Assets/Liabilities</> checkbox in the reclassification task, the
following applies:
If the processing type is <LS>Consolidation Units</> or <LS>
Equity-Method Investee Units Held for Sale</>, you must select balance
sheet item <LS>Assets Held for Sale</> or <LS>Liabilities Held for Sale
</> as the target assignment.
If the processing type is <LS>Discontinued Consolidation Units</>, you
must use the <LS>Discontinued Operations</> item from the income
statement as the target assignment.
If the processing type is <LS>Partner Units Held for Sale</> or <LS>
Discontinued Partner Units</>, you should allow the assignment of the
trigger (balance sheet or income statement item) to be inherited as the
target assignment.
If you selected the <LS>Valuation Allowance of Assets/Liabilities</>
checkbox in the reclassification task, the following applies:
If the processing type is <LS>Consolidation Units Held for Sale</> or
<LS>Discontinued Consolidation Units</>, you must select balance sheet
item <LS>Assets</> or <LS>Liabilities Held for Sale</> as the target
assignment.
If the processing type is <LS>Discontinued Consolidation Units Without
Sale</>, the target assignment that you specify must be the same as the
balance sheet item that you use to post planned depreciation in the <LS>
Capitalization and Value Allowance of Assets/Liabilities</> task type.
