As an alternative to manually creating consolidation units in the system, you can copy consolidation groups from a PC file in this step. In order to indicate the data format of the file, you need to define an upload method in the SAP System. You can then copy the consolidation units.

Standard settings

An upload method is preset in the standard system.

Activities

Proceed as follows:

  1. Specify the file format in an upload method. Check whether you can use the preset upload method for this.

    Since the master data of consolidation groups and consolidation units is similar, the same procedure for defining an upload method is used as for consolidation units. For detailed information, refer to the documentation Upload Method for Consolidation Units.

  2. Copy the consolidation groups from a data file to the SAP System.

    If you have already defined master data for a cons group in the SAP System, note that if master data for this consolidation group is subsequently uploaded, all the "old" master data for the group is overwritten. You therefore cannot use an upload merely to adjust certain elements of the master data.

Further notes

If you have copied consolidation groups and units to the SAP System using a flexible upload, you also need to create consolidation group hierarchies. You have the following alternatives to do this:
