Subject: Business Area Consolidation

> Hi Experts!<br/>I have a question regarding the business area consolidation. So far I have just implemented the legal consolidation which is consolidation by company.<br/><br/>Now, I have a requirement to implement the business area consolidation which is for internal consolidation purposes.<br/><br/>I do not understand what is the main difference between those two. What is the purpose of doing business area consolidation? What are the difference compared to legal consolidation?<br/><br/>As I understand, the business area is an organisation object inside the company. <br/>Do we have to also perform the consolidation of investment just like in legal consolidation? But one business area do not belong the other business area just like companies which is presented by the percentage of ownership.<br/><br/>Anyone please help me explaining this. Thanks.<br/><br/>regards,<br/>Xing
