It all depends on how much linking you want to have between the two products, and what you want to link. There are many ways of linking, using WBS, Resource Categories, Act IDs, Activity Codes, Project Codes to name a few,
I think you should establish what info you want to get out of primavera first, and then take a copy of a Project and have a play by adding codes, changing them etc etc to see if you get the results you are expecting.

Hello Willem,
I have experience the same situation.
I followed Masterformat 2004 in our company coding structure.
I also use the following cost account categories:
for direct cost:
Materials, Labors, Equipment, Sub-contractors
for indirect cost:
Overhead, Contingency, Miscellaneous, Minor Tools, Tax, Profit.
I hope this will help.
Many thanks,
Scarllet
