   You can assign up to eight reporting sets of books to a single primary set of books. Most organizations will find no need to assign more than three.

Caution: If you need to assign more than three reporting sets of books to a primary set of books, be aware that each additional assignment will have an incremental impact on your system's performance and disk space consumption.

   You can assign the same reporting set of books to more than one primary set of books, provided they all have the same calendar and chart of accounts. You might want to do this if you need to consolidate transactions from multiple primary sets of books (with the same or different functional currencies) into the same reporting currency. For more information, see MRC Implementation Considerations.

   You cannot assign a primary set of books to another primary set of books, or to a reporting set of books.

   If you use combined basis accounting in Oracle Payables, you only need to assign the related reporting set of books to your Payables primary set of books in this step. The relationship for the Payables secondary set of books will be made in the next step when you define the Payables conversion options.

   To assign a reporting set of books to a primary set of books:

1. Navigate to the Assign Reporting Set of Books window.

2. Select your primary set of books from the list of values. The set of books' functional Currency, Chart of Accounts, and accounting Calendar will be displayed.

Note: Only those sets of books that have been defined as a primary set of books will be included in the list of values.

3. From the list of values in the Reporting Set of Books region, select the reporting set of books that you want to assign to the primary set of books. The reporting set of books' functional currency will be displayed.

Note: Only those sets of books that have been defined as a reporting set of books will be included in the list of values.

4. Choose the Conversion Options button to define conversion options for each combination of Oracle Application and operating unit for which you want to convert transactions to your reporting functional currency for this reporting set of books. See: Define Conversion Options for Each Application.

5. Save your work.

6. Repeat the previous three steps for each reporting set of books you want to assign to the primary set of books.
