Custom Sub-Consolidation Reporting
By default, the system configures reports using the Custom Sub-Consolidation system parameters for the
Tax Provision
and Effective Tax Rate
.The Custom Sub-Consolidation system parameter lets you:
- View the Tax Provision and Effective Tax Rate reports at the sub-consolidated level showing Sub Consolidation, rather than Unit detail.
- Create multiple CSC groupings in the system; for example, define one CSC to view units by region and another to view units by management lines.
To review the parameter, select

Creating Sub-Consolidations:
In
Manage Units
> Unit Sub-Consolidations
, create a parent sub-consolidation beginning with CSC#_X_. You can have multiple CSC breakout's by multiple parent Sub-Consolidations (for example, CSC1_X_Regions and CSC2_X_Management). In each of the parent sub-consolidations, include all units for the child Sub-Consolidation.To create a parent add a
Code
, and Name
.In
Manage Units
> Unit Sub-Consolidations
, create multiple child sub-consolidations starting with CSC#_ (for example, CSC1_North America and CSC1_EMEA or CSC2_Corporate, CSC2_Manufacturing).- Include all units defined for the Parent CSC in only one Child sub-consolidation to ensure that report results are meaningful.
- To create a child add aCode, andName.
In the following example, D1000, D2000, F1000, and F2000 can only belong to one child sub-consolidation, either CSC1_Domestic or CSC1_Foreign.
Unit Code | CSC1 X Worldwide | CSC1 Domestic | CSC1 Foreign |
|---|---|---|---|
D1000 | X | X | N/A |
D2000 | X | X | N/A |
F1000 | X | N/A | X |
F2000 | X | N/A | X |
D1000, D2000, F1000, and F2000 can only belong to one child sub-consolidation, either CSC1_Domestic or CSC1_Foreign.
- To import, complete the appropriate fields on the #CSC# Sub-Consolidations sheet in the Import Categories template. You can create a sheet named #CSC2#, which allows the creation and population of multiple sub-consolidations for a Unit. Column A should have the Unit Code and Columns B through IV should have the CSCs in which the unit should be included. Existing unit designations in a CSC are replaced, not appended, when the #CSC2# is imported. This sheet does not export when categories are exported and is not in the standard template for import categories.
Viewing CSC Reports
- After activating parameters, the Effective Tax Rate CSC Breakout report is available.
- To display a report, be sure to select the parent sub-consolidation (for example, CSC1_X_Regions and CSC2_X_Management) in the Report Level list. The report displays a Total column and a column for each CSC.
