Omit GL accounts from consolidation

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I am trying to consolidate two companies that have a number of historical G/L accounts that are not used any more and the balance is zero in all open periods. In my consolidation file I would like to only consolidate the acrive accounts, but I cannot seem to find a way to omit the unused ones.

If this is not possible then I am aware that G/L accounts can be deleted and I could do this from the subsidiary TBs, but then as these accounts have been used in the past, how can that work? f I was to pull a TB from a past year would this not balance as the account would be missing?

Thanks in advance!

    Easiest solution is to create an account in the consolidated company, point all the subsidiary accounts desired to this new account. It should consolidate to zero and your good to go.
