Setting Up Intercompany Transactions

An intercompany transaction is a transaction between two entities in an organization. Oracle Hyperion Financial Management enables you to track and reconcile intercompany transaction details across accounts and custom dimensions. The Intercompany Transactions module provides an efficient way to identify, report, and reconcile intercompany account differences.

You use the Manage Intercompany Transactions page to process intercompany transactions. For information on processing transactions, see the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management User's Guide .

Before you can enter intercompany transactions, you must complete these setup procedures:

• Open periods for the intercompany transactions. See Opening Intercompany Periods.

• Define and load intercompany transaction rules into the application. The HS.SupportsTran function specifies the accounts, scenarios, and custom dimensions in the application that support intercompany transactions. See Creating Rules Files and Loading Rules.

• Determine matching tolerances. See Setting Matching Tolerances.

• Define reason codes to indicate why a transaction has a MisMatched status. See Adding Reason Codes.

• Enter currency conversion rates. See Defining Currencies.
