What does a Force Consolidation do regardless of the calculation status?

A Force Consolidation is specifically designed to consolidate all periods in the current year, regardless of their calculation status. This means that even if a particular period has not yet been calculated or is marked as not needing recalculation, the Force Consolidation command will include that period in the consolidation process. This feature is useful in scenarios where there is a need to ensure that the most up-to-date and comprehensive data set is being analyzed, without the condition of whether the calculations have been run recently.

In a system where accurate financial reporting is crucial, using Force Consolidation guarantees that the latest available data is taken into account, which can be very important for decision-making processes. Other options suggest consolidating based on different conditions or entities, which do not reflect the general behavior of a Force Consolidation command as it pertains specifically to the current year periods.
