Must activate scope j58 group ledger during initial scoping

[Macro]

hi SAP experts

I have a question about Public cloud finance J58 group ledger scope , this is not requirement current requirement as customer only have one company and no group reporting requirement

But sap knowledge base and define scope message mentions “this can be added only during initial scoping. If you want to add them after your initial scope has been finalized, your system has to be reprovisioned and your project reimplemented”

As customer may or may not have consolidation requirement in future, I don't think possible to reimplement whole ERP solution due to this reason

I would have SAP expert's recommendation that should we always select this J58 group ledger scope.

And what’s the impact about this e.g. system will always post to this ledger, data volume, addtional configuration 

Thanks in Advance

Dear,

Group ledger set-up is not only for Group reporting and consolidation scenarios.

it would be very useful , for example, if the corporation has or will have subsidiaries overseas, which will need to be adherence to their respective local accounting practice.

with multiple ledgers setup and universal parallel  accounting concept in public cloud, the impacts are big, fixed asset accounting, inventory accounting, production accounting, overhead accounting etc. all these postings can be done in parallel for each ledger
