Box 1: Consolidation company

Eliminations can be reported in multiple ways:

* A separate company can be created and used to manually determine and post elimination transactions. This company can be used in the consolidation process or in financial reporting.

* Elimination rules can be set up in the system.

* The accounts and financial dimensions that are used to determine intercompany activity can be filtered on a row definition or column definition in Financial reporting, and full drill-down capabilities can be used.

Box 2: Financial reporting

There are multiple options for consolidating data:

* Financial reporting – This option enables consolidation of transactions and balances, and can be generated at any time. Multiple levels of hierarchies can be created, and multiple reporting currencies can be viewed.

* Consolidate online – This option consolidates daily balances by the selected accounts and dimensions, and stores them in a consolidation company.

* Consolidate with import – This option imports balances into a consolidation company.

Export company balances

Note: The CEO is considering the acquisition of additional companies in the same countries as the current companies. The consolidation structure may change within the first 90 days of go-live. Margie’s does not want to finalize the consolidation structure for a hard-close at month’s end until this has been finalized.

Data migration is a key success factor in almost every implementation. A primary concern of some customers is the speed that data can be migrated at, especially if there are vast amounts of data and a small cutover window. The Data migration framework is also used to move data as part of business requirements and operations.

A data package for a Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations app can consist of one or many data entities. A typical data package consists of a group of entities for a specific task, process, or function.

Note: A mock cutover was conducted. It was unsuccessful due to lack of coordination across the countries. The lack of success created timing issues with data uploads from centralized IT and validation at the country level. User1 must use a standard template to prevent the mock cutover issue happening at go-live.

Margie’s created a second company based in Jamaica, followed by the acquisition of a third company in the United Kingdom (UK).

All three countries must use Dynamics 365 Finance.

Margie’s Travel wants to enable customer self-service in the future for customers based in the US and UK.
