Creating an Automated Elimination

Tip: Automated Eliminations cannot be deleted. However, if you create an Automated Elimination in error it can be modified and reused for a new automated elimination.
Note: The dual currency of the selected source companies and the destination company must be the same.
Note: If you retrieve source transactions posted to GLAs that use any currencies other than Dual, then these currencies must be added to the Destination company as accounting currencies.
