Note
We recommend that you use Management Reporter for Microsoft Dynamics AX to combine the financial results for multiple legal entities in a consolidated format. Management Reporter lets you create consolidated financial reports across legal entities, use Microsoft Excel to import consolidation data from other sources, and translate amounts into any number of reporting currencies without having to run the consolidation process in Microsoft Dynamics AX.
For more information about how to consolidate with elimination transactions by using Management Reporter, see Financial consolidations and currency translation.
