2 cons units - Comp & PC

Hi guys,
I have Company set up as a Consolidation Unit...Also need to set up Profit Center as Consolidation Unit
1) Is this the right method...why if no
2) if yes, then what are the steps to implement it
Thanks

raf,
I said that it's completely dependant on your requirements.
In general:
If you have a requirement to have balance sheet for two ConsUntits simultaneously: for companies and profit centers, then, probably, you may go for a matrix consolidation. It will allow you to make consolidation for two dimensions at once, without reconciliation.
But it's difficult to set up, maintain and use.
If you need for PC just a P&L, then you'd better go for PC as a subassignment.
It's also true if you have two teams of people responsible for legal and management consolidation. In this case, for the sake of authorization, you may use two separate data bases, without a matrix.
That's in general.

  • Cons unit may now post in ledger US in FY variant K4

    hi,
    When i run the cxcd data collection task using the data monitor i get this error message :- Cons unit 66210 may now post in ledger US in FY variant K4.
    May i know the reason to this?

    Hi Raj,
    It's very difficult to find out the source of error only using the error message. In many consolidation error message, it does not provide sufficient information to track down the source of error.
    So what you can do is to look around the possible source of error. I guess, you must check the consistency setting for the ledger, roll up method, currency and also fiscal year variant.
    Have you also check the opened fiscal year?

  • Cons Units with diff LC and GC & Currency Translation.

    Hello,
    My question is regarding Currency Tanslation;
    We have some cons units which has different LC and GC (Ex: EUR and USD). These cons units does not require currency  translation in BCS as the group currency value coming from R/3 is already translated. If I do not include these cons units in the task the system is throwing an error in the monitor saying "Currency Trans Task cannnot be executed".
    Is there a way I can configure in the method or task to ignore some cons units from Currency translation even though the local currency is different from group currency.
    Thanks

    Hi Anoop
    Currency translation occur on LC.  Check in the Cons unit master data regarding local currency and check in reported data which values are getting either LC or GC (Ex: EUR and USD)

  • Document Type clearing items - "Clearing - Cons Unit" Item

    We have the matrix organisational structure - both company and profit centre have the Consolidation Unit role.
    We have a "Clearing - Cons Unit" clearing Item for certain document types.
    Now the client wants to restrict the clearing item so that it only applies one way, i.e;
    1 Company and 2 PCs is ok - therefore post a clearing item
    2 Companies and 1PC is not ok - therefore we want an error / no posting to clearing item
    There is no option available in the document type to make such a setting.
    I tried validations per document, but when clearing is posted to in a manual document, the document is actually split into 2 documents (one per consolidation unit (combination of company/PC)) so the validation will treat both scenarios (1Co/2PCs or 1PC, 2Cos) in the same way
    of course, it would be possible to validate in a separate task but we want the validation to take place at the time of entry.
    Any suggestions?

    re-opening, had to close due to SDN error on max number of open questions (supposedly 10 but recently this failed).
    NB no urgency, no longer required at my client, interesting little challenge though.

  • Cons unit change at year end

    Hi : )
    when performing a cons unit change at the end of the year whereby the old cons group becomes unnecessary as no cons unit is part of it in period 1/2011, do I have to delete the cons group as well from the new hierarchy starting on the 1.01.2011 or do I just delete the cons units out of this old cons group?
    Also, as we will have a new cons group and cons unit hierarchy starting from the 1.01.2011 will we not be having a problem displaying period 12/2010 data come January as the hierachy then used in the queries will only have the new structure, i.e. the moved cons units sitting under the new cons group??? Our queries are currently set up to select the hierachy using the default query date...
    Your views would be very much appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Tanja

    Thanks Dan : )
    The configuration document that I received mentions to deleting the cons unit in the 1st period following the consolidation group change. So because I am divesting the cons unit in period 12/2010 I interpreted that I can delete the cons unit from the old cons group in period 1/2011 including the old cons group as there are no more cons units within it.
    But this will be causing us problems in January for period 12/2010 reporting as the new hierarchy starting on 1/1/2011 that is picked by the queries due to default query date will not be have the old cons group.
    So I think by what you said to leave the cons unit and cons group until the year over year reporting is finished will solve our problem.
    But here is the example anyway. Maybe there is a different way:
    Cons unit A is the only cons unit under Cons Group A and is divested as at 12/2010
    Cons unit A is acquired into a new never before existed Cons Group C as at 12/2010
    So the currently valid hierachy is valid from 01.01.2010 - 31.12.2010 with Cons unit A now residing in 2 places
    In period 1/2011 I deleted Cons unit A under Cons Group A and also deleted cons Group A.
    This created a new hierachy that is valid from 01.01.2011- 31.12.9999
    So in I am correct in assuming that if our queries use default query date that we will have a problem trying to report on period 12/2010 data in January?
    Kind regards,
    Tanja

  • Cons Unit name in UCMON different than in UCWB

    Dear team,
    I've a question concerning master data of cons unit . Following issue appears:
    I know that cons unit is time dependent:  the old cons unit name was only valid until 31.12.2009. After this date there are several entries with different valid to dates, but medium and also long name never changed afterwards.
    Example:
    ConsUnit --- Valid from --- Valid to - long name- medium name
    3456 ---  01.12.2009 --- 31.12.2009 --- Old LE name long --- Old LE name
    3456 --- 01.01.2010 --- 31.03.2010 --- The new name in long --- New name
    3456 --- 01.04.2010 --- 30.04.2010 --- The new name in long --- New name
    3456 --- 01.05.2010 --- 31.05.2010 --- The new name in long --- New name
    3456 --- 01.06.2010 --- 31.12.9999 --- The new name in long --- New name
    If I go thru ucwb --> master data --> consolidation units --> 3456, then I see the following entries:
    Name
      Medium: New name
      Long: The new name in long
    So I do see the latest valid entries in ucwb and I assumed to see the same in UCMON. But if I open ucmon for instance for period 005/2010  I see that the old name is displayed instead of the new name. Curious is that if I click on "filter unit" in ucmon that I then get the corret name in the filter menu - but only there! Unfortunately, I still get the old name in the monitor even though the filter menu shows the new name.
    Do you've any suggestion how I can solve this issue or what might be the reason for the different names in UCMON and UCWB?
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Best Regards,
    Daniel

    This sounds like a minor bug. I suggest you search SAP Notes for solution and if none is found notify SAP via customer message.

  • Treatment for horizontal transfer of cons unit

    Hi All,
    Suppose there are two cons groups-'Group A and Group B'- both in the same level in the hierarchy.
    Cons Unit 1 is present in Group A.
    In 6/2009, Cons unit 1 was moved from Group A to Group B. This is a horizontal move, so in Group B, 6/2009 will be the First consolidation and divested in Group B in 6/2009.
    Now in 3/2010, Cons unit 1 is moved back from Group B. This is also a horizontal move, so it will be divested in Group B in 3/2010. But my question is what will be the first consolidation in Group A?
    Will it be the old first consolidation date that was present for this unit in Group A historically(12/2007) or should it be changed to 3/2010.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Regards,
    Mohan

    Dear Mohan,
    As per my analysis, In this case we need not to maintain 2007 after the transfer of LE from Group B to A in 2010 - 003.
    For our further analysis it would be helpfull,  If you can mention why would u need to maintain historical date (2007)in consolidation unit master data rather current date (2010)?
    Thanks

  • Can Cons Group and Cons Unit hierarchies be used together?

    We have Consolidation Group hierarchy defined in our BCS system.  However, this hierarchy is not used for Budget data.  Would it be possible to create a Consolidation Unit hierarchy in addition to the Consolidation Group hierarchy, to be used for Budget?  Consolidation Group hierarchy already consists of Consolidation Units, so I wasn't sure if this was going to be possible.
    I am a BW developer and have never done any development in BCS.  I am asking this on behalf of a BCS user.  I apologize if this question is too simple for this forum, but I would really appreciate it if someone could give me a quick answer to my question.
    Thank you.
    Nadia

    I agree with Eugene that you can have different hierarchies for different purposes.
    However one caution is that if you are using consolidation of investments and/or cons group changes tasks the result will differ between the hierarchies overall unless these tasks are executed separately for each hierarchy.

  • EC-CS -Error G00022 while integrating Cons Units and Company in CXNT

    Hi,
    The question is related to EC-CS ( Enterprise controlling - Consolidation.)
    While integrating the Consolidation units with Company in t code CXNT,  the system gives an error message as below:
    Default value to char. Partner unit does not exist for value CO from char. Dimension
    Message no. G00022
    Diagnosis
    Default values must be maintained for the characteristic Partner unit. Numerous consolidation functions use this default value.
    The characteristic Partner unit is in a compounding relationship with the characteristic Dimension and is dependent on its characteristic value. For the value CO of the independent characteristic Dimension no default value is maintained.
    Procedure
    Maintain for every value of the independent characteristic Dimension a default value for the characteristic Partner unit.
    I don't understand the configuration missing for the above eror. Any help is appreciated.

  • SEM-BCS: Need to limit execution of Task to Particular Cons. Unit

    Hi! All,
    I have reclass that is limited to certain company code say 1000 that I define in Method. However, when the same task in Monitor for any other company code say 4312, the system runs the reclass and gives an Error message like “Error in Cons Unit Processing - You have set up cross-consolidation unit reclassification. You want to reclassify data from one consolidation unit to another. An error occurred in this process. This error prevents the documents involved from being saved”. How can I limit the Reclass task from being performed by 4312……The monitor shows this task for all cons. Units…...
    Thanks for your input.

  • SEM-BCS: Cons Group Field Required for Inter-Unit Elimination

    Hi!
    I need help.
    I need to use document type for manual postings that allows me to indicate the cons group field.
    I understand the PL10 is cons unit dependent only and not cons group.
    I know that PL12 allows cons group posting.
    But from what I understand PL12 is not captured in the inter-unit elimation task.
    Is there other way?
    Appreciate response.

    Hi Adam and Eugene,
    Thanks for the helpful response.
    However I want my manual entries related to inter-unit elimination to reflect in one cons group only,  considering that we have different hierarchies in our system.
    The manual entries related to I/U elimation is basically an adjustment to the intercompany accounts. The purpose of my manual entries is to minimize the value of the difference of my intercompany accounts.
    for example: (before interunit elimination)
    Company A has intercompany accounts receivable of 100 USD with trading partner Company B
    However, Company B recorded 50 USD intercompany payable with trading partner Company A. Company B has understated figure of 50 USd
    To manually adjust in the BCS system,  I'll post in Company B debit inventory and credit intercompany payable 50 with trading partner Company A.
    Question is I want my adjusting entries to relfect only at the top hierarchy (one cons  group) and not at the other cons group
    Is there a way?
    Please advice.
    Thank you so much

  • Quiero dejar y evidenciar mi opinion respecto al Iphone y que todos pueda leerlo pero en una pagina oficial del producto ya que tengo derecho a exponer mi insatisfaccion con este deplorable y costoso producto, donde lo puedo hacer?

    Quiero iniciar este comentario indicando que el IPHONE es y fue la peor compra de mi vida. Anteriormente era usuario de teléfonos Nokia y posteriormente BlackBerry. Toco hacer la renovación de mi contrato con la compañía celular y me ofrecieron un Iphone, lo que sería mi primer teléfono de Apple y contando con la infinidad de promesas del producto y su muy mal aplicado plan de PRODUCTO MAS CARO DEL MERCADO POR MAYOR CALIDAD pues decidí aceptar la renovación con este producto y pagando más dinero de lo que normalmente pagaría por un teléfono, pues les comento….. GRAVE ERROR!! Muy grave error. Como dicen por ahí, no se sabe lo que se tiene hasta que se pierde. Era feliz con mis teléfonos BlackBerry.
    Primer problema, la batería. Creo que deberían permitir a los usuarios de Iphone poder ponerle un conector para usar un par de baterías energizer porque apuesto a que el conejito con el tambor dura mil horas más que la batería del Iphone 5, por eso debería permitirnos conectarle la batería de nuestra preferencia. Aunque hasta altura, creo que el Iphone necesita más una batería de carro con un alternador conectado a nuestros pies para poder mantener la batería de carro cargada porque si la dejamos sola con el iphone no duraría ni 2 horas.
    Segundo problema, quien les dijo a la gente de Apple que resulta divertido y usuable obligar a los usuarios de sus productos a que solo puedan conectar el teléfono a una sola computadora sin tener que hacer malabares y millones de configuraciones para que no te borre los datos cargados previamente?.
    Tercera decepción, para el dinero que resulta de la inversión de comprar un Iphone, creo que al menos deberían estar constantemente monitoreando la satisfacción del cliente respecto al producto y aun mas, monitorear la atención que dan las operadoras que venden sus productos porque la verdad es que dejan mucho que desear. La señora que me vende el café todos los días me atiende mil veces mejor que en cualquiera de los operadores que venden sus productos.
    Cuarta decepción, me di cuenta que lo que realmente estoy pagando al comprar un Iphone 5 es decir que tengo un Iphone 5, un estatus, porque contrario a la calidad que se obtiene con esto deja mucho, demasiado que desear. De no ser por el dinero que pague desde la segunda semana de haber adquirido su producto ya lo habría empleado como sujetapapeles y me habría comprado nuevamente un BlackBerry.
    Quinta decepción, el falso cristal irrompible y que jamás se pueda rayar. Maravillado con que un cuchillo o una llave o todas las pruebas que hacen en internet no generaba ningún desgaste en el cristal, pues les falto guardar el teléfono en el bolsillo de sus pantalones junto a una tarjeta de crédito o una tarjeta plástica por una semana de su vida cotidiana y encontrarse con que efectivamente, tendrá mil marcas y adiós a la supuesta pantalla que no se raya.
    Sexta decepción, yo tengo una maestría en administración de tecnologías y sistemas, no soy geólogo ni ingeniero industrial o alguna rama del saber referente a los materiales, pero en mi poco conocimiento del tema, yo esperaba que una supuesta carcasa de aluminio fuera más resistente que el plástico o al menos  que soportara más que este, y mi sorpresa se encuentra al ocurrirme un incidente en el cual mi teléfono tuvo una caída de una altura aproximada de 9 centímetros de separación de mi mano a una mesa con tope de piedra. Tal incidente basto para que mi supuesto maravilloso producto de Apple con carcasa de aluminio se le hiciera una marca del tamaño y calibre como la que se le hizo a mi Blackberry 9520 cuando lo soltaron desde un primer piso de un edificio. Debo destacar que después de colocarle la batería y la tapa a mi blackberry, este funciono perfectamente, cosa que después de 9 centímetros de altura en el Iphone 5 les doy por garantía que este se podría pulverizar.
    Séptima decepción, hoy hice entrega de lo que considero el producto más decepcionante que adquirí en mi vida al operador Movistar de México para hacer valida su garantía y resulta que me indican que deberán mandar a reparación el teléfono y me entregan a cambio un teléfono que no llegaría a decirse que es de gamma baja, porque no existe una calificación menor, el mismo con sistema Android, y para mi sorpresa me doy cuenta que este teléfono de juguete tiene un mejor sistema operativo que el Iphone 5 que adquirí por muchísimo dinero, y este teléfono de juguete no cuesta ni lo que costaría los audífonos de Apple. Aunado a esto, tengo que esperar más de 15 días para que me regrese mi tamagochi (mascota virtual de la época de los 90) con la casi total seguridad de ser el mismo producto de porquería.
    Octava decepción, uno diría que un producto que la empresa se jacte de decir que es inteligente, podría manejar varias aplicaciones a la vez, exactamente la cámara fotográfica y una aplicación que usa GPS al mismo tiempo y tener su rendimiento casi al 100%. Sorpresa, es totalmente falso ya que el rendimiento de la batería se reduce al 50% aunado a una lentitud sorprendente y a que el teléfono entre en un estado catatónico de shock y se apague para que cuando lo intentes encender te de la indicación de que la batería se terminó y si esperas unos 20 minutos lo intentes encender y este lo haga como por arte de magia, eso sí, con el indicador de batería más bajo aun de lo que lo habías dejado al momento de apagarse.
    Novena decepción, después de un costo de cerca de 9mil pesos mexicanos por un Iphone 5 que según yo era el teléfono de punta, resulta que el mismo producto que yo compre 45 días después bajo su precio cerca del 40% debido a que en el mercado se encontraba el nuevo Iphone 5S (letra S correspondiente a ****?, sopenco?, sátira?, sonso?), porque resulta que a Apple le parece interesante sacar una nueva versión de sus productos cada 6 meses para que la costosa inversión que hagas al termino de 6 meses tenga un costo de la mitad.
    Señores de Apple, tengan por entendido que estoy completamente decepcionado de la calidad de su producto el cual se encuentra excesivamente sobre valorado en cuestión de costo/calidad, costo/beneficio y costo/satisfacción y tal vez no les importe en lo absoluto la opinión de una persona, pero esta persona al menos podrá dar la peor referencia de su producto a unas 100 personas, y tal vez de esas 100 personas al menos el 5% seguirá mi recomendación y así sucesivamente llegare a más personas. Y tal vez esto no les importe ya que no representaría ni el 1% de los ingresos de su compañía, pero les puedo jurar que cada vez que pueda en lo que resta de mi vida, daré una recomendación a todo el que conozca, JAMAS COMPRES UN PRODUCTO APPLE, porque jamás tendrás la calidad que esperas por el costo que tiene.
