Page purpose

This page allows you to identify the control groups that have been adjusted in the journal and, through a drill-down, view and edit the adjusted accounts. When this page is opened, CCH Tagetik runs a dedicated diagnostic on the control groups to which the adjusted accounts in the journal belong. It therefore shows not only the unbalanced control groups, but also the balanced ones. This allows you to check the composition of the groups themselves and potentially make adjustments.

Description
Drill down: shows the accounts that belong the selected control group (Drill down on control groups page).

Page fields

Action Description
Balancing Indicates whether or not the error row detected by the diagnostic is balanced. If it is not, the row will be reported ().
In progress Indicates whether the error row detected by the diagnostic includes any rows marked “draft” (). Information only available if management of “Draft journals” is active (Categories for draft journals page).
Entity For entity journals, it shows the entity for which the data was entered. For consolidation journals, it shows the node of entities. However, for consolidation journals, if the Check consolidation journals by Entity option has been activated on the control group, the balancing check will be performed by journal and entity. This field therefore shows the entity.
Source control group Code and description of the control group
Accounts Only for control groups with 'Check by element' option. Account code and description.
Control group type Control group type: - Variation - Balancing - Details - Coherence
Data type Only for entity journals. Type of data that was diagnosed: - Gross - Net - IC
Phase Step in which the control group is diagnosed
Custom dimension Based on how the control group has been defined, it can show the following information: - an element of the custom dimension, for control groups with check custom dimension “by lowest level element” - a node of the custom dimension, for control groups with check custom dimension “by hierarchy nodes” If the control group provides for a “total” custom dimension check, the field is empty.
CTP Entity Only for entity journals, it contains the counterparty entity if the data type to be diagnosed is Intercompany.
CTP Custom dimension 2 Only for entity journals and if the process’s relationship type is “entity - custom dimension 2” or “entity - synthetic custom dimension 2”, it contains the counterparty custom dimension 2 if the data type to be diagnosed is Intercompany.
Unit Journal currency, in which the amounts are expressed.
Parent accounts/Set1 amount Sum of the amounts entered in the journal on the parent accounts of the control group. For control groups whose type is Balancing, this is the sum of the amounts entered on the accounts belonging to Set 1.
Parent accounts/Set2 amount Sum of the amounts entered in the journal on the child accounts of the control group. For control groups whose type is Balancing, this is the sum of the amounts entered on the accounts belonging to Set 2.
Difference Difference between Child accounts/Set2 amount and Parent accounts/Set1 amount
Operator For the Variation, Detail and Balancing types, this can be one of the following: =, <, >, >=, <= or <>. Coherence may be as follows: - Bi-directional coherence - Bi-directional coherence by element - Coherence - Coherence by element
Check by element Specifies whether the control group has the 'Check by element' option
Severity Severity of the error for submission purposes
