CCR needs to pull journals (company & GAC) layer by layer by subgroups unlike in PA which can be pulled directly in group level

The way CCR pulls journals is still too rigid, as compared to PA.

In CCR Journal reports can only be generated group by group. Unable to select multiple groups.

Auditors request for ALL journals to be provided, in this case, the consolidation team exports a report for each group which exists one by one.

In PA, there is flexibility for us to pull all relevant groups, and corresponding company, which enables us to pull all journals all at once.

The only downside on PA side is that it lacks journal description, and other details like last modified date/time, etc.

We use XBJH table in CCR to combine/ supplement what we extract from PA to get all details needed which is not the best way as it takes time and subject to inaccuracy due to manual workaround.
