Group Reporting: Mapping, Reconciliation and Product Profitability

Level 5 challenge. 12 million general-ledger lines from SAP, Oracle and a legacy ledger, with no mapping table: the rules are in the manual - ranges, cross-references, dated exceptions and two contradictions. Your mapping must reconcile to the control totals before the 24 questions will come out right.
