SIMG_CFMENUCX01_MD26 - Copy FS Items from Accounts/Cost Elements

In this step, you can copy an transaction (operational) chart of accounts as a consolidation chart of accounts. The accounts in the source chart of accounts are then created in Consolidation as financial statement items with the same numbers. Afterwards, you need to manually edit the FS items as needed.

You do any of the following:

• Copy Financial Accounting accounts only from the chart of accounts.

• Copy Financial Accounting accounts and also secondary cost elements from Cost Accounting. In order to copy secondary cost elements from a chart of accounts, you need to specify the controlling area and key date for which the secondary elements are valid.

This means that you reserve a FS item for each secondary cost element. If you do not want such a one-to-one relationship, you can instead allocate a range of cost elements to a given FS item. See the step Allocate cost element ranges to FS items.

If the consolidation chart of accounts you are copying to already exists, you can choose whether you want to insert new items only into the consolidation chart of accounts or overwrite existing items.

Beforehand, you must create the consolidation chart of accounts that is to accommodate the FS items. See the step Define consolidation chart of accounts.

1. Copy accounts and cost elements to a consolidation chart of accounts.
2. Edit the hierarchies of the consolidation chart of accounts and the FS item master records. See the section User-defined Consolidation Chart of Accounts.
