Konsolidierter

Konsolidierter is the German adjective form of konsolidieren, meaning united, stabilized or integrated. It is used to describe something that has been made solid or brought together into a single, functioning whole. In general use, it can refer to plans, structures, finances or data that have been stabilized or strengthened by consolidation.

In economics and accounting, a konsolidierte Bilanz or konsolidierte Jahresrechnung refers to the financial statements of a corporate group prepared as if the group were a single economic entity. The statements combine the assets, liabilities, equity and results of the parent and its subsidiaries, with intra-group balances and profits eliminated to avoid double counting. Consolidation follows applicable standards such as IFRS or national rules, and the approach typically involves full consolidation, with variations for different group structures.

In medicine, konsolidiert describes tissue that has become solidified, most commonly in reference to lungs. A konsolidierter Lungenlappen describes areas of lung tissue that have solidified due to processes such as pneumonia or edema, detectable in clinical examination or radiological imaging. The term can also appear in discussions of tissue consolidation in other organs.

In information technology and data management, the term konsolidieren is used for data consolidation, the process of merging data from multiple sources into a unified database or data warehouse to improve consistency, accessibility and governance.

The concept of konsolidierung thus spans finance, medicine and data management, all centered on unifying, stabilizing or strengthening multiple elements into a single, coherent whole.
