Common Franchise Management Challenges

Managing a franchise network comes with its own set of challenges. From handling intercompany transactions to ensuring efficient multi-entity journal posting, these issues can end up slowing down your operations and impacting accuracy:

Manual intercompany transactions are time-consuming and prone to errors, creating inefficiencies for your team.

Switching between entities for journal postings increases the risk of errors and slows down your operations.

Without global data sharing, consolidating financial data and reporting across locations becomes a complex challenge.

Manually setting up legal entities is a slow, resource-intensive process that delays your ability to scale.

Generating consolidated financial statements and tracking performance across locations is difficult without advanced tools.

Dynamics 365 Finance for Franchise Management Accounting

Dynamics 365 Finance is a powerful franchise ERP system that can save your business hours of accounting work. With tools for multi-company management, financial reporting, and centralized control, you can finally streamline operations, cut costs, and make smarter decisions that ripple across every location. While it may have some accounting automation limitations, Avantiico’s Advanced Multi-Company Solution — a D365 add-on — can fill those gaps.

Use Cases

Multi-Country Franchise Operations

If your franchise operates in multiple countries, Dynamics 365 Finance can simplify compliance with local regulations while maintaining global financial standards. The platform supports multi-currency transactions, tax calculations, and localized reporting.

Franchise Expansion and Onboarding

Dynamics 365 Finance accelerates the onboarding process for new franchise locations by providing rapid replication of financial configurations and master data, reducing setup time and ensuring consistency across your franchise network.

Enhanced Budgeting and Forecasting

Dynamics 365 Finance supports advanced budgeting and forecasting tools, allowing you to plan for growth, allocate resources effectively, and monitor financial performance in real-time.

Key Features

Dynamics 365 Finance allows franchises to manage financial operations across multiple entities from a single platform. Features like a global Chart of Accounts, financial dimensions, and account structures ensure consistency and compliance across all locations.

The platform supports multi-company accounting, enabling franchises to manage multiple legal entities as a unified group. This reduces duplication, improves reporting accuracy, and speeds up implementation for new franchise locations.

With cross-company data sharing, franchises can synchronize configurations, master data, and financial dimensions across entities. This ensures uniformity and reduces the time required to set up new franchise locations.

Legal entity overrides allow franchises to customize financial dimensions and account structures for specific entities while maintaining a global Chart of Accounts. This ensures flexibility without compromising consistency.

Dynamics 365 Finance provides powerful reporting tools that enable franchises to generate consolidated financial statements, track performance across locations, and make data-driven decisions.
