Terminology:
Real Time Consolidation: An integrated application designed to support real-time access to
transactional and Master data within S/4HANA Finance with limited or no data replication of the
underlying data, aligned with the S/4HANA Finance concept of support for real-time business.
Traditional Consolidation: A separate dedicated application designed to support sourcing of
data from multiple systems via periodic replication of transactional data. In addition Master and
Meta data must also either be replicated or maintained directly in both systems. .
