Understanding Company Profiles

You set up company profiles to group companies for ICMS reporting purposes. For example, you might set up a company profile that includes all of the companies with which you do business that are located in a particular state.

The company profile that you want to use must exist in the GIA Company Profile table (F76B129) before you use the Extract GIA program to automatically generate GIA records or before you manually create a GIA. When you create a GIA either manually or automatically by using the Extract GIA program, you associate a GIA keyword (GIKW) with the company profile. The combination of the keyword and the company profile comprises the unique GIA identifier.

You use the Electronic GIA Company Profile program (P76B129) to set up company profiles.

Note:

You cannot display existing company profiles when you click Find on the Electronic GIA Company Profile form. You must complete the Company Profile field before you click Find; the system does not return any results if the field is blank. To view existing profiles, click Search next to the Company Profile field, and then click Find on the Electronic GIA Company Profile Search & Select form.
