- Complex company structures such as joint ventures, minority interest holdings,
partially or fully owned subsidiaries.
- Multiple heterogeneous systems including non general ledger data sources that
are required to support non-financial or industry specific metrics, disclosures, and

Bh nsubsidiaries
One of your - tra has a local chart of accounts and local currency. This subsidiary
uses a n
o
secondary ledger to record balances in the corporate chart of accounts and the
corporate currency.
Two subsidiaries have a local currency and use reporting currency functionality to record
balances in the corporate currency.
With the Reporting Only Consolidation method, perform the following tasks:
Group the ledgers in a ledger set. This assumes the ledgers share the same chart of
accounts and calendar.
Translate balances to the corporate currency for ledgers not in the corporate currency.
Include these ledgers in the ledger set. In the example, the Reporting Currency and
Secondary Ledgers are included in the ledger set.
Create eliminating entries.
Report using the ledger set and the corporate currency as parameters to view the
consolidated balances.
Note: If each entitys ledger has a different chart of accounts or calendar from the corporate
chart of accounts and calendar, a secondary ledger would need to be maintained that
conforms to the common chart of accounts and calendar so that this could be included in the
consolidation ledger set.
