Consolidation Rules Formulas table

Hi,
I am working on a Legal Consolidation application in BPC7.0 MS version and have completed the legal consolidation using the standard rules that are configured by SAP BPC. Now the client wants to understand what the significance of the "IntCo Method" is in the Consolidation Rules Fomula table.
I have not found any documentation with information on why the Intco method is required. Does anyone have any information on the same?
Thanks,
Prasanth.

Hi,
The "Consolidation Rules Formula" table controls how the amounts or the destination accounts should be calculated. The behavior is controlled by the rule being used, the consolidation method assigned to the current entity, and its INTERCOMPANY partner, if applicable.
One of the fields in the above table is "IntCo Method", which is, a valid Entity Method, as defined in the Consolidation Method table, a list of entity methods separated by commas, or 99 for all methods. Whatever you specify in this field should be present in "Method Code" column in the "Consolidation methods" table. This is just an ID which is fetched from "Consolidation Rule" table and based on this, the corresponding "Method Type" is fetched from the "Consolidation Rule" table. For example, it might be Holding, or Equity, etc.
Hope it helps.

  • Consolidation Rules Formulas

    Dear Expert,
    When I saw the consolidation example in Appshell Appset and I review the business rule "Consolidation Rules Formulas". That business rule contains the fields like as: Rule ID, Entity Method, Intco Method, All Formula, Group Formula, Minority Formula, and Remark. I just know that the field "Entity Method" and "Intco Method" contains the method code from the business rule "Consolidation Methods".
    I have the questions like as:
    1. We can input the field "Entity Method" and "Intco Method" only one code or the sequence of code in the business rule "Consolidation Rules Formulas". What is the different that we input one code with the several code ?  
    2. What is the uses of the field "All Formula", "Group Formula", "Minority Formula" ?
    Thank you very much for your answer and I really appreciate it.
    Best Regards,

    I am very hesitant to agree that merging the Method Based Multipliers will give the same result as keeping them separate, in the IFRS starter kit.
    As an example, how will you be able to develop an Elimination and Adjustment Rule that targets Newly Acquired companies and differentiate them from existing companies, in addition to treatment of mergers.
    These methods (Leaving, Merger, Step Acquisition, Newly Acquired Purchase and Newly Acquired Equity) are distinguished in the method ID, then grouped through Method Based Multipliers. NOT for the purpose of the equation only (ALL FORMULA, GROUP and MINORITY), but also since the Elimination and Adjustment Rule does not have an Entity Field or Method Field, it has METHOD Multiplier.
    To explain, Line one of the Method Based Multiplier addresses Existing Companies that have intercompany values with Existing Companies. Line two addresses Existing Companies that have intercompany values with newly Acquired companies, leaving, merged and so on.
    Line three addresses newly acquired companies, leaving and so on with existing companies. and line four, newly acquired, leaving, ect... with newly acquired, leaving, ect...
    Now the question is, how will you develop an elimination and adjustment rule that targets newly acquired companies, moves the data from F00 to F01, under the Audit_ID INPUT11, for the consoscope and the same month, then conduct the elimination. Or divested to be moved to F98, in addition to other flow/AUDIT_ID treatment. These are different than Existing companies that will not need to be moved from F00 to F01....
    To add to it, how will you be able to differentiate in your ELIM and ADJUST Rules between:
    All entities but Leaving
    All but leaving, divested Interco
    Newly Divested
    Step Acquisition
    Step Divestment
    These methods cannot be grouped in the same method multipliers of the existing companies, as the ELIM and ADJUST rules have their field limitations and run on "Entity Group" as per Ownership Model. Thus the need to have these multiple Method Multipliers, despite having the same ALL_FORMULA, GROUP and MINORITY.
    As for ALL_FORMULA, it is usually 1. which means automatically -1. this is to eliminate mainly the amount.
    Group formula and minority formula are both referenced in the method multiplier (PCON, PCON-POWN, POWN, ect...) and dictate the amounts that will be posted and eliminated.
    Minority is used for Equity type ownership, where the holding company owns less that 50% (since proportionate is no longer used in consolidated). it targets the Retained Earning of the held company (equity owned) and eliminates the value. then it reflects the % of ownership of the RE on the
    Minority Interest Account of the Held company's consolidated Balance sheet. So if the holding company owns 25% of Company A, and the NI of the held company is 100 USD, the Minority Field in the formula is dictating that only 25 USD is reflected on the Minority Interest of the consolidated company's balance sheet. Meanwhile, all formula is posting the inverse of the amounts for all accounts and group is posting yet another calculation.

  • How to use complex function as condition in Oracle Rule Decision Table?

    How to use complex function as condition in Oracle Rule Decision Table?
    We want to compare an incoming date range with the date defined in the rules. This date comparison is based on the input date in the fact & the date as defined for each rule. Can this be done in a decision table?

    I see a couple of problems here.
    First, what you posted below is not a syntactically valid query. It seems to be part of a larger query, specifically, this looks to be only the GROUP BY clause of a query.

As you discovered, if you attempt to do so, you'll find it doesn't work. If you stop and think about how SQL is processed, it should make sense to you why the SQL is not valid.
    If you want to apply a filter condition such as:
    trunc(max(RD.DATERECEIVED)) BETWEEN TO_DATE('01/08/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') AND TO_DATE('01/08/2011','DD/MM/YYYY')you should do it in a HAVING clause, not a where clause:

    Hi!
    Anyone aware how to get todays' date in the Transfer Rules Formula Editor?
    Aim is to calculate ones actual age based on a given birthday-month-year using the dateDifference function.

    Hi,
    The summary of both posts:
    Use a formula
    DATE_DIFF( SYST-DATUM, BDAY)
    As you understand, the difference will be in days.

  • This entry already exists in tax formula table "OFML" (ODBC-2035)

    Hi,
           I am getting an error while creating any tax formula in SAP "This entry already exists in tax formula table "OFML" (ODBC-2035) " . I have checked that there is no such type of formula in SAP. Kindly let me know if some one has the solution.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jai

    Jai,
    I had the same problem. Some SQL tracing revealed that the ONNM table was out of synch with OFML
    To resolve this, I got the last ID used in OFML:
    select MAX(absid)
    from OFML
    Returned: 28
    Then looked at ONNM
    select *
    from ONNM
    where ObjectCode= '276'
    Returned: 28 (it should apparently be the next ID to use)
    update ONNM
    set AutoKey = '29'
    where ObjectCode= '276'
    Then go out of the formula screen, open a new one and insert again
    It worked for me...

  • How do we use Data rules/error table for source validation?

    How do we use Data rules/error table for source validation?
    We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.3.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.3.33. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
    I reviewed the posting
    Re: Using Data Rules
    Thanks for this forum.
    I want to apply data rules to source table/view and rule violated rows should go to defined error table. Here is an example.
    Table ProjectA
    Pro_ID Number(10)
    Project_name Varchar(50)
    Pro_date Date
    As per above posting, I created the table in object editor, created the data rule
    NAME_NOT_NULL (ie project name not null). I specified the shadow table name as ProjectA_ERR
    In mapping editor, I have projectA as source. I did not find error table name and defined data rules in table properties. It is not showing up the ERR group in source table
    How do we bring the defined data rules and error table into mapping?
    Are there any additional steps/process?
    Any idea ?
    Thanks in advance.
    RI

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply/pointer. I reviewed the blog. It is interesting.
    What is the version of OWB used in this blog?
    After defining data rule/shadow table, I deployed the table via CC. It created a error table and created the all the source coulmns in alphabatical order. If I have the primary key as 1st coulmn (which does not start with 'A') in my source, it will apprear middle of of columns in error table.
    How do we prevent/workaround this?
    If I have source(view) in sch A, how do we create Error table in Sch B for source(view)?
    Is it feasible?
    I brought the error table details in mapping. Configured the data rules/error tables.
    If I picked up 'MOVE TO ERROR' option, I am getting "VLD-2802 Missing delete matching criteria in table. the condition is needed because the operator contain at least one data rule with a MOVE TO ERROR action"
    On condition Loading - I have 'All constraints' for matching criteria.
    I changed to "no constraints' still I get the above error.
    If I change to 'REPORT' option instead of 'MOVE TO ERROR' option, error goes off.
    Any idea?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Consolidation rules

    If the consolidation rules paraemter is set to No in Application settings, will the other rules in the rule file be run?
    i.e The rule file contains all subroutines except Consolidate since the default consolidation needs to be run.
    Will HFM execute the rule file when calculate or translate is run?

    yes the rules will run, it will just ignore the SubConsolidate() and run up the tree and consolidate...

  • Oracle Business Rules decision tables - export

    This is a beginner's question.. Suppose that you want to use an Oracle Business Rules (OBR) decision table, for example to check company’s eligibility for financing based on their country and business type (PRIVATE or PUBLIC). You would define a corresponding decision table in JDeveloper with true/false assignments in the Actions. Is it possible to export this decision table somehow? Ideally we would want to have a web service returning the decision table data as XML, which would then be used to generate PDF or a dynamic webpage etc. Then we would have OBR as the only point of data entry.

  • Elimination in Consolidation rule

    Hi,
    I have a doubt on Elimination in Consolidation rule.
    Following is the scenario coppied from comma.rle from Comma application(Sample Applications)
    Assume dpcon=80, dpmin=20
    dPCon = HS.Node.PCon("")
    ' Here Pcon value is called. On basing our asumption dpcon will be 80% now.
    *call HS.Con("V#[Elimination]",-1*dPCon,"")*
    ` Here the 2nd argument is -1*dpCon.
    `Will the system take it as 100-dpcon(20) or -1*dpCon(-80)?
    `Will this value will be consolidated to parent entity under [Elimination](value dimension)?
    *call HS.Con("V#[Elimination].A#" & strPlug,dPCon,"")*
    `Here the dpCon(80%) is transferred to plug account under [Elimination](Value) - What is its necessary to transfer 80% of value to plug account under elimination.
    Please explain with the assumed values or example.
    Edited by: user8452342 on Jul 22, 2011 4:05 AM

    I think you're asking how the PCon parameter works: during consolidation, the HS.Con function multiplies the data value for the current record by the PCon value. If PCon is 80 and the data value is 200 for example, this will consolidate 0.80 * 200 = 160. This will be written to the [Elimination] node you specified. In your example you also multiply the result by -1, so the consolidating value will be -160.

  • Function Module Interface for Agent Determination Rule without Tables Param

    Hi,
    I'm currently trying to create an agent determination rule using a custom function module. I know that the function module must have a certain interface consisting of two table parameters to be accepted by the system.
    But since table parameters are obsolete for a few years, what's the solution for this?
    As workaround, I just copied an old function module with the right interface but that's not an ideal solution for me.
    Did anyone else come across this?
    Thanks and regards,
    Max

    Hello,
    "I know that the function module must have a certain interface consisting of two table parameters to be accepted by the system."
    So, you have to use tables. You can't use tables in a new function, but you can copy one that does.
    What sort of "solution" did you have in mind?
