# Manage consolidations

Last modified February 19, 2026

> By using the functionality of the General ledger workspace, you can consolidate data from specific branches of subsidiaries (or consolidation units) into a specific branch of the parent company.


By using the functionality of the General ledger workspace, you can consolidate data from
specific branches of subsidiaries (or consolidation units) into a specific branch of the parent
company.
You can configure which data should be consolidated and how exactly the data should be
consolidated.
After that, you can consolidate the data as often as you need within each
financial period.

This functionality is available only if the **General ledger consolidation** functionality is enabled in the [Enable/disable functionalities (CS100000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/common-settings/enable-or-disable-functionalites/enable-disable-functionalities-cs100000/index.md) window.

In the overview below, you can find topics that describe the consolidation process when both the subsidiary and the parent
company use Visma Net.

Consolidation data is available through the standard simple object access protocol (SOAP)
gateway, so third-party software can be used by either side.
