Inactivate an ownership structure

Inactivating an ownership structure can be useful when you no longer need to run consolidations for the ownership structure, but want to keep records of historical consolidations.

An inactive ownership structure enables you to keep an ownership structure even if you are not running any active consolidations on it.

  1. Go to Consolidation > Setup > Ownership structures.
  2. Select Edit next to the ownership structure that you want to edit.
  3. Activate the ownership structure by selecting the Active status.
  4. Select Save to save and close the ownership structure.

    Alternatively, select Save and continue to save the ownership structure and proceed to the next step of ownership structure creation.

  1. Go to Consolidation > Setup > Ownership structures.
  2. Select More > Edit next to the ownership structure that you want to edit.
  3. Activate the ownership structure by selecting the Active status.
  4. Select Save to save and close the ownership structure.

    Alternatively, select Save and continue to save the ownership structure and proceed to the next step of ownership structure creation.

What happens when you inactivate an ownership structure

When you inactivate an ownership structure, Intacct does the following:

  • Inactivates and hides the books related to that ownership structure.
  • Prevents inactive books from being consolidated through the API.

Inactive ownership structure books are hidden from the following pages:

  • Ownership structures page
  • Books page
  • Consolidate ownership structure page

If you activate a book that was previously inactive, that book will be available for processing from where it left off in the prior consolidation.
