Hi Gokul,

as it is said before: You are not allowed to load data with movement type that are used for "stock", on which data is carried forward. But of course if you start the consolidation initial, you need to upload data also for this movement type. So in the first period / year you are allowed to upload data here.

Hello Gokul,

you can use this attributes to allowed data entry for blocked movement types (e.g. BCF movement type) in the period of the first data entry for your company.

In other periods the data entry for blocked movement types is not allowed.

So you can enter initial values for the BCF movement types without openning it for all companies.

best regards

Thomas
