Business Unit Structure

Select the Business Unit Structure tab.

Consolidate Business Units

Select this option to consolidate business units. The system consolidates business units by using the business unit structure definition to create business unit parent/child relationships. If you clear this option instead, the system does not consolidate business units, but instead transmits account balances for each individual business unit.

Structure Name

Enter the name of a saved consolidation.

Sequence Level

Enter a number that indicates the level of the organizational structure at which the system consolidates account balances. For example, 01 indicates that the system consolidates at the highest level of the organizational structure, and 03 indicates that the system consolidates at the third highest level of the organizational structure.

This field is used with the Sequence Value field. If you use the Search button to complete the Structure Name field, the system completes the Sequence Level field.

Sequence Value

Enter the value of the category code that represents the level of the consolidation. For example, to consolidate at the region level and to define the parent business unit in the Central region, enter the value of the category code for the Central region. To define parent business units in all category codes at the level of the consolidation, enter *.

The system does not define any business unit as a parent business unit if it has a blank category code at the level of the consolidation.

This field is used with the Sequence Level field.
