Consolidation at Entity Currency

Hi,
This may be silly question, but I am confused lately and can't seem to figure out the Value dimension in HFM.
I am consolidating a parent at <Entity Currency> and I see "OK" for all levels after it is done. I was doing some checks and when I changed my POV to "<Parent Currency>", it is still showing "CH" for some of base entities. How can this be? What is best practice to consolidate normally?
Thanks,
MP

Hi there,
I believe that the parent of this node has a different currency from the base entity of the node.
In order to be able to see the OK status in all Value dimensions, you should first consolidate the base entity of the node (if it is also a parent) and then run a calculate contribution.

  • How to block Entity Currency and make only ENtity Currency Adj available?

    Hi,
    I have some P&L accounts which need to be blocked for Entity currency but have a calculation in rules. These accounts still need to be available for journals. I have ensured that the Is Calculated is 'N'. Then I ve set up formulas for the accounts. Also I ve ensured that the accounts are non input for Entity Currency. The entity currency calculations are happening fine. I can even post journals but when I run a consolidation, the amount in ENtity Currency Adj dissapears.
    Thiis is the Sub routine for No input. I guess I'll need to add a HS.Clear for these accounts as well
    Sub PANDLNOINPUT()
         Dim sAccount, aAccountList
         aAccountList = HS.Account.List ("PANDLV2","[Base]")
         For Each sAccount In aAccountList
              HS.NoInput "A#" & sAccount & ".V#<Entity Currency>"
         Next
    End Sub
    Also for the calculation of teh P and L accounts, I have the following rules
    Calculate Cash Flow
    '=================================================================================================================
    Sub CalcCPandLFlow(sPOVScenario)
         Dim nVal
         Dim aCustom1List, sCustom1, aCustom4List, sCustom4
         Dim sPriorScenario
         aCustom1List = HS.Custom1.List("", "C1_AllBaseXNone")
         aCustom4List = HS.Custom4.List("", "C4_AllBaseXNone")
         sPriorScenario = GetPriorScenario(sPOVScenario)
         For Each sCustom1 In aCustom1List
              For Each sCustom4 In aCustom4List
                   'Operating Profit
                   nVal = HS.GetCell("A#B20201.C1#" & sCustom1 & ".C4#" & sCustom4 & ALL_TOPXC1XC4)
                   Call SetValPL("A#P20201.C1#" & sCustom1 & ".C4#" & sCustom4, nVal)
    Finally the sub routine for calculation is
    Sub SetValPL(sCFAccount, nVal)
              If nVal <> 0 Then
              Call HS.SetDataWithPOV(sCFAccount & ALL_NONEXC1XC4, nVal, False)
         Else
              Call HS.Clear(sCFAccount & ALL_NONEXC1XC4)
         End If
    Please help me as we are in year end. Need help desperately
    End Sub

    The clear action takes place within Sub SetValPL, but you are not limiting its exectution in the value dimension. As a result, the clear is being executed in every value member in which Sub Calculate runs. You must add a condition to allow it to only run when the point of view value member is not Entity Cur Adjs, or whenever you want it to. Generally speaking every rule in your file should at least have a value dimension condition with you determining when it should or should not execute.

  • Entity Currency Adj, Parent Currency adj for Parent-child with same currenc

    Hi,
    In 11.1.2.1 I noticed that if parent and base entity currencies are same, entity currency and entity currency adjustments equal parent currency and parent currency adjustments respectively. If the currencies are different, the entity currency total gets translated to parent currency and post that, we can pass adjustments at PCA level.
    I had an understanding that Entity Currency total always rolls upto Parent currency irrespective of whether the currencies of base and parent are same/different.
    Is this something new with version 11 or has it always been like this?
    Thanks,
    S

    I don't follow your explanation. To be very clear: <Parent Curr Adjs> is NOT the translation of <Entity Curr Adjs>. This will never happen. HFM takes <Entity Curr Total> and translates that into the target currency. The only time <Parent Curr Adjs> will equal <Entity Curr Adjs> is when they are indeed the very same currency. In that case there is no translation but instead two names for the same data set.

  • Parent & Entity Currency Adjustments

    Hi Guys,
    I have no idea of HFM :)
    We are receiving extracts from HFM which contains data at different levels (Entity Currency, Entity Currency Total, Entity Curr Adj, Parent Curr, Parent Curr Total, Parent Curr Adj).
    From these extracts we pick up the data for the levels at Parent Curr Total, Entity Curr, Entity Currency Adjustments, Parent Currency Adjustments.
    Out of these levels, the data at Entity Curr Adjustments(ECA) & Parent Curr Adjustments(PCA) get added up and gets flown into our Business Objects Report.
    I have seen the values for adjustments getting doubled up, I suppose this should not be happening.
    I now understand that ECA & PCA must not get added up. However i want to know and understand if only ECA must be processed.
    If so, then should PCA be ignored completely?
    Kindly provide me with some understanding of these terms, especially PCA & ECA.
    TIA
    Thx & Rgds

    Hi,
    It seems you need to understand the concept and how these are used.
    I would suggest you to go through these forums Calmly to get the understanding of these members:

  • HFM 11.1.1.3 ICP Report showing wrong value for Entity Currency Total

    Here is the situation.
    There are transactions on a ICP account (Entity Currency) 3.305.080
    A journal is posted to the same account with the same POV. 307.205
    When I run my ICP report on Entity currency i get the correct figure. 3.305.080
    When I rum my ICP report on Entity Currency Total I get a wrong figure 307.205 (Equalt Entity Currency Adjustment) where it should have been 3.612.285
    Any clues anybody?

    There is no limit. In reality there has not been a limit to the volume of data in a single subcube since paging was added in the 4.0 release. Certainly since 64 bit HFM was introduced there really is no limit to the amount of data in a subcube, or the database for that matter.
    Now that I've said that, 850,000 records in a single subcube is a lot of data. Prior to 4.0, the development team added an warning message when a subcube exceeded 100,000 records, but this was purely informational. You should still heed the notice. Most applications have a largest-cube size somewhere between 35,000 and 100,000 records (the top entity usually). While I've seen as many as a million records, you may experience performance problems at that point. Make sure you give the database and HFM app servers a lot of memory to handle this.
    Since HFM 11.1.2.2 with its configurable dimensions, data can be spread across many more intersections. In your example you have seven custom dimensions, so I can understand how you might have a normal amount of data in each base entity (a few hundred to maybe a couple thousand), but balloon to hundreds of thousands when you get to the top entity. HFM can process a lot of data very quickly, but be careful if you have rules that cycle through all those intersections, such as allocations or maybe cash flow by product.
    But there is no hard limit in HFM.

  • Account calculation vs. Entity currency total

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to solve one issue regarding an account calculation...
    This calculation is simple one and calculates the ratio between several accounts. Let's say C = A / B.
    I want this calculation to be run not only for <Entity currency>, but also for <Entity currency adjustments> and <Entity currency total>. For <Entity currency> and <Entity currency adjustments> it's working correctly and it calculates the ratio. But for <Entity currency total> it simply sums <Entity currency> and <Entity currency adjustments> which is not good.
    How to force HFM to use the calculation also for <Entity currency total> and override the default setting which just sums <Entity currency> and <Entity currency adjustments>?

    I have tried this but this is not working... See the printscreen: http://i52.tinypic.com/2hq8kdw.jpg
    Here is the rule:
    Sub Calculate()
    HS.EXP "A#c = A#a / A#b"

    Accounts "a" and "b" are set to revenue type, account "c" is balance type.
    Any other idea?

  • Consolidation in multiple currencies

    Hi there,
    I would like to translate consolidated results in two different currencies. Let's say, for example, USD and EUR.
    Do I need to create two alternative entity hierarchies whose parents def currencies are USD and EUR? Is there any other possible solutions?
    Any customized solution would do the job... even if  highlight me main technical choices, avoiding to disclosing details of your implementations.
    It's very useful to us because we wish to would like to maintain the opportunity to post Contribution Adjs.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    I will better explain my request:
    PREMISE:
    No Org by Period app; YTD consolidation
    Sub translation manages the convertion applying average YTD rate, opening or closing rate. Some accounts are translated at historical rate. Translation also manages the calculation of the currency translation reserve in equity.
    Consolidation manages the split of equity reserves between minority and group shares. This split involves also the currency translation reserve, by debiting the "Currency Translation Reserve" account and crediting the "Currency Translation Reserve - Minority Share" account.
    Users need to analyze contribution of each single legal entity (including the split effect) both in USD and EUR. In order to properly translate and consolidate figures the quickest and most reasonable solution would be that of creating two alternative hierarchies (one in USD and in EUR). However this turns into headakes when you have to post Contribution Adjs as these must be posted twice, one time in EUR and the other time in USD.
    My question is:
    is there a customized approach that allows me to avoid redundancy in posting Contribution Adjs and also reduce the number of alternative hierarchies? Have you ever faced similar issues? How did u solve them?
    Many thanks again

    Reporting Currency: If you selected a base entity, this dimension is displayed, enabling you to select the currency in which you want to run the translation.
    Rate EntityIf you selected a base entity, this dimension is displayed, enabling you to select the Rate Entity in which the exchange rates to be used are stored.
    This is due to the above factor. Would like to know where exactly base entity is getting selected.

  • Consolidating in another currency

    Our main entity hierarchy has base entities in a number of currencies, but all parents are USD. We have a need to translate and consolidate the same base data using the prior year's currency rates.
    The translation of base entities at the new rate is working fine, with the data stored in Value member "USDPY" instead of "USD". I was hoping that if I set a grid POV to value member "USDPY" HFM would consolidate the data into value member "USDPY" using the new rates. Instead, it consolidates the parents at the "USD" rate.
    We are aware that we could have an alternative hierarchy with all new parents having a parent currency of "USDPY", but we hate the idea of creating all of the new entities. It would be especially troublesome in writing reports or Smartview queries with columns for "USD" and "USDPY" with entities as the rows; each of the columns would have different parent entities for the rows.
    Is there any way to make this work with the original pattern and parent entities?

    Two options to do this would be: 1) Use an alternate scenario or 2) Use a custom dimension. You'd need a scenario (or custom member) for each alternate rate you want to use i.e. Prior Year. In option one you can write rules to copy data from your Actual (or Budget) scenario into your Act_at_Prior scenario. In option two, you'll need some additional rules to do the calc into the new base member. The driving factor of which option to use would be timing/availability of the data. In addition, if this is just a once a year or one off request, you could make a copy of the app, use it for the reports, then delete it.

  • Consolidation Unit - Local Currency

    Or is there any other better way to take care of this ?
    All answers would be duly appreciated and rewarded with points.

  • Consolidation (different currencies)

    We having trouble with an account balance not rolling up to the consolidated parent level.
    Hierarchy and the respective entity currency.
    Consolidated Parent (AUD)
    Sub consolidation (USD)
    Base Entity 1 (AUD)
    Base Entity 2 (AUD)
    What's been entered, (in the same "retained earnings other" account):
    Base Entity 1 has a USD Override of -0- (USD Override was entered in <Entity Currency>
    Base Entity 2 has a journal entry of *2,341* (value in USD, but the entry was entered in <Entity Curr Adjs>)
    Problem:
    Sub Consolidation Entity shows *2,341* (USD)
    Consolidated Parent shows -0- (USD)
    *Why does the Consolidated Parent show -0- instead of the 2,341 AND how do we fix it so the 2,341 rolls up to the Consolidated Parent?
    Of course, we're in a time crunch with this being our quarter end so any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    Good Afternoon
    You need to use translationa and/or valuation
    translation takes account in foreign currency and translates to group currency
    valuation takes account in currency 1 and restates into currency 2 for a company with currency 2
    so depends on which company you are consolidating for, a company in a foreign currency in that currency or consolidating a compnay in foreign currency to parent company in another currency

  • Display Currency Value of User POV for Entity & Value in Text Box (Header)

    I am looking for a function in Financial Reporting Studio that operates the same as the HsCurrency function in Smart View. This would allow batch reports displaying the currency value of the User POV for Entity based on the User POV for Value. Right now I have to have Member Lists for separate reports and different currencies as I am only able to display the Value dimension in the heading of a given report. Users will not be certain of the currency if the Value dimension is <Entity Curr Total>.
    I tried the HFMCurrency text function, however the entity is not defined in a Row / Column / Page reference as the entity is determined by the User's Point of View.
    Is there a way to display the currency value of a User's Point of View for Entity based on the User's Point of View for Value?
    Reference from Oracle Hyperion Smart View for Office, Fusion Edition, User's Guide:
    HsCurrency
    Data sources: Financial Management, Hyperion Enterprise
    HsCurrency retrieves the currency value of the specified dimension member. Entity and Value are the only valid members for the HsCurrency function.
    Syntax
    HsCurrency (“Connection,Entity;Value”)

    In this example, HsCurrency retrieves the entity currency where the currency for the East Sales entity is USD, and the currency for the UKSales entity is GBR. The EastSales entity displays USD, and UKSales displays GBR.

  • Currency Code of a Legal Entity - R12

    Hi,

    Based on what I have read and from e-TRM, I have written the following queries:
    select gsb.currency_code
      from hr_operating_units hou,

    where legal_entity_id=9999
       and ledger_category_code='PRIMARY';Which of these two is more accurate or is there some other way in which I can obtain the Legal Entity currency?
    Thanks,
    Sujoy
    Closing this thread as there have been no answers. I went with the second query.

    Hi Sandeep and thanks for your quick response.
    Our business problem is that this entity is very high volume pertaining to open purchase orders and invetory transactions. In essense the business stays exactly the same, the only change is that it will move to another country with an ownership change. We want the current R12 ledger, company and inventory orgs to stay the same. If the new entity cannot assume the current structure, we have a huge setup and conversion task to make the change.
    Again thanks for your quick response.
