Investment Rule-Set

The Investment rule-set consists of two rules/journal detail lines.

This rule-set transfers current period Investments to Goodwill for all Intercompany partners representing siblings. The Goodwill entry will offset with the elimination of Owner's Equity from the partner, leaving a net Goodwill value (if any).

Data posted to the Investment in Subsidiaries ("FCCS_Investment in Sub") account must include an Intercompany partner representing the company in which the investment is held in order for this rule to execute. The account can be set as an "Intercompany" account through metadata maintenance but no "plug" account should be selected. If a "plug" account is entered to the Investment in Subsidiaries account, then both the Standard Eliminations and Investment rule will execute, doubling the elimination.
