The following describes how you specify which interface type the system should use when transferring G/L consolidation transactions for an originating company into a corporate company. The actual transfer procedure is described in Update the corporate company.

Note: This program can only be reached if you are working in a corporate company.

This program holds the value of the interface type for each originating company connected to the corporate company you are working in. The connection is established in the Work with consolidation company hierarchy routine described in Define the consolidated relationship between the corporate and originating company.

  1. Select the Work with consolidation transfer controls menu item.
  2. You access Consolidation transfer controls which lists all the originating companies valid for company consolidation related to the corporate company you are working in. Select the applicable company code.
  3. You access Consolidation transfer controls, Details. Complete the following field:
  4. Interface type
    Enter the type, from Work with interface types, that should be used when transferring G/L consolidation transactions for the originating company you selected on the previous panel.

    Note: The interface type must be unique for each originating company for the following reasons:

    • If the same interface type is used for more than one originating company, all transferred values will end up in the same journal, if they are transferred at the same time. In case you need to run a new total update for the originating company, you must be able to eliminate previously updated postings for the same period in each specific originating company.
    • To avoid partial removals of vouchers in one journal in the corporate company during automatic update.

    Exit the routine and continue by following the instructions in Update the corporate company.
