• Key Concepts: 
  Group reporting is a feature of SAP Financial Accounting (FI) that allows companies to consolidate financial data from multiple subsidiaries into one report. This report can be used to analyze the financial performance of the entire group, as well as to compare the performance of individual subsidiaries. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Group reporting in SAP FI is enabled by setting up a group chart of accounts and assigning each subsidiary to the group. Once this is done, the financial data from each subsidiary can be consolidated into a single report. This report can then be used to analyze the overall performance of the group, as well as to compare the performance of individual subsidiaries. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a group chart of accounts, it is important to ensure that all subsidiaries are assigned to the same group. This will ensure that all financial data is consolidated correctly and that the report accurately reflects the performance of the entire group.
