Entering Ownership Information

You use the Ownership Management feature to enter ownership information for entities such as Percent Ownership, Percent Consolidation, and Percent Control. You can also select the consolidation method for the entity and select whether the consolidation status of a child into its parent is active or inactive.

To enter ownership information, you must be assigned the security role of Manage Ownership.

The rows display the list of child entities based on the entity you selected to use as the parent entity in the point of view. You can select multiple rows and apply a value in one row to multiple rows.

You can save changes to the data, or you can reset the data to the values in the database without saving any changes. When you select to save data, all values in the grid are saved in the database.

Note:

For the PCON, POWN, PCTRL, and DOWN system accounts, no data is displayed as a value of 100. For Consol 1, 2, 3, no data is displayed as 0.

Table 12 shows the system accounts that appear in the columns and the possible values that you can enter for each. These columns are preset and cannot be changed. See the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Administrator’s Guide.
