Multiple invoice contacts for one company

Here's a question from our Development team:

What are other people doing in the case when they have multiple invoice contacts at a company? For instance, suppose you have Company X and at some stage you do a sponsorship event for Department A of the company, which requires one invoice contact's name to appear on the invoice, but another time it's for Department B with a different company?

Do you create different constituent accounts for each department and turn it into a type of household where all the transactions can be seen together? Or do you put it all on the one constituent record, which creates the problem of having to change the main contact name every time you generate an invoice?

Or is there some other way that they haven't yet thought of?

 

Cheers,

 

Matt
