Financial Consolidation In SAP EPM
Financial Consolidation as a solution in SAP EPM can be confusing in 2021.  As an experienced SAP Financial Consolidation consultant, we are here to help and make matters clearer for clients. 
 
When we talk about Financial Consolidation, we refer to the following software solutions:
 
SAP BFC
Also known by its full name SAP BusinessObjects Financial Consolidation, SAP BFC is effectively the rebranded solution developed and sold by French software company Cartesis in the early 2000s.
Software versions earlier than v10 are effectively out of support and clients should either upgrade or consider implementing new technology.
 
SAP Financial Consolidation
Subsequent versions of SAP BFC were developed into the enduring version known as SAP Financial Consolidation from v10.1 onwards.  Known colloquially as SAP FC, it brings enhanced User Experience on HTML5 platform along with unified intercompany reconciliations at company level.  During the COVID pandemic in 2020, SAP announced extended support for customers running SAP Financial Consolidation until 2027.
 
SAP S/4 HANA for Group Reporting
The latest flagship solution by SAP is the Group Reporting for S/4 HANA.  Combining real-time consolidation processes, Group Reporting accelerates performance in a unified environment including reconciliation, eliminations and automated adjustments. 
 
As certified SAP BFC Consultants we understand the system inside out and have deep expertise in all domains and modules.  We are true experts in the field and keep ourselves informed of the latest trends in the industry.
