Mass Allocations v/s Elimination Sets

Hi,

We are planning for Month End Eliminations (to remove Inter Company Balances on Month End Consolidation) in R12 by defining a Ledger Set for Month End Group Consolidation Reporting.

During this Elimination Process, Inter Company Transactions across Ledgers are identified by Related Company Segment in Chart of Account. Balances in Inter Company Code Combinations are reversed into an Elimination Balancing Segment Value (which is Assigned to a Ledger for Eliminations) and Net Difference on each Elimination Group is posted to a Control Account. We have checked that both Mass Allocations as well as Elimination Sets can achieve this Outcome. We are not using Global Consolidation System and there is no plan to use it as well.
