In this current program you create a company consolidation file for the startup of opening balances for originating companies. Normally, you only do this once for each company.
Selection
In the two fields below, make the selections for the creation of the originating company’s consolidation data.
- Closing balance year
- Select the closing balance year to include in the selection. The entered year will represent the opening balances at start-up in the corporate company. The closing balances will be updated in the last period in the interface file (SROCIB) according to the total number of periods defined in the G/L control file for the selected year.
Example: Consolidation types 1, 2, and 3 will be updated with consolidation type 1, exchange rate parameters.
- Conversion report
- Indicate if you want to print a conversion report of the accounts that can be converted successfully. An error report showing accounts that are/will not be transferred successfully is always printed.
