Business Scenario:

Any corporation may have many legal subsidiaries and not all of them are wholly owned and managed by the holding companies. During a financial year, there may be fair number of acquisitions creates a tedious manual process to eliminate the ownership and book the minority interest for the closing. So there is a need a of automate process to take care of these ownership and to do minority calculations.

Overview:

This document illustrates every necessary step that is required to set up an Ownership and Consolidation on investment model in SAP BPC NW 10.0. A typical Ownership Manager process will have the following functionalities.

Hierarchies are used to keep track of the parent-child relationships.

The ownership model is used to store the ownership data. The method definitions are configured in the business tables. The method assignments are stored in the ownership model

In this guide, we will be looking at the following topics using the purchase consolidation method.

1. Ownership Calculations2. Elimination of Investment3. Elimination of Equity4. Minority Interest Booking

Implementation Steps:

Create and Populate Dimensions & Model:

1. Log into Web Admin Client using Primary Admin account (or any account with necessary task profile access that can create Model/Dimension and other building blocks)








01/01/2012

________________________________________________________________________

2. Click on “Planning and Consolidation Administration” option at the lower right corner








01/01/2012

________________________________________________________________________

3. Create all the following dimensions for the Ownership Model.

4. The account dimension members are as follows.








01/01/2012

________________________________________________________________________

5. Create the following ownership model. There should not be any intercompany member and “I_NONE” is selected. The values in the PARENT_GROUP property will be used to form the ownership hierarchy for the ownership manager.

01/01/2012

________________________________________________________________________

2. Enter the following data for the method table. The share range and the percent consolidation are used in the system to propose the method of calculation.

Note: 0.75<,<=1.00 is interpreted as Greater than .75 but less than or equal to 1.00.








01/01/2012

________________________________________________________________________

Business Rules for consolidation:

1. Now click on Method Based Multipliers and create the rule RULE10 with the following values.

a. This rule will be used to select entities with method code assignments of 86 and intercompany members with any (99) method code.

b. 100% (1) of the source value will be written to the ALL account specified in the eliminations and adjustments business rule.

c. The POWN % of the source value will be written to the Group account specified in the eliminations and adjustments business rule.

d. The 1-POWN % of the source value will be written to theMinority account specified in the eliminations and adjustments business rule.

Note: The ALL formula will reverse the sign of the source values while the Group and Minority formulas will not.

Consolidation Central

This module enables to generate and manage consolidated data. This is an all-in-one web interface for accountants. This gives an accurate view of the status of collected and consolidated data of an organization and is also a unified environment to perform consolidation tasks over the web. It is available under HOME tab has the following functions.

Consolidation Monitor

It’s a workspace for monitoring the consolidation progress for a specific consolidation scope for a given category, period, group or subgroup.

The Consolidation Monitor displays the Group/Entity hierarchy created in the Ownership Manager for Consolidation type models.

In the consolidation monitor we can see the status of the following.

Controls Status Work Status Currency Translation status Consolidation status

________________________________________________________________________

This is the place where user defined checks are performed to make sure the data entry or at subsequent points in the consolidation process to help ensure completeness and accuracy of the data. This is mainly used to control the consistency of the financial data, for example the balance sheet is balanced or not. Journals

Journals work spaces are to record and make adjustments to data in the database. This is typically done as part of the month-end or quarter-end process. For example, administrators load general ledger information into a model using the Data Manager. Before the close, line managers can review the data and make adjustments as necessary using a journal entry.

Journals Workspace Features:

• List journal IDs• Select journals based on your context or advanced search criteria• Select columns to display

Ownership Manager

The Ownership Manager in the Consolidation Central module enables you to create and manage ownership-based hierarchies used for performing statutory consolidation.

Ownership calculations are run from the ownership manager.








01/01/2012

________________________________________________________________________

An ownership based hierarchy combines Group and Entity members, where entities can be assigned to groups by Category and Time.Groups are nodes and entities are base level members. We define ownership based hierarchies in the system to set up and report on entity hierarchies that cannot be managed by a dimensional hierarchy.

In the above example, USA is the holding company, the percent of ownership is 100% and it owns 70% of Australia. Australia owns 60% of China.

Security
