Can DualEntry consolidate financials across multiple entities?

Yes — Multi-Entity Consolidation organizes companies into a parent-child hierarchy, each with its own books, and consolidates them on demand with configurable intercompany eliminations and currency translation into the parent currency.

What standard financial statements does DualEntry produce?
