Operating Company is confusing concept, and uncessary when you only have one

In a lot of screens, especially creation screens (create division, create order), the Operating Company drop down appears for 95% customers with only one value ever being valid or offered... which is pointless, requires an extra click or tab, and clutters screen.

What's more, the concept of an operating company is actually confusing for someone who only has one - and takes a bit of explaining. Anything that needs explaining is a bad thing in modern software. When you have two companies, having a drop down to choose which one to do a quote for makes perfect sense. When you only have one, having to choose your own company (from a list of one) when trying to do a quote for a customer (company) makes no sense whatsoever.

Can we hide/remove this field automatically whenever there is only one operating company?
