PO2 - BW - Consolidation views



What is the consolidation view ?

In some BW reports, it is possible to display the data with the legal view or the consolidation view. 

  • Until D1, there is a single consolidation view : 1=SOLVAY
  • From D1, there will be 2 new consolidation views : 2 = ECO & 3 = SCO

List of reports with consolidation view: 


Before D1

The user can choose the accounting view (0) or the consolidated view (1) in the prompt.

  • accounting view (0): 100 % of all companies in Solvay are displayed even if there are not or partially consolidated 


  • consolidated view (1): Only consolidated or partially consolidated companies are displayed with the integration rate of the company and of the trading partner. 


After D1

The user can choose 2 new consolidation views:

  • the ECO consolidated view (2) 

  • the SCO consolidated view (3)



How to fill the prompt with the new consolidation views ?

When you open a BW report, you need to fill the prompt

Before D1

When it is applicable, you must enter the consolidation view:

  • 0 - Accounting view
  • 1 - Solvay

After D1

There are 2 new consolidation views 2=ECO & 3=SCO



Specific cases - Working Capital & Credit Management

Before D1, the report was by default filtered with the conso view = 1 - Solvay. The end-user can not change the conso view.

After D1, the end user has to select the conso view however if he selects the conso view = 0 (accounting view), there will be no data in the report. The option conso view = 0 is available but doesn't give any result and if the user needs to have a non consolidated report, he needs to use a specific query. 



How to combine the authorization scope with the consolidation view ? 

The consolidation view must obviously be consistent with the authorization scope, otherwise it will lead to an error message. 


User E has access to the authorization scope ECO. He can select the conso view: 

  • 0 - Accounting view
  • 1 - Solvay (until spin-off)
  • 2 - ECO (from D1)

But there will be no data if he selects the conso view 3 - SCO

User S has access to the authorization scope SCO. He can select the conso view: 

  • 0 - Accounting view
  • 1 - Solvay (until spin-off)
  • 3 - SCO (from D1)

But there will be no data if he selects the conso view 2 - ECO

 User G has access to the scope ECO and SCO. He can select all conso views: 

  • 0 - Accounting view
  • 1 - Solvay (until spin-off)
  • 2 - ECO (from D1)
  • 3 - SCO (from D1)


What is the difference between the Conso view Solvay and the Conso view ECO or SCO ?

The difference between the conso view Solvay (1) and the conso view ECO (2) or SCO (3) is the elimination of the intercos


Illustration 

There are 3 companies 1, 2 and A belonging to Solvay until the spin-off with a consolidation rate = 100%.

After D1:

  • the company 1 and 2 belong to ECO
  • the company A belongs to SCO

The Company 1 (ECO) sells product to 3 companies: 

  • Company 2 (ECO)
  • Company A (SCO)
  • an external company (not consolidated)




Conso view 1 - Solvay

User E is ECO, when he selects the conso view 1 - Solvay:

=> All sales to Solvay companies are eliminated (sales to company 2 & A)

Total external sales for company 1 when conso view = SOLVAY = 100 $ (sales to external company)



Conso view 2 - ECO

User E is ECO, when he selects the conso view 2 - ECO

=> Only sales to ECO companies are eliminated (sales to company 2). Sales to company A are external sales.

Total external sales for company 1 when conso view = ECO = 200 $ (sales to external company + sales to company A)
