Couples of the feature associated with partition are as:

- Intercompany doesn’t work across partitions
- The companies between two partitions cannot be merged and Intercompany features cannot be used. the only option is to use Data migration tool kit for data export import between partitions
- we can know the current partition through ‘getcurrentpartitionrecid()’ similar to ‘curext()’

- Share System Data like Batch Job, AIF port etc. Across the Partition
- Share Application Data like User, Product, Location, Parties etc. within the partition
