Consolidation

SAP's consolidation supports both legal consolidation (legal independent entities) and

management consolidation (profit centers or business centers), with the new G/L you can

easily undertake company consolidation or profit center consolidation, without any additional

setup as the new G/L already contains the fields required for consolidation (trading partner,partner profit center and consolidation transaction type), you do not need any consolidation

staging ledger for company consolidation which you do for classic G/L accounting.

We will need to customize the below settings

General specifications Transaction types Company consolidation

General Settings

We start with the general specifications which include preparing the chart of accounts related

settings and the creation and assignment of transactions types for consolidation, besides the

settings required transferring the G/L data, lets assign the scenarios and customer fields to

ledgers we use the transaction code FAGL_SCENARIO_ASS, we configured this already in

Financial Global Settings and Company Code Parameters

The datadisk mobility company use CAUS as the operational chart of accounts and CONS as

the group chart of accounts, for consolidation we need to link these charts for correct value

flow, the first task in connecting the accounts in operational and group of charts of accounts

is to ensure that a group chart of accounts is available in the chart of accounts list, make surethat the group chart of accounts in the chart of accounts list is created using transaction code

OB13(seeFinancial Global Settings and Company Code Parameters), next we assign the

account groups to the group chart of accounts using transaction code OBD4 (see screenshot

below) ,

Now we assign the the group chart of accounts to the charts of accounts, you need to do this

for all the charts of accounts DDGB and DDJP, we use transaction code OB13,

Now we need to assign the group charts account numbers to the operational charts account

numbers (this can be done automatically or manually), make sure that the you have created

the financial statement version for the group chart, which should have happened when you

created that chart of accounts, if you want to create the account automatically use transaction

code OCCCor you can manually assign group accounts to operational accounts use

transaction FSP0,

Transaction Types

The transaction types help you in horizontal development of balance sheets (opening balance,

additions, reductions and closing balance), you can create special transaction types to

differentiate the consolidation transactions from others, you can validate account assignment

automatically or manually, we will use transaction code OC08,


3/5

If you have performed the following then you need to assign the asset transaction types using

transaction code OCBO, if you have not don the below then you can skip this step

Define your own asset transaction types or changed the standard ones in FI-AA Define any new consolidation transaction types or changed the standard ones

Next we set the transaction types as a required entry using transaction code OBC4,

Now we define the validation for account/transaction type using transaction code OB28, for

more information on validation see thedocumentsection

Company Consolidation

To consolidate the financial statements of all the legal entities of a company you need to

make the company assignment in the master data, as well as maintain the settings for parallel

valuation (we did this inFinancial Global Settings and Company Code Parameters).

inter-company elimination is a task when you prepare data consolidation as you need to

square off the payables and receivables between the participating companies in consolidation,

you can do this in two ways

4/5

1. Create the groups company codes as vendors and customers and assign the companyID in the master record (trading partnerunder the account control in the control tab),

for example you can create a vendor and customer for company code DD11 and

assign the company ID DD1000 in the trading partner field, this would be the same

for other company codes, during the posting of group-internal transactions the SAP

system uses this company ID from these master records and assigns the companycode as the trading partner thereby eliminating the receivable with payables and vice

versa

2. Create specific G/L accounts instead of vendor and customer master records and enterthe company ID in these G/L accounts, this way elimination happens through the

inter-company transfer postings, we have already created these G/L accounts (164011

- payables DD11, 164012 - payables DD12, etc, seeG/L accounting), see screenshot

below

Lastly we need to maintain the document types for transaction posting using transaction code

OBA7,

inter-company postgs- allow inter-company business transactions enter trading partner- allow users to input trading partner manually, this normally

should be transferred from the master data
