Consolidated Eliminations Report
Use the Consolidated Eliminations report to review the accounts and amounts that were eliminated during consolidation processing.
The report displays to-date elimination totals for balance sheet accounts and fiscal year-to-date totals for income statement accounts, through the current accounting period. Any income statement account eliminations from prior years are summarized on a single, separate report line. You can drill down to see the supporting transaction detail for any amount on the report.
Eliminations Processing
During the consolidation process, Vision eliminates (excludes from the merged data) any account balances or portions of account balances that represent intercompany transactions between the companies in the consolidation group, so that the consolidated information gives an accurate view of the financial state of that group as a whole.
Vision automatically eliminates all or portions of the balances of the following accounts used in intercompany transactions:
- Intercompany accounts receivable account
- Intercompany accounts payable account
- Intercompany suspense account
- Regular, overhead, and promotional labor accounts used for labor adjustments and journal entries
- Regular, overhead, and promotional expense accounts used for cost transfers and journal entries
- Balance sheet and other accounts used for journal entries
- Tax accounts used for journal entries
In addition, when you set up a consolidation group, you can specify other accounts that you want Vision to eliminate when it processes a consolidation for that group. You identify these user-defined elimination accounts on the Eliminations tab of the Consolidated Reporting Setup form.
