Group Chart Of Accounts and Group Account Number

1529 Views

Hi SAP Gurus,

For the sake of consolidated reporting, we are planning to create group chart of accounts and assign a Group account number to the GL account master. The structure is going to be like this:

Operating Expenses (Group Account : 461000).

-


Air Conditioning Exp (GL account 461000001)

-


Elevators (GL account 461000002)

-


Coffee and snacks (GL account 461000003)

This is being done to achieve a detail level reporting at the company code level and a consolidated reporting at a group level where the reporting would be based on group account or FSIs. We would define a financial statement version based on FSIs.

My question is : do we need to activate the consolidation (EC-CS) module to push the data to the FSIs or the data would flow automatically to the group account if we assign this to the GL master. If we go to fetch the data from the ECMCT table, do we need to have a consolidation unit?

Any inputs are highly appreciated.

thanks
