Consolidation (FI-LC)

Definition of how data is summarized into a rollup ledger.

For certain high-level reports and evaluations, the data in a ledger might be too detailed. Rollups are used to summarize this information from one or more (source) ledgers into a rollup ledger.

There are three types of rollups:

• Standard rollup

Rollup that summarizes data into one or more rollup ledgers using one or more rollup sequences.

• Hierarchical rollup

Rollup that summarizes data into a rollup ledger according to a specific hierarchical structure (for example, a cost center hierarchy).

• Export rollup

Rollup that summarizes data from local systems to central systems.
