Displaying Standardizing Entries 

Use

From a corporate perspective, it is sometimes necessary to post standardizing entries or other manual adjustments that cannot be automated or foreseen. These postings can also be made through a task in a data monitor.

Procedure

  1. Call up the transaction as follows:
  2. Menu Path

    Accounting ® Enterprise Controlling ® Consolidation ® Data collection ® Monitor

    Transaction Code

    CXCD

  3. Choose to expand the hierarchy tree.
  4. Select the combination ManStdEnty and C3000 and choose Test run.
  5. The executed standardizing entry can be viewed. The task does not have to be unblocked for this.

  6. Enter 1000000002 in the Document number field and choose .
  7. Choose the Line items tab page to see the amortization adjustment.
  8. The first two lines represent the actual posting (FS items 191500 and 311950). The right column under Auto contains no figures, therefore you recognize the outgoing posting. The Machinery and Equipment asset account was reduced by 5000, and the same amount appears as an offsetting entry for Depreciation – Machinery and Equipment.

    The next two line items were generated automatically, and represent the resulting financial statement imbalance. The figure 1 is displayed in the right column under Auto, which indicates that the line items stem from the financial statement imbalance. Position the cursor on the "1" and press F1 to display the online documentation.

    The last two lines were also generated automatically as tax allocation. This is indicated by the number 2. A tax rate of 60% for deferred taxes was defined in the master record of the companies, therefore the system can calculate the tax adjustment and the financial statement imbalance.

  9. By double-clicking on one of the line items you get to the Display Entry: Line Item Details screen.
  10. In the document header, you see a description and the document number, as well as the document type. Here the document type 15 was used as manual standardizing entry with deferred taxes.

  11. Choose , until the Data Monitor screen appears.
  12. Select the combination ManStdEnty and CG1 and choose . Also block the task for cons group CG4.
  13. As a consolidation unit can be assigned to different hierarchies and therefore to different consolidation groups, the tasks must also be executed for the other consolidation groups/hierarchies in order to obtain the overall status "complete" in the data monitor.

    In this example, cons unit C3000 is contained in both CG3 and CG5, and therefore also on CG4.

  14. To return to the overview tree, choose .
  15. Choose Consolidation ® Information system ® Tools ® Journal entries, to view this posting using an alternative method.
  16. Enter the following data:
  17. Field

    Data

    Consolidation group

    CG3

    Consolidation unit

    C3000

    No reversal documents

    X

  18. Choose .
  19. Make sure that no other restrictions were made.

    The first thing you see is Document number 1000000002, which you can display down to line item level using Edit ® Expand. Now you see the six line items.

  20. Choose , to return to the Journal Entry Report screen.
  21. Enter the following data:
  22. Field

    Data

    Consolidation group

    CG3

    Consolidation unit

    C3000

    Journal entry layout

    CS04-02

    No reversal documents

    X

  23. Choose .
  24. Maximize the screen size.
  25. In the next to last entry you see that the first document with document number 1000000000 was reversed by document 1000000001. For the second document, you see that it is the reversal document for 1000000000. If you want to display the two documents again with journal entry layout CS04-01, you will see that the tax allocation is missing. This is because the responsible clerk has not yet entered the tax rate for the consolidation units, which means no allocation was possible. As a result a reversal was required.

  26. Choose until the overview tree appears.
  27. Choose Consolidation ® Data collection ® Manual Posting ® Display.
  28. Enter a valid document number (1000000000, 1000000001 or 1000000002) in the Document number field and choose .
  29. Choose until the overview tree appears.
