# Organisation structure

Last modified February 19, 2026

> In the Organisation structure workspace of Visma Net, you can configure the structure of your organisation to consist of a single branch or multiple branches with different reporting settings to suit complex reporting requirements and data consolidation needs.


All branches
of the organisation use the same currency and chart of accounts, and have shared
lists of trade partners.
You can configure automatic balancing of inter-branch
transactions.
If the branches operate separately, you can set up user access to
specific branches only.

For additional information, see the following topics:

+ [About companies](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/organisation-structure/about-companies/index.md)

+ [About multi-branch support](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/organisation-structure/about-multi-branch-support/index.md)
+ [About security of organisation branches](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/access-management/row-level-security/manage-visibility-with-restriction-groups/about-security-of-organisation-branches/index.md)

You can also build a company tree, which is a model of your organisation's hierarchy that
includes branches and departments, as well as temporary or permanent work groups.

The
company tree may reflect the administrative hierarchy and include sub-hierarchies of
work groups created within specific branches or departments.

The company tree is used
for escalating approvals of documents when they become overdue and for determining
the scope of the users who want to view items assigned to them.
