Schedule Jobs

You can schedule jobs to be run at a specific time. Default option Execute immediately is also run via the Batch Queue.

For more information, see The Batch Queue.

Procedure

  1. On the Group menu, click Consolidate By Steps/Consolidation. The Consolidation window opens. This is the same window, but here with some options dimmed out, that you use when you select Group/Consolidate with Status.
  2. Enter the actuality, period range, actuality for the opening balance period, consolidation type, and group for which you want to consolidate data.
  3. Click Run to run the consolidation. All data is consolidated for the selected group.

Results

Note: When consolidation takes place by steps there is no automatic reconciliation or control, which means that consolidation status is not updated either. It is important to reconcile each company according to the rules for the reconciliation. Also, only one top group is supported for each consolidation type.
