Minority Interest calculation and consolidation

Hi people. i am new to HFM. I am kind of stuck with Minority Interest calculation and the consolidation of it. Now after looking at different posts on the minority interest calculation here , i am still confused if we could use the calculation expression for Minority Interest calculation within Sub Consolidate() or should we include it in Sub Calculate(). Please find below the script that i am working on.
SCRIPT :
Sub Consolidate()
Method=HS.Node.Method("")
PCon=HS.Node.PCon("")
POwn=HS.Node.POwn("")
vMIN=1-HS.Node.POwn("")
PMin=PCon-POwn
Dim strAccount,i
Set DataUnit=HS.OpenDataUnit("")
NumItems=DataUnit.GetNumItems
For i=0 to NumItems-1
Call DataUnit.GetItem(i,strAccount,ICP,Custom1,Custom2,Custom3,Custom4,Data)
If Method="Holding" Then
Call HS.Con("",PCon,"")
End If
If Method="Global" Then
If StrAccount = "281100" Then
Call HS.Con("A#281100",PMin,"PMin")
'Call HS.Con("A#281000",vMIN,"")
Else
Call HS.Con("",POwn,"")
End If
End If
'If HS.Account.IsConsolidated(strAccount) and Data0 Then
'If Data0 Then
'HS.Con "A#"&strAccount,POwn,""
'If StrAccount = "281100" Then
'HS.Con "",PMin,""
'End If
'End If
'End If
Next
End sub
Sub Calculate()
HS.EXP "A#281100 = A#CapitalStock - A#Investments"
End Sub
My Doubts :
1. Is the expression correct for Minority Interest calculation ?
2. If so can we use it in Sub Consolidate() ?
3. Should the Minority Interest consolidate to its parent using PMin ? If so kindly provide the appropriate expression.
Looking forward to some help. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If I got it correctly, you don't want the A#281100 calculation to happen for your holding company. There is a preferable way to do your consolidation that avoids involving the Calculate() altogether. So scrap your Calculate and write this Consolidate() instead:
Sub Consolidate()
Method=HS.Node.Method("")
PCon=HS.Node.PCon("")
POwn=HS.Node.POwn("")
vMIN=1-HS.Node.POwn("")
PMin=PCon-POwn
Dim strAccount,i
Set DataUnit=HS.OpenDataUnit("")
NumItems=DataUnit.GetNumItems
For i=0 to NumItems-1
Call DataUnit.GetItem(i,strAccount,ICP,Custom1,Custom2,Custom3,Custom4,Data)
If Method="Holding" Then
Call HS.Con("",PCon,"")End If
If Method="Global" Then
If StrAccount = "CapitalStock" Then
Call HS.Con("",POwn,"")
Call HS.Con("A#281100",PMin,"")ElseIf StrAccount = "Investments" Then
Call HS.Con("",POwn,"")
Call HS.Con("A#281100", (-1) * PMin,"")Else
Call HS.Con("",POwn,"")End IfEnd IfNextEnd subWith this code, the minority interest will calculate only for entities using the Global method.
I did not drive you to this solution immediately in order to avoid to confuse you, as well as because this does not address the issue of Calculation() running at many Value levels.

Minority Interest Calculation in Consolidation

Hi,
How is Minority Interest Calculation Handled in a Group Company or in Consolidated Balance Sheets. How it can be shown in SAP?
Reagrds

What we did is set up a calc in the calculate subroutine that caculates minority interest and puts it to the elimination company.
If HS.Entity.UD1("")="RETAILCONSELIM" Then
HS.Exp "A#MINORITYINTSUBS=(E#SUSSERCO.A#NETINCOME.W#Periodic"&{All_Top}&"*.1482)"
End IF

IFRS requirement , minority interest calculation and accounting for in SAP.

hi ,
We need financial consolidation with full consolidation , equity interest, minority interest as per IFRS requirements along with inter company eliminations
Will it be possible thru ECCS or we need to go to SEM suite.
thanks
KR

Hi,
With Virtual Ledgers in Ecc 5.0 and 6.0 we can customise few things and connected to ECCS module.
If you have BI,SEM modules implemented then it is better to go with Consolidation modules rather than ECCS.

Calculation and Consolidation

Hi,
I am new to HFM. Anybody please explain "what is Calculation and Consolidation"
Thanks in advance

Actually Calculation is a set of rules that run against the chart of accounts, and writes data back to the database. It runs up to 8 time for each entity.
Consolidation is the process of Calculation, Translation, Elimination then add the values to the parent entity (Aggregation) – This is the accounting process that gets you to a single trial balance for a total company.
Within HFM, there is also a ‘consolidation routine’, that moves data from the Parent Total Member to the Proportion and Elimination Value members.

Minority Interest in Subsequent Consolidation

Hi Experts
Is there a way to ensure that the P&L account for MI is posted in the COI task for the Subsequent Consolidation activity?, we have scenarios with percentage of ownership < 100% that should generate the minority interest in P&L.
We have the proper configuration in the "Appropriation of Retained Earnings" --> "Net Income" --> "Minority Interest in Net Income" option. See following thread: SEM-BCS Minority Interest in Income Statement
In the consolidation area we have selected the Appropiation of Retained Earnings "in Income Statement". See following thread: Diference beetwen app of ret earnings in BALANCE Vs INCOME STAT
In the execution of the COI task for the subsequent consolidation activity, only the Balance Sheet postings (for the RE and MI) and the statistical Net Income Postings appear in the posting document, the P&L account for MI is missing.
Are we missing something?
Regards
Paul

Thanks for the reponse, we tested with both options in the consolidation area and neither of them gave us the desired posting in the PL account.
Addtional Information that might me useful:
Accounting Technique: Purchase Method
Acquisition: Direct Share
Investment Data comes from Additional Financial Data
Equity Data comes from Totals Database (hence the RE comes from here)

Interest calculation and Invoicing

Hello
I'm looking for a way to generate an invoice follow the calculation of the interest.
Is there some one does alreday this or not ?
For information, we are using ECC 6 without CRM module.
Thanks for your help
Philippe

Hello Philippe,
Firstly you will need to create a documenyt typ ein OAB7 for this interest calculation button. Also create a number range in FBN1.
Then You can change the document type for the Interest calculation using the
following customizing setting:
    IMG path:
Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable
        -> Business Transactions -> Interest Calculation -> Interest
        Posting -> A/R: Calculation of Interest on Arrears
    Here you can select Goto -> Document type and you select the
    required document type.
hope this helps

Minority Interest on Ownership Change

Dear All,
How to achieve Minority Interest on Ownership Change in the same financial Year.
For Example: For April Ownership and Minority interest is 60% and 40% respectively and PROFIT is YTD 1000.
On that period, Minority will be calculated at 40% and value would be 400.
Next Period, May month - ownership has been changed to 80% and 20% and profit value is YTD 2000.
In this period, Minority should be calculated on two values, which 40% is on 1000 (april's value) and 20% on 1000 which May's value.
Total would be 400 + 200 = 600
How to achieve this in HFM. If we uncheck ConsolidateYTD in scenario view, then system will calculate minority as per the requirement. But, if we uncheck this, then ZeroviewforAdj and ZeroviewfornonAdj has to be periodic and any adjustment requiered, then only periodic value needs to be inputed. But, data load is happening with YTD values (TB values been loaded with YTD value). Any impact on Flow(P&L) / Balance (Balancesheet) accounts if we use periodic values for adjustment.
If we check ConsolidateYTD, then minority interest will be calculated at that month's minority interest % on YTD value.
If month is april then, 40% on 1000 and if month is may then 20% on 2000 = 400 ( which is not right on profit value).
Also, if we uncheck ConsolidateYTD, and having ZeroviewforAdj and ZeroviewfornonAdj with YTD will not give right figure.
Is any other way to approach or achieve minority interest calculation as shown above.
Kindly share your ideas and approach.
Regards,
Raj-

Hi Raj,
Although the manual mentions that ZeroView and ConsolidateYTD should be aligned, I don't think that Oracle should impose this. The reason is that the combination ConsolidateYTD = No with ZeroView = YTD works alright provided you keep some precautions. To make it clear lets consider this: ZeroView can impact two things:
1. future periods, not having and real data loaded (we can just ignore these periods - why bother consolidating them? so this is no problem).
2. intermediate empty periods, which is the case, when we keep both quarterly and monthly data in the same scenario, then periods intermediate to the quarters are left empty.
In any case, ZeroView impacts periods that you don't want to load data, if data is loaded to the period, there is no issue with calculating the consolidated numbers.
So, our discussion is limited to the second case, where we have quarterly data, intermediate months are zero ConsolidateYTD = No and ZeroView = YTD. Then as soon as you set the right consolidation options, your numbers will consolidate correctly in quarters. Lets say that we have numbers in March with 60% and June 40%. Provided that you also make April and May Active and apply the 40% from April through June, then everything calculates correctly. However, if you apply 60% to April and May and 40% to June or leave Active = No for April and May, then numbers will not calculate correctly.
In fact this is my preferred configuration, and it has never let me down.

Dunning interest calculation

Hi All,
When I checked table MHND, the dunning interest is calculated in such a way that it doesn't consider the previous dunned date.
Meaning :
Dunning ran on 12-01-09 interest calculated is 500.00 ( 2 docuemnst considerded from bsid as seen from table MHND )
Dunning ran on 15-01.09 interest calculated is 500.00 ( same as above)
Ideally for Dunning ran on 15-01.09 , it should not calculate interest since on 12th it is done..!!
Now queries:
1. Where can i see these interest calculated during dunning run ( any report ? ) other than table..? In std SAP, is this interest
calculated and shown only in the dunning letter ..? Does it have any other financial impact on outstanding..?
2. when I try to run the single dunn. notice, and see sample print out it gives message as
Account D 0004298846 is blocked by dunning run 20090319 MDUN1
why is it so and how to resolve..?
thanks,
Neha

can some one provide some advice on this..?
thanks,

Interest calculation type-Z-Penalty Interest Calculation

Hi all !!
I would like to know about the Interest calculation type-Z-Penalty Interest Calculation, if it is necesary to do some aditional customizing , and which are the differences between Item Interest Calculation and Penalty Interest Calculation.
Best regards and thanks all

Thanks Chandra,
Could you give us some links where we can find more info of how to configure/run this specific issue of calculate interest on interest and other aspects of penalty interest calculation.
The other point if it is possible or there is a way to depending on open items for a same vendor have a different interest indicator, I mean something like a field at the financial document in order to choose between different type of interest indicators.
Best regards and thanks

"Interest on Arrears calculation" vs "Item Interest Calculation"

Hi all,
Could anyone explain me the difference between "Interest on Arrears calculation" and "Item Interest Calculation" and in what cases they are used.
Thanks,
DSK.

Item Interest Calculation
    In this activity you make the general settings for the individual
    interest indicators for the item interest calculation
     These include settings for selecting the items and for
    calculating the interest. You can also enter specifications for interest
    postprocessing, output control, and for posting.
Account Balance Interest Calculation
     In this step you make general specifications for each interest indicator
     for the account balance interest calculation. These include
     determination of the period, the interest determination, the subsequent
     processing of interest, the output control for printing forms as well as
     the terms of payment

Posting interest calculated in Dunning run

Hi SAP Guru's,
I have set up item interest calculation and dunning run.
When I make a dunning run, I can see the interest being calculated but it is not getting posted automatically.
Also the interest calculated during dunning is not getting reflected in the dunning letter.
Can you please help me with posting of interest from dunning run.
Thanks in advance
Br.,
Neeraj

Dear Neeraj,
Interest amounts are not posted in FI standard dunning. The interest
amount is calculated and displayed in the list/ in the pintout,
but it is not posted - so there are no new documents that you can
see in FBL5N.
Please read for Your info notes 156985 and 82995.
I hope this helps You.

Laurynas Prikockis

Hi,
thanks, this option im trying to implement. But something is not going right.
ive changed the FM from one to other and tryed to use BTE 1720, regarding BTE 1040 ive got some problems since i didnt find the exact place where to put it.
the second issue was that after changing one FM like FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE into FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_SMARTF we had to maintain smart form. I did also this step, but running f150 the program doesnt start it. It shows that print is completed and thats all.

Balance interest calculation on vendors

Hi,
Is it possible to calculate interest on vendor balances?
I did all the settings for interest calculation and assigned the interest indicator to the vendor master. When I run the interest calculation program (Free Selection) a batch input session is generated but ZERO transactions are processed in the session. I made a vendor posting as well as a part payment. I want to calculated interest on the open items.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance
Raj

Dear Raj,
are You asking if it is possible to calculate the interest on items (on arrears) on vendors?
The answer is yes.
You should use the report RFINTITAP. There is an old one RFKUZI00 but please use the new one; You can use the transaction FINTAP as well.
There are a lot of steps to do: create an interest indicator linked to P (interest calc. type) --> ITEM INTEREST CALCULATION, then You to define the item selection by IMG -->
Prepare Interest on Arrears Calculation
Prepare Item Interest Calculation
and then customize the following steps:
Define Time-Based Terms
Interest on Arrears Calculation (Vendors)
Then insert the relevant interest indicator into the vendor master data.
I hope this can help.
