Background -

Alpine Ski House has three partially owned franchises and 10 fully owned resorts throughout the United States and Canada. Alpine Ski House's percentage ownership of the franchises is between two and 10 percent.

Alpine Ski House is undergoing an implementation of Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to transform their financial management and logistics capabilities across the franchises. Implementation is complete for Alpine Ski House's corporate offices, two US franchises, and one

Canadian franchise. The remaining franchises are in varying stages of the implementation. Two new resort projects are in the budget planning stages and will open in the next fiscal year.

Current environment -

Organization and general ledger -

Each franchise is set up as a legal entity in Dynamics 365 Finance.

Alpine Ski House Corporate uses financial dimensions for their fully owned resorts.

Each resort is a financial dimension named resort.

Each fully owned resort has two divisions: marketing and operations.

Only Profit and Loss account postings require the division dimension.

Corporate handles the advertising and administration of the fully owned resorts.

Corporate uses Dynamics 365 Project Management and Accounting to manage construction of new resorts.

Budgeting -

Organizational budgeting is decentralized but rolls up to one organizational corporate budget.

Each resort manager performs budgeting in Dynamics 365 Finance.

Budget preparation begins this month. All operational resorts will submit their budgets in two weeks.

Sales and tax -

Sales tax is configured and used by all resorts that operate in the United States.

You configure one US sales tax vendor account and assign the vendor account to the settlement periods for reporting.

You use accounts receivable charges to track donations.

Existing purchasing contracts -

Each franchise resort has an individual contract with a local supplier of their choosing to purchase at least $10,000 worth of suppliers during the calendar year.

The franchise resorts in one US state receive a two percent discount on meat and vegetable purchases in excess of $8,000 per year.

A franchise resort in Utah has agreed to purchase 1,000 units of beef at market price from a local supplier.

Alpine Ski House uses a vendor collaboration portal to track purchase orders and requests for quotes.

Vendors request access to the vendor collaboration portal by using a workflow which runs on a nightly schedule.

Intercompany setup -

Vendor123 resides in US franchise Company1 and is set up for intercompany transactions. Customer345 resides in Canada franchise Company1 and is set up for intercompany transactions.

Requirements -

Franchises -

Each franchise must pay two percent of monthly sales to Alpine Ski House Corporate.

One percent of all pack and individual ski pass sales must be donated quarterly to an environmental protection organization.

The finance department must be able to see purchasing contracts and discounts for vendors based on volume spend.

Employees -

All employee expense reports that contain the word entertainment must be reviewed for audit purposes. If a journal is posted incorrectly, the entire journal and not just the incorrect line must be fully reversed for audit purposes.
