Enable control accounts for new legal entity

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 22

Hi, 

I am creating a new legal entity to be used for consolidation only. We will only upload the trial balance at the end of the month. Is there a way to enable control accounts for this new legal entity only.

I am not sure if there is a way to override this option.

Thanks,

    Hi,

    Wondering why do you need to run consolidation only for trial balance? 

    Isn't MR an option to cater this requirement?

    Hi, 

    I believe Finance Management would like to have the data in the system, and use MR for reporting as you mentioned.

    Thanks.

    But while using MR also you can drill down to transactions level.

    Yes, for this acquired new legal entity, we will not have the transactions. We only have the trial balance.

    Exactly that I am saying,

    You can create MR and add all the legal entity for trial balance and that would be visible in a accumulated view as a total trial balance.

    Sure, what are the steps to bring the data in the accumulated view. The data is in excel so far.

    You can create a report with Two legal entity and use sum option to consolidate that two LE, accumulated view will be created.
