In Productive, a subsidiary is a separate branch of your organization that allows you to invoice clients using billing information other than your primary one.

This feature is especially useful for businesses that have multiple offices, geographic locations, or divisions that operate separately.

Setting up subsidiaries enables you to simplify your invoicing processes, maintain accurate financial records, and provide clear, location-specific billing information to your clients.

When you first create an account in Productive, you will enter your primary company information, such as the name, address, and Tax ID, which will be stored in Settings > Company info.

However, if your organization has multiple offices or branches that require separate billing and administrative options, you can add subsidiaries there to efficiently manage these requirements.

To add a subsidiary to your account, follow these steps:

Once you have added all your subsidiaries, you can create the necessary document templates for easier navigation.

These templates can be used for invoices, deal proposals, budget proposals, and purchase orders.

To set up document templates:

When creating a budget or deal, you'll need to assign it to a specific subsidiary.

However, when generating an invoice, you can choose from any of your active subsidiaries using the invoice wizard.

The document templates you previously created will also be available as options to select from. This ensures that each invoice reflects the correct subsidiary details.
