Explanation
The Consolidation dimension is used to store data at different levels of consolidation, such as Entity Input, Entity Currency, Parent Currency, etc. The dimension uses a separate member for data from an entity's level-zero descendants, which is called the Contribution member. This member shows the data from the children entities before any adjustments or eliminations are applied. The other statements are not correct descriptions of the Consolidation dimension. The dimension does not allow users to view data in the parent currency (this is done by the Currency dimension), to see input versus journal adjustment data (this is done by the Data Source dimension), or to store non-controlling interest and joint venture data (this is done by the Ownership dimension).
