My friend and I are starting a power business on Scylla , I am the CEO and he, the CFO.I have business 4, so I placed our vendor, and i manage it and all the money gets put into my account. I think there should be a way for us to set up a joint bank account, that we could both access. I suppose I could just give him half of the profits, but we want a more structured way of doing this. We are both on admin at our store, and i thought that maybe i could load all the company's money into the vendor as maintenance, and we could use that like an account, but sadly he isn't allowed to remove maintenance. Does anyone know of any way we could handle the money in our business, besides tipping each other?

If you let him offer the power to your vendor at half the sales price you get an equal share without bank tips all the time. I know it might not be ideal, but there is no way of vendor sharing or bank account sharing in SWG atm, and there probably never will be.

thanks, we might do that. I just wish there were more features that would make co-owned business easier and more equal to run.

I have my associates offer an item to the vendor equal to the amount that I owe them.

That way I don't have to pay for the item up front but they have to trust that I will report the sale to them.

I usually just forward all the sale emails to them.

You could use a PA hall as your business HQ/ I know it sucks up lots, but you can add/remove credits from the treasury, which is in effect, the maintenance pool. If one of you can afford it, perhaps getting an alt account just for this is the way to go, plus an additional three lots to put harvesters on.
