Consolidated Values on Periods with the Old Consolidation Model

You can view consolidated values on periods run with the old consolidation model after you have migrated to the new consolidation model.

If you use this function, data stored according to the old model for the specified periods will still be displayed correctly in Trial Balance, Journals Across and the Ledger Report after you have migrated to the new model. This allows you to keep existing data on a number of periods, even if you have migrated the last period previous year. The server parameter OLKOREP now includes two intervals.

Example: OLKOREP_AC = 0312-0511, 0601-0608

This means that the period 0512 was run with the new consolidation model, but not the other periods before and after 0512. For information about OLKOREP, see Define General Configuration - the Server Preferences Tab
