Various embodiments described herein provide improved functionality for performing tier consolidation for organizations having any type of hierarchical structure, so as to increase flexibility, speed, accuracy, and performance in generating reports and conducting analysis on a company's operations and performance. Consolidation can be performed at any suitable time, such as for example at the end of some period, at which time it may be useful to generate accounting and/or financial reports for the organization. In at least one embodiment, the described techniques improve on conventional tier consolidation mechanisms by employing parallel processing on multiple nodes at the same level. In situations where processing of one node might interfere with processing of another node, a resource locking mechanism is used to prevent such interference, so as to ensure accuracy and avoid corruption of data.
