Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance — Question 135

You are the controller of a multi-entity organization that uses the same chart of accounts and fiscal periods across all entities. You use the financial report designer in Dynamics 365 Finance to create, maintain, deploy, and view financial statements.
You need to generate consolidated financial statements by using a building block group to aggregate data across companies and financial dimensions.
Which three actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer options

• A. Create a column definition and use the period and year to map the appropriate periods for each company.
• B. Create a row definition that includes all appropriate accounts in all companies in the rows.
• C. Create a column definition that includes a financial dimension column for each company.
• D. Create a reporting tree that includes a reporting node for each company.
• E. Use the Reporting Unit field to select the tree and reporting unit for each column.

Correct answer: B, C, D

Explanation

The correct answers B, C, and D are essential for creating consolidated financial statements. B ensures all relevant accounts are included, C adds financial dimension columns for each company, and D organizes the reporting structure. Options A and E do not directly contribute to the consolidation process; A focuses on period mapping and E pertains to reporting unit selection, which are not necessary for building the consolidated statements.
