Financial consolidation is a critical process in being able to produce financial statements for large companies and multinational organizations. SAP Group Reporting is the functionality provided in SAP S/4HANA to manage the financial consolidations process. SAP Group Reporting replaces functionality formally used in the ECC environment such as EC-CS, SEM-BCS, and SAP BPC for the consolidations. SAP introduced “Group Reporting” based on SAP S/4HANA Universal Ledger as of 1809 release. Participants are encouraged to share their usage of the tools for consolidation purposes.
