Strategic Finance consolidates subperiods if the consolidated parent and child entities have matching subperiods.
If child entities contain subperiods but the consolidated parent does not, the consolidation does not include subperiods. Subperiod data aggregates to the full period in the consolidated parent.
If the consolidated parent has subperiods and the child entities do not have matching subperiods, Consolidator logs an error and stops the consolidation.
The same condition exists for subperiods with uneven lengths of time. In this example, the consolidated parent contains subperiods which match the length of time of the subperiods in business unit #1. The subperiods in child entity #2 do not match,so Consolidator would log an error and stops the consolidation.
