Step by step Project, Time, Expense, Item

When setting up Pryme Intercompany Projects, it’s crucial to follow a structured approach to ensure that both the sending and receiving companies are properly configured for transferring projects and time entries. The process involves setting up Parties, Topics, and Subscriptions in the correct order. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you through the setup process.

In Pryme Intercompany Project, you can transfer data using two pre-defined templates. You can use these templates either separately or in combination, depending on the types of data you want to transfer between companies. Read more about it here.

• Time Entries - This template is used for transferring just the time entries.
• Project Ledger Entries - This template includes time entries, as well as expenses and item entries.

For two-ways data transfer, set up the Topics and Subscriptions in both companies.
