Definition

The system distinguishes entries by posting levels.

This results in four types of entries:

  • Standardizing Entries are characterized by posting level 1 and are company-specific.
  • When making consolidating entries in pairs, two companies are always posted. Accordingly, this entry type - also known as an eliminating entry - has posting level 2. This level includes, for instance, entries for 100% eliminations of profit in inventory and profit in transferred assets.
  • Posting level 3 is used for capital consolidation.
  • Posting level 4 corresponds to level 3 except, that the trading partner is also posted. An example of this would be to perform a reclassification of Receivables from group members into External Receivables. This would ensure that only external amounts are reclassified.
