Eliminations of Internal Margins in Non-current Assets (50 000) | ||||
|
BW_IT501.xml [v24.05 and later:] DIM01_IT501.xml DIM01_MLP_IT501.xml [v24.05 and latercontent ends] |

CardSheet |
Admin User > Basic Input and Report Templates > Input |
Used for entering internal margins in non-current assets. Internal margins that are activated in the balances of group enterprises are subtracted when compiling the group balance from their corresponding items and equity. The change in internal margins is eliminated from the financial year revenue. Internal margins and their fluctuations are entirely eliminated, independent of the group share in the enterprise that has disposed of or received goods with internal margins. A task with the ID CardSheet can only have a type 6 document series as the value for the voucher component. [v24.05 and later:] In Web Client, parallel versions of the template exist which can be utilized alternatively in environments where card entries are allocated to the units of dimension 01 or where conversion method is Unit currency * currency rate. [v24.05 and latercontent ends] Note that unnecessary modifications to the template should be avoided as a modified template may not function correctly in all situations. If you need to customize the template, remember to take a copy of the original. For information about the XML definitions of the template, refer to Clausion Input and Report Template Parameters. [v24.05 and later:] [v24.04 and earlier:] |

CardSheet |
Admin User > Basic Input and Report Templates > Input |
Used for entering and managing subsidiary ownerships and changes in them. An elimination of equity investments document is created when the subsidiary is formed, that is, when the group has acquired a share that gives them control over the entity (the ownership usually being at least 50%). A task with the ID CardSheet can only have a type 6 document series as the value for the voucher component. [v24.05 and later:] In Web Client, parallel versions of the template exist which can be utilized alternatively in environments where card entries are allocated to the units of dimension 01 or where conversion method is Unit currency * currency rate. [v24.05 and latercontent ends] Note that unnecessary modifications to the template should be avoided as a modified template may not function correctly in all situations. If you need to customize the template, remember to take a copy of the original. For information about the XML definitions of the template, refer to Clausion Input and Report Template Parameters. [v24.05 and later:] [v24.04 and earlier:] |

BW_IT701.xml |
BW_input 70000 series example.xlsx |
InputSheet70000 |
Admin User > Basic Input and Report Templates > Input |
Used for entering elimination rows that are not created with the internal transactions input, equity elimination, or margins templates (for example, elimination entries from merger revenues). Otherwise use the same user interface task definitions as for Basic input template except remove settings for the dimension component and add settings for the voucher component using the desired document series as value (default task: 70000). |
Other Entries, Periods 0–12 (70 000) | ||||
BW_IT702.xml |
BW_input70000 all periods.xlsx |
InputSheet70000 |
Admin User > Basic Input and Report Templates > Input |
See the description above. Otherwise use the same user interface task definitions as for Basic input template except remove settings for the dimension component and add settings for the voucher component using the desired document series as value (default task: 70000). Period IDs 0 to 12 have been set for the data columns, therefore this template works as such only in environments that include these period IDs. |

Add definitions for these in the local report copy if you want to reconcile internal transactions on consolidated levels. Add the same definition to each sheet, to both unit and counter unit. In UI management, an applicable example for parameters is available to add. By default, the data includes only series 20000 and 23000 (can be changed in Advanced Options). |
