Example: Consolidation in Two Group Currencies

The group CG1 has the following structure in the consolidation system:

Consolidation group CG3 has the group currency Swedish kronor (SEK). However, the consolidation group also needs to report its financial data in euros (EUR) to the corporate group.

In the copy task, you select Dependent on Consolidation Unit to determine that only the data of consolidation units CU3, CU4, and CU5 is to be copied.

The source version (version 100 in SEK) only contains CG3; whereas, the target version (version 200 in EUR) contains the entire consolidation group CG1, which includes CG3.

You define the copy method as follows:

Source version: 100; target version: 200

Source group currency: SEK; target group currency: EUR

The task hierarchy in the target version is arranged as follows:

Once all tasks have been successfully executed in the target version, the Consolidation Monitor shows the following:
