    I believe I read Wayne indicated steps to use a single form for multiple companies. In this case AP checks. Of course I can edit the default form but that goes away upon upgrade. Can someone point me in the right direction. Currently I create a separate form for each company and use explorer to copy.

    I'm pretty sure you are going to do this through the Report Manager in Library Master Setup.

    Put it in MAS_System/Reports and make sure any folders with the same form code are removed from the MAS_XXX/Reports. The thing to warn users about is if they click the Designer button it won't edit the MAS_System form, but instead create a new company form that will take precedence for that company.

    I usually create a form via report manager and specify all companies, all users. This should create a form under the reports folder of MAS_system. Then follow @PhilMcIntosh instructions. I have also had to manually edit the various report tables for information that points to MAS_xxx reports. I think there are three that I look at. Disable the designer button so users don't create reports. I do this during the initial company set up. After the fact is more difficult due to the various ""pointers"" created.

    There was also a post several years ago detailing how to create new forms (e.g. SO_PickingSheet4.rpt) that could be used as master forms. I will dig that up if anyone is interested.
