Consolidation Mapping for Balancing Segment Values [message #458728] Tue, 01 June 2010 09:41

Following is the chart of account structure for subsidiary company:

Balancing Unit (Balancing Segment) [01,02]
Account (Natural Account Segment)
Cost Center (Cost Center Segment)

Following is the chart of account structure for parent company:

Company (Balancing Segment) [01]
Account (Natural Account Segment)
Department (Cost Center Segment)
Project (Cost Center Segment)

The subsidiary company has two values in its balancing segment 01 and 02 while the parent company

has only one value 01.

Question is.

How should the balancing segment values of subsidiary companies be mapped to the parent in

Consolidation Mapping?
Should both 01 and 02 be mapped to the parent company 01?
Or should subsidiary companies be kept separate in the parent ledger? We can do this by creating

subsidiary representations in the parent ledger as 11 and 12. Then mapping would be 01-11, 02->12.

What is the right way?
Any benefits of doing it one way or the other?

Thanks
