Hebrew term or phrase: al kol hamishtamea mikakh
(a general phrase,in my case, an annual report, but it bears no relevance)
Orly Har-Zion
with all the implications thereof
Explanation:
I agree with Daniel that this is one of those problematic Hebrew phrases. I usually translate it as above and have lived to tell the tale. Another possibility is "with all the attendant implications."

"including / and all that that entails / means / implies"


Explanation:
This is one of those problematic Hebrew phrases that often seem to be added for emphasis. The words separated by slashes in my answer are alternatives, but you might find that your context requires something else. Basically, the phrase is usually best translated as part of the main sentence, in English, and not as a separate subordinate clause, i.e. "Everything entailed in [preparing the Financial Statements - or whatever the sentence may be about]"
I'm presuming you don't need a litteral translation of each word.

neutral  John Kinory (X): No offence, but I reallt can't see the problem. Sue's translation is exactly what it means. I don't like the 2 consecutive 'that', which I consider quite awkward; sorry! :-)

  -> none taken :-) . The "problem" I referred to is that this phrase is often redundant.

neutral  Igal Moria: Although I do agree with you that it's not necessary to translate this phrase as is.

Explanation:
I think this is self-explanatory. For a more in-depth explanation, I would need the context in which the phrase occurs.
