Basic Consolidation with SAP BPC

SAP PRESS

Financial consolidation is the aggregation of the financial statements of a group of companies into one as a consolidated financial statement.

Those who have not spent time working in corporate accounting or implemented consolidation systems such as SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (SAP BPC) may not have a good idea of what the month-end process entails.

This blog post will show you the fundamentals of consolidation with SAP BPC. You’ll learn the four major steps in the process: prepare, collect, consolidate, and report. Then you’ll discover business rules to follow. The nice thing about the information outlined in this piece is that no matter which version of SAP BPC you’re working with, you’ll be able to follow along.

Let’s get started, shall we?

Why Companies Consolidate Financial Data

The primary reason corporations need to consolidate their financials at month end is that they are made up of multiple legal subsidiaries in one or more countries. As an example, the figure below outlines an ownership investment structure. In this example, the corporate holding company is C9000, and it’s based in the United States.

SAP Data Hub

This corporation operates in a few different countries in the Americas, Europe, and Asia Pacific, and therefore it uses a few different local currencies and may also use multiple accounting standards such as US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

In addition, subsidiaries can have a variety of ownership relationships, such as total ownership, like Japan in the figure above (C9000 owns 100% of C5000), or the UK subsidiary, which has 80% of its shares owned by Germany. In the Europe group, for example, the financial statements at the group level must reflect the fact that Germany has an ownership interest in UK’s equity.

Also, there are usually transactions between the subsidiaries, so each company can have intercompany sales, cost of goods sold (COGS), intercompany accounts payable (IC AP) and receivables (IC AR), and the like on its books.

Using the prior example as a backdrop, the goal of the consolidation process is to generate a set of group financial statements in the group currency with values that reflect the group accounting standards. Because this corporation is based in the United States, the group currency will be USD, and US GAAP will be the set of standards to go by.

The consolidated financial statements also need to only reflect third-party transactions, not intercompany, so all intercompany sales, COGS, IC AP, IC AR, and so on need to be eliminated.

Next, let’s go over a typical month-end close from a functional perspective.

Performing Consolidation with SAP BPC

From a broad perspective, there are four key steps when preparing for and executing consolidation.

Consolidation with SAP BPC

The prepare step includes the setup of the dimensions, loading the master data, creating the business rules, and configuring the security to support the process of consolidation.

The collect step involves collecting data via manual entry, file uploads, SAP ERP integration, and journal entries (JEs). Then the data is validated, and currency translation is performed.

3 Consolidate

The consolidate step involves running the eliminations, reclassification, and data validation.

The report step involves analyzing the data via the Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) add-in for Excel, drilling through to SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) queries and SAP ERP, and using SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards.

Now, let’s walk through a more detailed set of month-end activities. A sample list of steps can be viewed from the business process flow (BPF) in the figure below. The following list includes the steps in a typical consolidation BPF:

Balance Carry Forward

The classic first step is to carry forward the prior year balance sheet closing balances into the current year opening balances.

Import Actuals

Then the current month’s financial data from the local subsidiaries is imported into planning and consolidation.

Data Validation

A data validation to perform integrity checks such as assets = liabilities and owner’s equity can be run at this point, as well as later in the process.

Reclassifications

Automated adjustments can be run at this point in the process, as well as later.

Manual adjusting entries to meet the group standards can be entered at this point in the process, as well as later.

Ownership Data

The ownership methods and percentages are entered into the ownership model.

Currency Translation

Local currency is translated into other reporting currencies if necessary.

IC Matching

IC AP/AR differences must be identified and booked.

IC Eliminations—US Method

IC revenue and COGS, for example, are eliminated.

Consolidation Monitor

The Consolidation Monitor is used to run group currency translation and ownership eliminations, for example.

Publish the Group Financials

The final set of financial statements is published.

The steps in your month-end closing process may vary from this example. For instance, you may not use the IC Eliminations—US Method . Also, the sequence of the steps may vary; for example, you might update the ownership data in the very first step.

SAP Consolidation Process

At this point, you should have a better understanding of the reasons for consolidation and what the process entails. Because the business rules are the center of attention when it comes to consolidating financial statements, let’s discuss those next.

Introducing Business Rules for SAP BPC

First, let’s define business rules and discuss how to turn them on. At the 50,000-foot level, business rules are defined as the planning and consolidation user interfaces to enter metadata into database tables. The metadata includes, for example, source dimension members, target dimension members, filtering criteria, and settings that are used to control the calculations. The system uses ABAP code to read the business rules to perform calculations and ultimately write data records into the InfoCube.

Business rules are defined at the environment level, grouped under the Global Definitions and at the model level. There are two environment-level business rules:

These are different types of consolidation methods such as the 86-Purchase Method, 70-Proportional Method, 90-Holding Method, and 30-Equity Method.

2 Method-based multipliers

This table contains rules that are used to select entity source values and apply percentages to those values to ultimately book new data records.

On the Administration tab, the Methods and Method-based Multipliers are grouped under Global Definitions , as shown below.

Method-Based Multipliers SAP BPC

There are six business rule types for consolidation-type models, as listed here and shown in the figure below:

Adding and Removing Rule Types in SAP BPC

1 Currency Translation

This rule is used to translate local currency values into reporting and group currency.

2 Eliminations and Adjustments

This rule is used to eliminate ownership, as well as other intercompany activities.

3 US Eliminations

This is used to perform simpler IC activities, such as revenue and COGS.

4 Intercompany Bookings

This rule is used to book IC differences, as mentioned previously in the IC matching step.

5 Account-based Calculations

This is used to perform reclassifications.

6 Carry-Forward

This is used to carry forward prior period closing balances.

To use a business rule for a model, you must activate it by going to the web client and choosing Planning and Consolidation Administration > Rules > Business Rules > Select Add/Remove Rule Types .

When it comes time to consolidate financials for month-end close, using a solution such as SAP BPC to perform the consolidation can save you time and make your statements easy to read. This ensures a holistic picture of your financial status and properly reported information. This blog post introduced you to basic consolidation with SAP BPC, including the four steps, and provided you with business rules to follow when combining statements.

Let’s see each attribute of SAP BPC in detail,

It helps management team to formulate its vision, mission, core values, and objectives. The team develops strategic plans to uphold its competitive advantage in the marketplace. It helps them to answer the following questions.

  • What does corporate want to be?

SAP BPC Architecture

SAP BPC Architecture. It uses various business rules and script logics for doing the planning. The key components in BPC architecture are shown in the image below.

SAP BPC Architecture

BPC Administration

BPC Administration allows administrators to perform maintenance and setup tasks for BPC client applications.

How to start BPC administration

BPC financial administration has two interfaces; a client application and a web interface. The administration action pane lists the available tasks for both interfaces

To start BPC administration

  • Open a browser and type http://<server name>/osoft, where <server name> is the name of your BPC server.
  • From the Windows Start menu, select SAP > BPC
  • From your Windows Desktop, click the BPC icon
  • From the Launch page, select BPC Administration
  • From the Administration action pane, select the desired task

BPC Administration in SAP

The console client is a Microsoft explorer-like window. Where we manage items such as application sets, applications, business rules, dimensions and business process flows. The browser client allows to control application set and application properties, as well as maintain BPC web parameters.

Creating a new dimension

Dimensions represent the entities of a business (e.g., accounts, company codes, and categories). They represent the master, text, and hierarchy data for each of the business entities.

It is possible to create new dimensions in a BPC application set. There is no restriction to create a number of dimensions in SAP BPC. These dimensions then become shared dimensions that are available for use in any application within the appset.

Some dimensions are required dimensions. It must exist in all the applications within an application set. While the dimension type determines the default properties to be included in the dimension. It is possible to add additional properties as needed.

Dimension types

Required in each application

  • A = Account type dimension
  • C = Category type dimension
  • E = Entity type dimension
  • T = Time type dimension

Required in each application set

  • R = Currency type dimension

Needed to validate currencies that are input in Entity type dimension. This may not be part of any applications within the application set

Required for Intercompany Eliminations

  • I = Intercompany

It is also possible to create additional dimensions as a requirement

Un = User defined dimension type. For each user-defined dimension, the number ‘n’ will be incremented. For e.g; U1, U2, U3 and so on

Creating Dimensions

Select Dimension Library on the left side. The action pane will display the related dimension tasks.

Creating Dimensions

To create a new dimension, click on “Add a new dimension”.

Creating Dimensions

Similarly, it is possible to copy, modify, process and delete dimensions. While adding dimensions, you need to enter reference type.

Next in this SAP BPC training, we will learn about BPC reporting.

BPC Reporting

BPC for Office combines the power of BPC with the rich functionality of Microsoft Excel , Word, and Powerpoint. With BPC for Office, we have all of the Microsoft functionality we are used to. On top of it documents, worksheets, and slideshows can be linked directly to the BPC database that has Company’s reporting data.

BPC for Office allows to collect data, build reports, perform real-time analysis and publish reports in a variety of formats. You can save your reports so that you can use them disconnected from the database. You can take reports completely offline and distribute them based on user access rights

A sample layout looks as follows

BPC Reporting

BPC Security

BPC security is managed in Administration Console. There are four key components in BPC security?

  • Users : It is used to add users to the environment and manage their access rights
  • Teams : You can define a group of users with same access rights
