Running the Company Acquisition Wizard

The Acquisition Wizard is used when one company merges with, or is acquired by, another company. The wizard walks you through the process of combining the data records of the two companies, allowing you to select which information, as well as which contracts will be transferred to the acquiring company.

After running the Acquisition Wizard, the Company Profile of the acquiring company displays. The Wizard updates the status of the acquired company, and adds the name of the acquired company as an additional name (FKA) for the acquiring company.

In the Company Profile screen, click Admin Tools in the toolbar, and select Merger/Acquisition.
