Entity - In Use Feature

Hi all,

We have a situation where an Entity was created and incorrectly set up and contains data for period 2024M12 and 2025M3.

We decided to create a new Entity and updated the transformation rules to ensure that the data loaded goes to the newly created member and not the old one.

We have set the consolidation and ownership percentage of the old entity to 0 as added measure.

We are now faced with the challenge of not deleting the member as it contains data.

Kindly asking if it is advisable to set the In Use feature in this scenario and is there any impact that would cause.

Thanks in advance.

    If it's an entity that contains data but you don't want it to consolidate nor allow users to mistakenly load data to it, you can change the In Use to False. What type of impacts are of concern?
