group consolidation, e.g. for reporting of non-IS/BS related information.

In order to perform this activity a company defined as Master Company for
Group Consolidation must exist.

Procedure
To define additional code parts:
- Open the Define Additional Code Parts window. One row for
each additional code part is automatically displayed.
- If needed, modify the Internal Name field to correspond with the
purpose of the additional code part.
- To translate the internal name, right-click on the additional code part
to translate, and then click Translation.
- In the Code Used list, select Yes to make the additional
code part available for use in the company, or No if the code part is
not be used. Note that system defined code parts K, L and M
should always be used.
- The Code Part Function field indicates if a special function is
connected to the code part. This is only valid for the system defined code
parts K, L and M and this cannot be changed.
- To change the maximum number of characters for the code part values, use
the Max No of Char field.
- To change the code part description, use the Description field.
- Select the Code Part Mapping checkbox if it should be possible
for a reporting company code part to be mapped against the master company’s
additional code part.
- The System Defined checkbox indicates if the record is a
pre-defined record that cannot be modified by the user. System defined data
comes with the installation and is normally connected to specific
functionality. In this case, code parts K, L and M are
used by specific functions in the Group Consolidation process.
- Save the information.
