Convert reporting unit rollups
To export, adjust, and import the Reporting Unit Rollups data from General Ledger Manager Classic into so that it can be consumed in the new General Ledger Manager, follow these steps:
Export the file
- In General Ledger Manager Classic, go toSetup, thenReporting Unit Rollups.
- Select the Rollup you want then go to Section 2.
- Select the option toExportthe data.
- The export process will generate an.xlsxfile containing 3 columns.
Adjust the file
- Swap Columns A and B:
- Column A should now containEntityCode.
- Column B should now containReportingUnitCode.
- Copy the entire data including headers into a new sheet.
- Remove the values in Column B.
- Select only Column A and remove duplicates for that column. This will prepare a final list for Parent Entities.
- Copy over the entire data (excluding headers) from the old sheet and add as rows below into this current sheet. This will prepare a final list of Child Entities along with corresponding Parent Entities.
- Delete the old sheet and there will be just 1 sheet now which is the new sheet.
- SetSortandFilteroptions on the headers.
- Sort Column A in ascending to descending order. This will give the order of how the import file needs to be for the Rollup module.
- Set a filter on Column A selecting onlyBlanks as option.
- Remove all data resulted from that filter. This will produce a clean file.
- Insert a Column Between B and C:
- This column represents Code level 3 which will be empty in this scenario.
- Make sureAllocation%is in Column D.
- Insert a new column at the end (Column E).
- For every row with data, enterLatestin Column E.
- Save the adjusted file in CSV format.
