Intercompany account assignment
The separation of the group-internal and group-external processes on a
value basis is achieved by the intercompany account assignment
(intercompany clearing accounts). These are financial accounts which are
specifically allocated to one customer or one vendor. If it concerns an
group-internal process, abas ERP will provide the appropriately defined
account assignment. Nothing changes for group-external processes. Due
to these differing account assignments the group-internal processes are
posted to other financial accounts than the group-external processes.
The differentiated account
assignment can be found
in the whole financial
accounting and the
payment transactions. This
also means that the cash
discounts are posted to
different accounts.
3.14.4. Exchange of financial data
The financial accounting data from the single client must be transferred to
the consolidation client. A basis for the consolidation would be, for
example, the totals and balance lists or the balance sheet and also the
profit and loss account. In abas ERP the monthly debit amounts and the
credit amounts of each account are transferred to the consolidation
client.
The export and import of the data is controlled by the master files object
"Group data exchange". In an export group data exchange the range of
data to be exported can be specified, e.g. the time-period and which type
of entry accounts (financial accounts, AR, AP), broken down by advance
VAT return items. By clicking a button the export data will be selected and
a data exchange file will be written. This file can be transferred to the
consolidation client using any transfer method, e.g. email. In the
consolidation client a group data exchange of type "Import" will be
generated from the data transfer file. The data can be checked in the
generated import object. In order to transfer the monthly debit and credit
amounts, the import data can be posted by clicking a button.
