Setup
General Ledger Setup
On the "General ledger setup" page, it is necessary to set the dimension used for the calculation, for the automatic generation of the elision entries:
Chart of Accounts of the consolidating company:
it is necessary to activate the option “Consolidated Elision Calculation” on all the accounts that will have to be processed for generating the elision records.
This setup avoids generating elisions for accounts that do not concern the consolidated financial statements: for example, on an accounting entry for the collection of a loan from a subsidiary company, the Intercompany dimension will be valued both on the loan account and on that of the bank. The elision entry however, it must only be generated for the loan account.
Procedure
Generate elision entries
The "Create Elision Jour. Entries" function is present in the Intercompany General Journal:
Usually a special batch is handled with fixed compensation. At the end of the elision procedure, the counterpart account must have a balance equal to 0 (zero).
The procedure must be carried out after importing sheet balances of the various companies to be consolidated, appropriately marked through the Intercompany dimension.
Import balances of companies outside Business Central
In the Business Unit card there is the possibility to import, with the same standard logic, the balances relating to companies external to BC, thanks to the compilation of the specific Excel layout:
Field | Description |
