In D365 Finance, the consolidation entity stores only a single currency layer based on the option selected during “Consolidate Online” (Accounting Currency or Reporting Currency).
This prevents Financial Reporter from showing both:
- Subsidiary accounting currency (e.g., SGD)
- Consolidation reporting currency (e.g., QAR)
in the same consolidated company.
Business Impact:
- Global companies using multiple subsidiaries with different COA and different functional currencies cannot generate MIS reports with both local currency and group currency in one entity.
- This becomes a significant limitation for multinational organizations operating in 20–50 countries.
- SAP S/4HANA and Oracle ERP Cloud support multi-currency ledgers by default, which allows reporting in subsidiary currency + group currency in a single consolidated ledger.
Requested Behavior:
- Allow the consolidation entity to store multiple currency layers, including:
- Subsidiary accounting currency
- Consolidated reporting currency
- Original transaction currency
- Expose all these layers in Financial Reporting (FR) column definitions.
Value:
- Enables complete global consolidations
- Reduces duplication of consolidation companies
- Aligns D365 with SAP/Oracle capabilities
- Enhances financial accuracy, transparency, and compliance
- Greatly simplifies multi-COA, multi-currency reporting
