Entering Ownership Information

To enter ownership information, you either load the shares information, or enter the shares information in a data grid with the appropriate POV. You load or enter values for system accounts such as Percent Ownership (POWN), Percent Consolidation (PCON), and Percent Control (PCTRL). You can also select the consolidation method for the entity and whether the consolidation status of a child into its parent is active or inactive.

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

The Manage Ownership grid 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.

Table 7-1 shows the system account columns that you can display in the grid and the possible values that you can enter for each. These ownership and consolidation system accounts are automatically created when you create an application. For details, see the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Administrator's Guide.
