In this step you determine the type of data transfer that is to take place between the transaction applications and the Consolidation application. The following types of consolidation are supported for integration with SAP transaction applications, depending on which SAP Consolidation component you implement at your group's headquarters:

This Implementation Guide describes the configuration for consolidation using the SAP component.

Requirements

All other settings in the section Integration: Preparation for Consolidation should be defined prior to making the settings described in this step.

Activities

  1. Specify which corporate group the companies in this SAP system report to.
  2. Specify which fiscal year variant is used for the consolidation financial statements.
  3. Specify for which consolidation types the data is transferred.
  4. Choose one of the following data transfer methods for each consolidation type.

    If you choose realtime update or periodic extract as a consolidation type, keep in mind that realtime updating is activated as soon as you save your settings.

Further notes

When you save your settings, the system checks the following:

  • Have all the necessary assignments been made between the transaction accounts and the group accounts?

    The system checks this for all relevant transaction charts of accounts that are assigned to a group chart of accounts.

  • Are the sender field and the default subitem maintained for all subitem categories?
  • Do the company codes and the companies assigned to them use the same local currency?

The following customizing settings are automatically made when you save:

  • If the sender and receiver of consolidation data reside in a central system, the data transfer method is entered in the master data of the relevant consolidation units. The method is saved for a particular special version for data entry.

    You can choose in a dialog box as well, that the system enters the consolidation fiscal year variant for all ledgers assigned to the integrated consolidation units used by integrated consolidation types.

  • If you have selected periodic extract, the consolidation staging ledger is assigned to all company codes that have a company assigned to them.

Note on transports

These settings cannot be transported. You must define the settings for each client in each system.
