LegalApp vs Finance App

[Former Member]

We are at the very beginning stage of implementation of BPC. We are planning to use it for both Consolidations and Planning. At this time, we are awaiting the system insatallation.

Both Consolidations and Planning require the following:

Eliminations, Currency conversions, Validations, Equity and minority interest postings, intercompany bookings, automatic adjustments and at least 8 reporting currencies. The rules and master data should be leveraged by both functions - Consolidations and Planning.

The question is: In the interest of time and efficiency, does one start with the preconfigured Finance App or the preconfigured LegalApp?....or does it even matter because per the admin manual "You can add available tables to an app"

Thank you.

In the case you want to use the business rules, I would start with the LegalApp since this app has much more preconfigured business rules tables for eliminations etc.

Personally I always think it's easier to get rid of what you don't need then to create something you need which is not yet in the application.
