INTERCO.PARAMETER
INTERCO.PARAMETER file contains the details of whether a multicompany accounting environment is being used and the identifying details of the customer account number for each company. Only one record (SYSTEM) on this file. If the record is missing then T24 assumes that a single company accounting environment exists. If you require inter-company accounting then you must input and authorise this record SYSTEM before creating the second company. Before this record is authorised for an inter-company accounting environment the record INTERCO must be present on the ACCOUNT.CLASS file.
