Group Consolidation and consolidation of code part values

When we perform a consolidation, the elimination amounts from the Intercompany Elimination Rules are booked in consolidated company using Posting Control GCP11.

For this posting control, you can either use “fixed value” or ”intercompany Elimination Rule” as Control Type.

In the Intercompany Elimination Rules you define the rules on account level. So in Posting Control GCP11, you can on account level state that the elimination amount from a specific Elimination Rule should be booked on a specific account. However, for other code part values (product for example) you do not have this option.

Since the Intercompany Elimination Rules are only based on account, and no other code part values, you cannot use GCP11 with “GCC1 - Intercompany Elimination Rules” as control type and are therefore left with using “fixed value”. You then loose the split on the different code part values, as you are forced to book the entire elimination amount against one fixed code part value.

 

Does anyone have any tips on how we can post Intercompany Elimination Difference by using Intercompany elimination rule for Account, and use original code part values for other code part (for instance code part B - Product)?

Hi. We have tried in App 10.5 with no success. We have tried both Original and Posting Control. When using original Intercompany Elimination Difference is posted by posting rule GCP11. We have not been able to create postings for original code part values for code part B.

We will now test if there are any changes for this in App 10.8
