How To Fix GC346 - IC Eliminations not defined for document type &

GC346 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GC - Error Messages for Consolidation/Extended General Ledger

• Message number: 346

• Message text: IC Eliminations not defined for document type &

What causes this issue?

An elimination rule has not been entered for the document type
specified.
The version entered in the elimination rule does not correspond to the
version for IC Eliminations. The "IC Eliminations" program is run
using the consolidation version. In the Versions table, a version for
IC eliminations is assigned to the consolidation version.
The period does not correspond.
The fiscal year of the elimination rule is used as the default year,
but the exact period must be addressed.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Peculiarities of non-annual consolidation:
The rules for IC eliminations are read using the period indicator in
table "Valid Periods." If the non-annual consolidation uses different
procedures than the year-end consolidation, then the period indicators
for the non-annual entries are also different than the one for the end
of the fiscal year.
An elimination rule must be defined for every period indicator used.
