The following modules in BOSPrint has Branch filters providing the additional functionality:

Customers - In Customers Setups under the Accounting tab you are able to select a Branch. When a Customer is linked to a Branch, they can only be selected on a Quotation or Estimate which is linked to the same Branch. If the Branch on a Quotation or Estimate is changed, the Customer will be cleared if they are not linked to the newly selected Branch.
Cost Centres - Cost Centres has a Branch filter available and the Overhead linked to a Branch is assigned only to Cost Centres which are linked to the same Branch. Cost Centres that are not linked to a Branch are grouped together.
