Selecting Location Attributes

When selecting general integration options, you can add or edit the attributes or properties assigned to the location.

Location attributes include:

Location Attribute	Description
Functional Currency	Select the currency of the location. For Financial Consolidation and Close and Tax Reporting customers: To load data to actual currency rather than entity currency when the currency is fixed, set the currency in the Functional Currency field in the Location option. You can also add a Currency row in the import format and map it. Financial Consolidation and Close can also specify Parent Input, Contribution Input, and Translated Currency Input in this field to create and post journals to different currencies other than the entity currency.
Parent Group	Select the parent assigned to the location. Parent mapping are used to share mappings with other locations. Enter mappings at the parent location, and the related locations can use the same mappings. Multiple locations can share a parent. This attribute is useful when multiple locations use one chart of accounts. Changes to a child or parent mapping table apply to all child and parent locations.
Logic Account Group	Select the logic account group to assign to the location. A logic group contains one or more logic accounts that are generated after a source file is loaded. Logic accounts are calculated accounts that are derived from the source data.
Check Rule Group	Select the check rule group to assign to the location. System administrators use check rules to enforce data integrity. A set of check rules is created within a check rule group, and the check rule group is assigned to a location. Then, after data is loaded to the target system, a check report is generated.
Check Entity Group	Select the check entity group to assign to the location. When a check entities group is assigned to the location, the check report runs for all entities that are defined in the group. If no check entities group is assigned to the location, the check report runs for each entity that was loaded to the target system. Check reports retrieve values directly from the target system, source data, or Data Integration converted data.
Consolidation Value	Financial Consolidation and Close customers, in Consolidation Value, you can load the consolidation dimension associated with the FCCS_Entity Input entity, or if you are using a multi-currency application, you can load different override rates or amounts to different source members. The Consolidation dimension allows you to report on details used to perform the various stages of the consolidation process including: FCCS_Entity Input—Amount represents the input for base entities. By way of journals, it is also available to be added for parent entities. FCCS_Amount Override—Used for amount override loads. FCCS_Rate Override - Used for exchange rates loads. By default, the consolidation dimension value is associated with the FCCS_Entity Input entity. A selected data load can load to one consolidation dimension value at a time. Note: For Tax Reporting applications, a rates cube does not have a consolidation dimension. For this reason, leave this field blank so that you can load exchange rates for Tax Reporting applications.
