11.100 5000-Expense 300
During consolidation, the consolidation rule produces the entry in the following table:
Entry Produced by Consolidation Rule
Company Cost Center
Organization
Line Item Balance
11.100 3600- Minority Interest B/S -40
11.100 5450- Minority Interest P/L 40
The consolidation rule identifies the balances with line items 4000-Revenue and
5000-Expense as source balances. The other balances in Japan are not identified as
sources because their line items are not included in the consolidation rule formula
scope. The consolidation rule produces a consolidation entry with Line Item
3650-Minority Interest B/S for the sources, whose value is: 0.2 * (-500 + 300)= -40.
Additionally, the consolidation rule produces an offset entry with Line Item
5345-Minority Interest P/L to balance the consolidation entry. The company cost center
organization of the entry is set to the base organization of the source entity, 11.100.
If Track Each Child separately was set to No for the category of the consolidation rule,
the consolidation entry would then use the base organization of the controlling entity,
12.100.

Line Item Balance
12.100 3600-MI (Balance Sheet) -40
12.100 5300-MI (Profit and Loss) 40
In this case, you cannot tell if the source entity of the consolidation entry was Japan or
any other child entity of APAC and Subsidiaries
