Task 8: Value Set Maps
Task 8 is only necessary if you have multiple chart of accounts and need to create value
set maps. For Task 8, you can do the following:
• Create value set maps
• Update the current value set map for a dimension
A value set map specifies the relationship between dimension members in child value
sets to dimension members in the consolidation value set. Each dimension can have
only one value set map, but each value set map can have multiple date effective
versions. You create Value set maps so the system can convert data in multiple value
sets to the single global value set combination you selected in Task 5.
Standardizing on a single chart of accounts is one of the challenges you encounter when
you load data from subsidiaries running different accounting systems in different
regions of the world. Financial Consolidation Hub enables you to standardize on a chart
of accounts using value set mapping capabilities.
Value set maps enable Financial Consolidation Hub to automate the standardization of
data from multiple charts of accounts to a single consolidated chart of accounts. If your
organization uses a single global chart of accounts, you have one value set per
Enterprise Performance Foundation dimension and you do not need to create value set
maps. However, if you have multiple charts of accounts and consequently have
multiple Enterprise Performance Foundation dimension value sets, you must create
value set maps for each dimension that contains more than one Enterprise Performance
Foundation value set.
To create a value set map, use a WebADI spreadsheet loader to map the child display
code values to the values in the consolidation value set. You can also use the
spreadsheet loader to update existing value set maps. Mappings can only be within the
same dimension; you cannot map a value in one dimension to a value in another.
Therefore, you can only map values from a subsidiary's natural account dimension to
the parent's natural account dimension. You cannot map the subsidiary's natural
account dimension to the parent's line item dimension.

Note:
In the spreadsheet loader, you must enter top parents in a row
with its value entered for the Parent and Child columns.
Note:
Creating consolidation hierarchies for the Entity dimension is
done through a separate Consolidation Hierarchy user interface.
