The transfer of consolidation data from the EC-CS component is one of the options for data transfer to EC-EIS that is delivered with the Standard. The transfer occurs using collection program FICEIS00, the sender structure FC07EIS, and associated transfer rules. When transferring consolidation data, you should note the following points:

Problem description

When carrying out elimination of IU profit and loss in the Consolidation, it is important to note time dependencies: For example, a case might occur where a subsidiary SUB1 has been acquired during the fiscal year being consolidated. In this case, it is important to separate the business transactions that occur between SUB1 and other subsidiaries before SUB1's acquisition from those that occur after the acquisition. An elimination of IU profit and loss may be made here only for transactions occurring after the acquisition. At the same time, however, it may be desirable to have another view of the IU profit and loss: for example, it may be of interest how the business results for a particular fiscal year would appear if the underlying group structure had been different. It should be possible to accommodate both commercial law and internal requirements.

Activities

In order to satisfy the requirements above, you should include two independent time periods in the target aspect:

  • The time period in which the business transactions occur. This is done implicitly via the fixed characteristic period that is mandatory for each aspect.
  • The time period for which the subsidiaries' attachment to the group is ascertained. Include two additional characteristics in the aspect for this: Period for consolidation group breakdown and year for consolidation group breakdown.

As reference currencies, you also require both the consolidation unit currency (local currency) and the consolidation group currency (group currency). The required tables are TF164 (local currency), TFEIS (a view of the tables TF184 (consolidation groups version/year-dependent) and TF200 (consolidation versions)), and T881 (ledger currency).

For the data transfer, use DDIC structure FC07EIS in association with sender structure FICEIS00.

Two cases are distinguished with regards to the transferred periods:

  • No task is specified when the data transfer is executed:

    In the selection screen of the collection program, ensure that periods 000 to 016 are transferred. Period 000 contains the balance carried forward from the previous fiscal year, whereas periods 001 to 016 contain the inventory changes during the selected fiscal year.

    Note: When no task is specified, no validation takes place at all.

  • A task is explicitly specified when data transfer is executed:

    A single value must be specified for the period and the cons chart of accounts.

    Note: When one task is specified, the system validates and, if applicable, updates the status of the consolidation unit or group. For more details see the documentation on SAP Consolidation.

Standard settings

Recommendation

Further notes

Note that after setting up the data transfer, you must set up a data slice for the reversal procedure. You must define the data slice conditions as follows:

Field name    Meaning    Lower limit    Report parameters

VERSIO    Version        VERSIO

PLACTI    Plan/act Ind    0

&PERI    Period/year        PERIO

xyz1    View        xyz1

xyz2    consolidation group        xyz2

xyz3    consolidation unit        xyz3

xyz4    Version        xyz4

xyz5    cons chart of accounts    xyz5

There should be no settings for any other SAP Consolidation fields (e.g. item or document type).
