Adding a Source Company ID for Importing

Use the G/L Consol Import Unit Maintenance screen to create and manage unit IDs unique to each of a destination company's source companies, and to specify and check the functional currency of the source company.

Note: A destination company cannot import any G/L data from a source company until a source unit ID has been added on the G/L Consol Import Unit Maintenance screen that uniquely identifies the source company.

To add a source company ID:

  1. Open General Ledger > G/L Consolidations > G/L Consol. Setup > Import Unit Maintenance.
  2. In the Source Unit ID field, enter a new ID to identify the source company.
  3. In the Description field, enter a description for the company.
  4. Select the source company's functional currency.
  5. Click Add.

After creating a source company ID, you can perform an import.

Note: The source unit ID must match the ID specified on the G/L Consol Export Setup screen, and the functional currency must be the same as that specified in the export from the source company.
