Consolidation Dimension

The consolidation dimension member hierarchy shows how entity data rolls up from the local currency to the final numbers that contribute to its parent entity member. This dimension is not editable through the Dimension Library but is viewable using the Point of View pane.

The consolidation dimension shows the translation, share, elimination, adjustment (Journal), consolidation detail, and the currencies assigned to an application. Additional currencies can be added through Application Properties.

The main groups of members in the hierarchy include: 

  • Analysis: Includes an aggregated member for use with processes that do not require a strict statutory consolidation process.

  • Currencies: Includes one member for each of the currencies assigned to an application in Application Properties.

  • Top: Used for statutory consolidation, such as a financial close process, where data from child-level entity members are consolidated to parent-level entity members.
