How to handle Group Structure changes while changing Holding company

99 Views

Hi Team,

User is currently performing legal consolidation in SAP Group Reporting 2021 FPS01 on top of one consolidation group. In a few months time, they are introducing a new holding company and want to consolidate using the new holding company while making the existing holding company as the subsidiary.

What Options do we have for consolidation with the new holding company? I am thinking of the below. Kindly add/correct if you think so..

1. Create a new consolidation group with new holding company and do not load any historical data in the group. Start consolidating on top of the movements from the period the new holding company is live. This way, user will not get any historical balances while reporting through an external tool from the new consolidation group.

2. Create new consolidation group with the new holding company. Load all the historical data with the investments in the name of new holding company which were earlier in the name of existing holding company. Perform consolidation. This way user will have all data when they report via the new group.

What are the the other options.. Can the above options be made better?

Regards,
