Multiple Ledgers for Seamless Organization


Midaz provides the capability to create multiple Ledgers for each organization, offering enhanced flexibility and control. This feature is particularly beneficial for companies with diverse operational needs, such as separating financial records by country, department, or specific business function.

Example Use Case

Consider a global enterprise with business in multiple regions:

  • Ledger 1: US Business
  • Ledger 2: EU Business
  • Ledger 3: APAC Business

By using separate Ledgers, the company can maintain region-specific transaction records, tax considerations, and currency settings while retaining a unified oversight of all operations.


Customizing Ledgers for Specific Needs


One of the standout features of Ledgers in Midaz is the ability to tailor configurations based on individual requirements. For example, the same asset can be configured differently in separate Ledgers:

Example
To represent Bitcoin (BTC) with unique settings across Ledgers:

  • Ledger 1: BTC with 10 decimal places
  • Ledger 2: BTC with 20 decimal places

In this case, you simply create the BTC asset independently in each Ledger, applying the necessary configuration.

This approach enables granular control over asset management, aligning with specific operational or regulatory needs.

  • Custom Configurations: Adjust asset settings, currencies, or other parameters per Ledger to meet localized or departmental needs.
  • Scalability: Easily add or modify Ledgers as your organization grows or diversifies.
