Scope dimension

[Former Member]

In the scope dimension, there are property /field called 'Parent Group', 'Elimination Rule'.

What are the real use of these fields. Appreciate inputs.

Hi,

"PARENT GROUP" property is used to create a group structure. If you have multiple group structure within the group structure, you can use this property. This property is even used if you want to have consolidation at sub group level also. This property is refered in ownership Model

I don't see any Elimination Rule property in scope dimension

Please refer the BPC handbook: BPC440 en Col96 Consolidation

Page no. 91

Under the scope group hierarchy , if we are rolling up childrens scope as above, will it not amount to rolling up result in report.

For example, when I run the report at SCOPE= Group1, will not add the group 2, group 3 results and sum it up?

Like how the entities data is totaled in entity hierarchy?

Scope Dimension work in a different way. The hierarchy is not a hierarchy in actual sense, this property is only for generating sub group level consolidation by maintaining ownership level in that level

There will no rolling up of different groups to final groups while creating report.
