Setting Up Intercompany Rules; Overview; Matching - Oracle Financial Consolidation Hub User Manual

Overview

An intercompany rule is a mechanism that identifies intercompany activity to be
matched and eliminated. Intercompany rules are applied during both intercompany
and intracompany processing. During intracompany processing, rules eliminate activity
within an operating entity. During intercompany processing, the rules eliminate activity
between two entities.
You use intercompany rules to specify the following:
• Line items to match and eliminate
• Accounts to use when creating suspense entries for unbalanced eliminations
• A suspense threshold tolerance for unbalanced eliminations
An intercompany rule applies to all the consolidation hierarchies defined for your
instance. This eliminates the need to repeatedly define and assign identical
intercompany elimination rules to multiple hierarchies.
If an entity records intercompany balances through line item values rather than an
intercompany dimension, see Task 9: Line Item Intercompany Maps, page 5-13.
