Step 4: Manage Reports in a Consolidation
In this step, Report Structures are configured and managed within the Consolidation Dossier.
Step 1: Add Import Sets
Add the Import Sets for the fiscal years available in the underlying entities to the Consolidation Dossier.
Go to:
Main Menu → Data → Manage and Organize → Import Sets
-
Add the relevant fiscal years (for example, 2025 and 2026).
-
Make sure these years match the fiscal years imported into the underlying dossiers.
Step 2: Import and Apply Report Structures
-
Import Factview's standard Report Structure.
-
Import any custom Report Structures.
-
Apply these structures to all underlying entities.
Centralized Report Management
For the most efficient use of Factview, it is recommended to manage reports centrally within the Consolidation Dossier.
This means:
-
New Report Structures are created in the consolidation.
-
General Ledger Accounts are mapped directly within the consolidation.
-
Changes are managed from one central location.
Once the Report Structure is complete:
-
Export the structure, including its mapping, to the underlying entities.
-
The reports become immediately available for all companies within the consolidation.
