Types of Rollups 

Use

By defining the rollup type, you define how the data is to be summarized. You can choose between the following rollup types:

Standard Rollup

In a standard rollup, you rollup data from one or more sender ledgers into one or more rollup ledgers, using one or more rollup sequences. To do this, you proceed as follows:

  1. Leave fields blank in field movement

Hierarchical Rollup

With a hierarchical rollup, you can summarize data from bottom to top from a source ledger, in accordance with a hierarchy structure of your choosing (such as a cost center hierarchy). In a hierarchical rollup, you rollup data according to the structure of the single-dimension set defined in your rollup header set.

Export Rollup

An export rollup is used to transfer data from local systems to a central system. You can transfer data in either unsummarized or summarized form (using field movement) and update it in the central system.

Special Periods

You can also roll up data for special periods (for example, 13 through 16) when you execute and/or reverse a rollup. For further information, see Special Periods and Rollup.
