Consolidation is in Use

This checkpoint is relevant for both org.-dependent and in-dependent conversion.

Consolidation means creating consolidated fiscal statements for a group of companies based on the financial statements of the individual subsidiaries. The relevant SAP components is EC-CS.

Background:

For Org-Independent conversion:

In consolidation, it is possible that sometimes consolidation tables receive data from external system.

In this case there might occur problems converting tables related to consolidation.

For Org-dependent conversion:

The consolidation data is structured by companies and business areas; org. delimitation in our specific sense (by KOKRS, BUKRS, WERKS and so on) is not possible. Consequently, the default setting is that these tables do not participate in the fiscal year conversion.

Alternatively, you can decide that everything should be converted if it is clear that all data in the consolidation tables belongs to the participating company codes.

The following tables are relevant:

- All tables for which the recommended conversion routine is FY_KONS_GJAHR*

- Tables whose IDs start with FILC* or ECM*, and table GLT2.

How to Proceed:

  • If this check ends successfully ( status GREEN ), no action is required.
  • If this check ends with warning ( status YELLOW ), following actions can be performed.

For Org-Independent conversion:

  • In consolidation it is possible that sometimes consolidation tables receive data from external system. If this is not the case tables must be included in the conversion; this is done in activity "Consider Analysis Results' else we recommend that you contact SAP for support at an early stage of the project by creating a ticket using component CA-LT.

For Org-dependent conversion:

  • If everything in these tables is meant to be covered by the conversion, the tables must be included in the conversion; this is done in activity "Consider Analysis Results".
  • If you do not want to convert everything or exclude the tables, but delimitation by org. units should take place for these tables, we recommend that you contact SAP for support at an early stage of the project by creating a ticket using component CA-LT. The ticket should contain the activities and task that you use in consolidation. Below is the list of activities and tasks present in consolidation:

a) Data Monitor

b) Manual data entry

c) Consolidation Monitor

d) Flexible upload function

e) Currency translation in consolidation

f) Consolidation of investment task

g) Manual posting
