Actions

Element Description
Steps Only on the Overview tab. Allows you to move between tabs. See Steps.
Preliminary data processing Only on the Overview tab. Allows you to run preliminary data processing (carry forward) on a selected scenario/period and potentially limit it by consolidator node, entity, step and category.
ETL Allows you to run one of the ETL jobs that have been set up for the process.
Edit windows Allows you to edit original gross amounts, intercompany entries, entity journals and consolidation journals from the web. See Edit windows.
Other Edit windows Allows you to enter reconciliation accounts and notes via the web interface. See Other Edit windows.
Intercompany Cockpit Allows you to run intercompany matching from a dedicated cockpit.
Financial investments congruence Allows you to run diagnostics and access the results log. See Financial investments congruence.
Consolidation Data Processing Allows you to run consolidation data processing on the selected nodes and node entities. Note: selecting the highest-level consolidation node is not equivalent to processing all entities. For example, for data processing by counterparty, only entities directly belonging to the node and entities in pairs of entities belonging to different consolidation nodes will be generated. To process all entities, you must select all consolidation nodes. The quickest method is to position the cursor on the highest-level consolidation node, right click and choose the “Select cascade” option. See Consolidation Data Processing.
Calculation logics Allows you to do the following: - Run all calculation logics related to the selected process. - Run the logics, filtering them based on scenarios and periods present in the process. See Processes cockpit - Contributor – Calculation logics .
Submit Runs the submission activities for which it is enabled on the selected nodes. - On the Overview tab, this opens a window to select the original scenarios/periods and step up until which you want to submit. - In a step tab, this automatically sets the value of the necessary parameters and runs the submission directly.
Reject Allows the higher node manager to reject the selected nodes. - On the Overview tab, this opens a window in which you can select the original scenarios/periods and the step up until which you want to reject and potentially insert a note and the reasons for rejection. - In a step tab, this automatically sets the value of the necessary parameters and runs the rejection directly.
Override Amounts Only on the Overview tab. Integrates the final data generated by the system. This is typically needed when, as the final outcome, the amount information to be extracted from the reporting system needs to be identical to data already made public at a previous time (if the consolidation tool is changed, for example). For amounts, only carry forwards can be overridden on the original scenario. In fact, the other rows can be added from the management window for the original rows without needing to override them. See Data entry > Override Amounts and Journals.
Override journals Only on the Overview tab. Integrates the final data generated by the system. This is to extract journal information identical to data officially made public at a previous time (if the consolidation tool is changed, for example). See Data entry > Override Amounts and Journals.
Process reports Allows you to generate reports on data, entities and process configuration. See Process reports.
Utility Allows you to copy amounts, journals and consolidation data and lock and unlock data entry. See Utility.

Financial investments congruence

Element Description
Diagnose Runs diagnostics for the selected entities. If run from the Summary tab, a window showing the customisable filters will open. If run from a step tab, this automatically sets the value of the necessary parameters for the step in question and runs the diagnostics directly. See Data processing > Diagnostics.
Diagnose and update log Summary tab. Runs diagnostics for the selected entity and step and updates the diagnostic results log. See Data processing > Diagnostics.
Diagnostic results log Opens the diagnostic results log for the selected entities. In the Summary tab, this opens a window to choose the step. In a step tab, it displays the log for the selected step only. See Data processing > Diagnostic > Diagnostic results log

Consolidation Data Processing

Consolidation data processing is only performed on entities belonging to the selected nodes. Selecting the highest-level consolidation node does not mean that all entities will be processed. For example, for data processing by counterparty, only entities directly belonging to the node and entities in pairs of entities belonging to different consolidation nodes will be generated.

In other words, if you want to process all entities, you must select all consolidation nodes. The quickest method is to position the cursor on the highest-level consolidation node, right click and choose the “Select cascade” option.

Element Description
Standard Automatically run data processing enabled for the process, on both the original scenario and the consolidation scenario.
Custom Allows you to run data processing enabled for the process, making it possible to select the original and consolidation scenarios to process and decide the type of data processing to run (entity, group, area).

Process reports

Element Description
Interactive Entries View It allows the Consolidator user to analyse the consolidated data, detail them for the different dimensions, with the possibility of going back to the original data and the detail of the adjustments. See Interactive Entries View (IEV).
Journals book Allows you to extract a report with all the journals entered on the entities. See Journals book window (for the contributor).
Ad-hoc analysis Runs the data analysis via drill down onto the CCH Tagetik dimensions. See Drill down parameters page (ad-hoc analysis).
FX rate difference reserves analysis Analyses variations and the effects of the FX rate difference reserve in relation to the opening financial year (historic FX rate, annual net result, intercompany entries, other accounts not at the final FX rate and FX rate difference). See FX rate difference reserves analysis window.
Financial investments - Net equity analysis Summarises the data for financial investments, net equity, consolidation eliminations for financial investments/net equity, minority shareholdings and net equity reclassification (NER) of entities belonging to the selected consolidation scenario/period.
Net Result and Reserves Group Evolution analysis Allows you to analyse changes to net equity and annual net result for each entity belonging to a given consolidation area. See Net Result and Reserves Group Evolution analysis window.
Pick-up check report Only visible if Equity pick-up data processing on entities is active in the process. Allows you to control the effect generated by Equity pick-up data processing on entities. For every direct investment relationship, the report compares the value of the owner entity’s financial investment with the net equity of the owned entity, inclusive of pick-up journals, and calculates the difference.
Pick-up query Only visible if Equity pick-up data processing on entities is active in the process. Allows you to analyse in detail the pick-up journals generated by the Equity pick-up data processing on entities. The report is only available if Generate detailed information for the pick up query has been selected in the pick-up rules for the Equity pick-up data processing. For more details on the data processing pick-up rules, see ..
Submission status Only on the Overview tab. Allows you to extract a report showing submission statuses of the selected entities and of the nodes to which they belong, in the various steps, based on the root. See Submission status window (for the consolidator).
Submission Status grouped by Entity Node Only on the Overview tab. This allows you to extract a report showing, for each contributor node, the number of entities submitted and not submitted in the various steps, regardless of user rights. Access to the report must be gained using the functions for the role (0001937).
Submission Status grouped by Consolidation Method Only on the Overview tab. This allows you to extract a report showing, for each consolidation method, the number of entities submitted and not submitted in the various steps, regardless of user rights. Access to the report requires the function (0001937) to be included in the user’s role.
Change consolidation scope report Allows you to extract a report on variations in the consolidation area. The report shows the consolidation rules and entities for the two selected scenarios. The run window asks you to select a consolidation scenario/period and decide whether you want to compare it with the carry forward scenario or a specific scenario/period. The report can be displayed in full view mode or show the differences only. See Change consolidation scope report window.
Consolidation area perimeter This shows the deployed consolidation area tables, with all information on the entities included in it (divided into line-by-line and at equity) for consolidators that are not administrators and cannot view them from the process configuration. See Consolidation area scope page.
Entity/Classifier Relationships Only visible if financial investment reclassification data processing is enabled in the process. Shows the Entity/Reclassification variable relationships for consolidation scenarios belonging to the Process. See Entity/Classifier Relationship page.

Utility

Element Description
Copy amounts and journals Copies amounts, notes, entity journals and consolidation journals from one scenario to another chosen from among the active original scenarios. Note: the source scenario must be visible to the user, while the target scenario must be editable by the user. See Copy amounts and journals window.
Copy Consolidation Copies data from one scenario/period to another. Copies both the data tables and the master tables linked to them (scenarios, mergers, consolidation areas). Once complete, the consolidation area is deployed. See Copy Consolidation window.
Copy consolidation on original Copies data from one consolidation scenario to the specified original scenario/period. Consolidable amount type data is copied onto the gross amounts and IC amounts of the specified original scenario/period/entity and category. See Copy consolidated on original window.
