Company¶

In Gem Logic, a Company represents your company’s core identity, legal entity, and operational structure.

Configuration¶

To set up a company, follow these steps:

Configure the company details.
Set up divisions.
Configure VAT rates.

Company Details¶

To configure your company, go to Configuration ‣ Companies and configure the following fields:

Business name: The official name of your company.
Company number: Your company registration number.
TAX/VAT number: Your tax or VAT identification number.
Country: The country where your company is registered.
Currency: The currency used for all transactions.
PEPPOL identifier: Your PEPPOL network identifier for electronic invoicing.
EORI number: Economic Operators Registration and Identification number for customs.

Invoice Settings¶

Invoice prefix: Prefix added before invoice numbers (e.g., (year)- creates 2024-0001).
Invoice suffix: Suffix added after invoice numbers.
Invoice numbering start: The starting number for invoice numbering.
Credit note prefix: Prefix for credit note numbers.
Start date: The date your company started operating.

Note

Only one company can be set as the default at a time. If you mark a company as default, any previously default company will be updated automatically.

Divisions¶

Divisions represent subdivisions within a company, such as regional offices, departments, or separate brands that operate under a common parent company. Each division can have its own branding, contact information, and document settings while remaining part of the same legal entity.

Note

If you have independent subsidiaries with separate legal identities, these should be created as additional companies, not divisions.

Configuration¶

Each division is linked to its parent company but may contain different or specific information, such as its address, logo, or document footer texts.

To create a division, go to Configuration ‣ Company and add a new division under your company. Configure the following fields:

Division name: The official name of the division.
Spoken name: An alternative name used in communication (e.g., a brand name).
Bank account number: The IBAN for this division.
Primary division: Check this to make it the main division.

Important

Only one division per company can be set as primary. If you mark a division as primary, any previously primary division will be updated automatically.

Logo: The logo displayed on documents for this division.
Logo alignment: Choose between Left, Center, or Right alignment.

Document footer texts¶

Each division can have custom header and footer texts for different document types. This allows you to include specific terms, conditions, or legal information on your company documents.

Header text: Text displayed at the top of all documents.

TAX/VAT Rates¶

Each company can have multiple VAT rates configured. This is useful when your products or services are subject to different tax rates (e.g., 0%, 6%, 12%, 21%).

To manage VAT rates, go to Configuration ‣ Companies and configure the following:

VAT rate: The percentage rate.
Name: An optional name for the rate (e.g., “Reduced rate”, “Standard rate”).
Default: Mark one rate as the default to be automatically applied to new products.
Extra rate: An additional rate that may apply in specific cases.
Extra rate cap: A maximum limit for the extra rate.

Note

Only one VAT rate can be set as default per company.
