You can schedule the consolidation process to run at a later time.

To schedule the consolidation process to run at another time:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select General Ledger > Consolidations.
  2. In the Range of Periods fields on the Consolidations form, select the beginning and ending accounting periods for which you want to consolidate data.
  3. In the list of groups in the grid, select the consolidation groups for which you want to run the consolidation process.
  4. Click Schedule.
  5. On the Main tab of the Schedule dialog box, select a processing queue, enter a description for the job, and specify the date and time that you want the consolidation process to run.
    You can also choose to add the job to a profile, or set alerts and notifications to be sent when the job is completed.
  6. If you want the process to occur periodically, click the Recurrence tab, select the Recurring Activity checkbox, and set how often you want it to recur.
  7. Click OK.
After the consolidation process completes, you can run consolidated general ledger reports for the consolidation groups that you processed.
