In this step, subgroup master records can be

  • created

    Create a master record for every subgroup needed for consolidation or reporting.

  • changed

    You can maintain existing subgroup master records.

  • displayed

    You can display your subgroup master records.

  • deleted

    You can delete subgroup master records that were only created for testing purposes.

The subgroup master record contains a large amount of information. As with company maintenance you do not store all this information when you initially create a record. Some details, such as validation key for checking corporate values or the consolidation activity group for executing consolidation acivities in bundles, can only be entered after you have performed further steps in Customizing. You again have the opportunity to assign this information to the subgroup later in the customizing environment.

Activities

  1. List the subgroups you need.
  2. List which companies belong to the respective subgroups.
  3. Determine which companies of each subgroup are to be characterized as parent companies. In tiered groups the highest-level parent company is indicated as such. In horizontal structures (non-tiered groups) multiple parent companies can be indicated as such.
  4. Determine which automatic consolidation steps will (most likely) apply to the companies in each subgroup.
  5. Determine in which temporal intervals consolidation is to take place in the subgroups. This is denoted as the Consolidation Frequency in the subgroup master record.

    In case you require more frequencies, in addition to those delivered in the standard system, define these in the following IMG step.

  6. Determine the proportion of the companies for companies to be proportionately included in the consolidated financial statements.
  7. Create the subgroups in the system: Define a subgroup ID (max. three alphanumeric characters) that will uniquely identify the subgroup in the system.
  8. Enter the data noted above.
  9. If you run Step Consolidation, define a rollup company and determine the hierarchy level for every subgroup using the step "Extras".
