Group currency change in SCC4

Hello,
We are planning to change the group currency in DEV enviroment (we are not live yet), would like to know if you guys are aware of any further implications regarding this change, os is this really as simple as that.
Thnks.

Thks for your fast response Srikanth, I've seen the OSS and as we are not live yet and we have no test data yet (we're just starting realization phase), may I assume there is no risk in changing this currency?
In the other hand, should this group currency be configured as the controlling area currency as well in order to avoid inconsistencies as stated in OSS 119428?
Regards,

  • Transaction to Change Group Currency in a Specific Ledger

    Hi Everyone,
    Is there a transaction where I can choose a ledger to post an entry in group currency only?  I need something similar to F-05 but have the ability to post to a specific ledger.
    Thanks,
    Pete

    Hello,
    At the time of clearing, the foreign exchange differences cannot be posted.
    You need to do the foreign currency revaluations of open items Refer F.05 or F-05
    Please note once document is posted currency or amount cannot be changed.

  • How to change config to allow posting to group currency field

    Hi,
    I am experiencing a problem whereby the asset for my local currency (USD) is different from my group currency (USD). There are many wrong postings causing this difference.
    And it is too late & tedious to do all the correction.
    Area 01 Local Currency (USD)
    Area 03 Group Currency (USD)
    However, I would like to do a posting to asset in both loc & group currency. My current config does not allow changes to group currency field when posting a transaction to an asset. It is grey off. System auto generate the figure.
    How to I change the config so that I can also input a different figure for the group currency ?
    Please help urgently.
    Thanks.

  • Group Currency setup

    Dear Experts,
    SAP client level- Currency (INR) was set up for my client and now he want to have reporting in USD also.
    When we define Group currency (OB22) then system will consider Client currency.
    I changed Client level(SCC4) currency to USD then I was able to set up group currency as USD.
    Will these changes cause any problems in Existing system, Please let me know.
    Thanks, Meena

    Hi Expert,
    Suggestible not to change Group Currency, if it is already configured..
    In case of fresh configuration, then use this following options...
    By changing client level as USD, it won't effects any things, but it will change Group Currency as USD for entire client.
    We have one more option to use additional currencies in OY01 w.r.t our company code, If our company code country is IN, then in T-Code: OY01, go to INR and provide Index Based Currency as USD or Hard Currency as USD, which can be used for our parallel currencies.
    This answer may conclude your problem...

  • Exchange rate difference posted to Group currency only during MIRO

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    We're activating parallel currency in ML and USD is the group currency. GR/IR clearing acct is managed in local currency only.
    OB22
    Crcy Type  30    Group currency                               Currency   USD
    Valuation        Legal Valuation
    ER Type    M     Standard translation at average rate
    Srce curr. 1     Translation taking transaction currency as a basis
    TrsDte typ 3     Translation date
    Please find below scenario:
    Co code currency: ZAR
    PO: ZAR
    Upon GR:
    Posting date- 04/14/2009 exch. rate 1ZAR= 0.11099 USD
    Entry: debit Expense - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
              credit GR/IR acct -   4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
    Upon IR:
    Posting date- 04/20/2009 exch. rate 1 ZAR= 0.11279 USD
    Entry: debit GR/IR acct - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
              credit Vendor acct - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 460.02 USD
    automatic additional debit Expense - 0.00 ZAR/ 7.38 USD
    Here are my questions:
    1.) Where would I check the setting for the GL account used in the automatic line entry posted in group currency during IR? (3rd line item above)
    2.) Can this be changed? Say instead of the original acct assignment, the management want to change it to FX gain/loss account
    3.) How?
    I have checked several notes (331910,etc) but I can't seem to find the answers to my questions.
    Appreciate your help. Thanks!
    Regards
    Dru

    Just an update to this issue- I just found out that the system is pointing to KBS when posting the
    exchange rate difference in group currency upon IR, hence, PO account
    assignment is adopted. I'd like to rephrase my question- is there any
    way we can change SAP behaviour such that it will point to other
    transaction key (e.g. KDG) other than KDM? Bottomline is we want it
    charged to other GL account not the one in the PO.
    Thanks so much for your assistance.
    Regards,
    Dru

  • Company code currency balance not equal Group currency balance

    Dear experts,
    Some of our account balances are inconsistent bewteen the company code and the group amount. This company has the same currency in both the company code and group currrencies which are USD. The exchange quotation is also setup in OB08 with 1 in both dir / indir quote. Below is an example for a HKD expenses with a HKD AP account.
    GL accounts setup with same currency as company code / group currency.
    Exchange quotation setup in OB08 for HKD to USD is dir.qut. 7.8 and indir.quot 7.8.
    After translation, the result supposed to be,
    In Document currency, Dr expenses HKD780, Cr AP HKD780
    In Local currency (company code currency), Dr expenses USD100, Cr AP USD100
    In Group currency, Dr exepnses USD100, Cr AP USD100
    However, the current result is,
    In Document currency, Dr expenses HKD780, Cr AP HKD780
    In Local currency (company code currency), Dr expenses USD100, Cr AP USD100
    In Group currency, Dr exepnses USD110, Cr AP USD110
    The amount in local and group currency should be the same supposedly as they are in the same currency.
    Have anyone ever experienced the same situation?

    Thanks all,
    I have checked that both 1st local currency (company code currency) and 2nd local currency (group currency) are USD.
    Our user also didn't change the group currency amount during data entry as there seems no way to alter the amount as it is greyed out.
    Is there any other configuration or system flow that may be configured to post these 2 currency amount in a different way of translation?

  • Alternate Exchange Rate Type Not Picked while converting from Document Currency to Group Currency

    Hello Gurus,
    We have setup an alternate Exchange Rate type MNB for rate M for the postings happening in Hungary. Local currency is HUF. Group currency is USD.
    If the document currency is, lets say, EUR, latest MNB rate is correctly picked up (EUR to HUF) and postings are correctly converted into local currency (HUF).
    Although, for the same document, when a group currency is being calculated (EUR to USD), exchange rate type M is being picked up. Same happens if  document currency is HUF. Even then, the conversion is based on exchange rate type M.
    Is this a normal SAP behavior? How to prevent/correct this? This is also throwing off balances when we check in FAGLB03 or BSEG values in local and group currencies. In OB22, we have local currency1 and local currency 2 setup with exchange rate type M and we may not want to make any changes there as it is setup at global level.
    Do we need to run any valuations after the fact? if so, how?
    Thank you for your inputs in advance.
    Regards,
    Sagar

    Hi,
    You mentioned that "in OB22, we have local currency1 and local currency 2 setup with exchange rate type M". Then, I'm wondering how MNB is picked up for the first local curr. conversion to HUF? It should be 'M' instead. There must be some settings in your instance for such behavior. Can you check that?
    Actually, Group Curr. conversion happens with the rate defined for 2nd Loc.Curr.in OB22 which is 'M' in your case. Therefore, all the transactions are converted with M instead of MNB.
    Since you can't change OB22 per global co.policy, the exch.rate defined in OBA7 will overrule OB22. However, you've to make sure it's set up for all doc.types which are affected and posted in different curr. than HUF.
    As a workaround, another thought would be to maintain the same conversion rate for both exch.rate types MNB & M, for eg. HUF > USD rate is the same both exch.rate type MNB & M. This way, you ensure all transactions are posted with correct exch.rate irrespective of whatever rate type is used.
    From business, & global org. perspective, I'm sure they are sending the 'M' exch.rates to all their sister concerns monthly, so they would like to consolidate results as per standard rate in their system. Then, why ,as a local company, would you like to fiddle with standard process? It's a management decision, please run them through again before going ahead.
    Thanks,

  • How to post group currency

    SAP FI: F107 valuation (for doubtful debts provision) will not post group currency?
    IN SAP, transaction F107 valuations, which executes valuation calculation for doubtful debt provision and then updates GL using background processing is only posting amounts in local currency (CHF); group currency value is 0.00. Group currency (DKK) for company code. If I post general posting eg FB50 or F-02, local currency values translate to group currency automatically. How do I get F107 to automatically translate and post group currency also?

    Hello,
    At the time of clearing, the foreign exchange differences cannot be posted.
    You need to do the foreign currency revaluations of open items Refer F.05 or F-05

  • Group Currency

    Hello,
    What is the meaning of Group currency ?
    How it can be changed ?
    Thanks for your co-operation...
    SAnjay

    Hello
    A group currency is used in the consolidated financial statements.
    Before the consolidation process can be completed, all values in the individual financial statements must be translated from the local or transaction currency into group currency.
    Check Global settings and the Consolidation settings for changing.

  • Group currency update problem

    Hi FICO gurus
    We have a problem of group currency update.
    We have company code currency GBP and 2nd local currency activated (Group currency) also in GBP.
    Now when we do postings in FI, some of the FI documents are not updating 2nd local currency amount (Group currency).
    Hence while clearing the 2 or more line items in the same GL account we are having a problem of exchange rate fluctuations in group currency.
    Does any one know why some of the documents are not updating group currency?
    Do we need to really maintain OBA1 configuration (exchange rate derivation)?
    Thanks for your reply
    Mr GK

    Does the ECCS ledger include group/ledger currency in the definition (CXL2)?
    Another thing to check is that if the desired GC values are loade in before the translation. If so, the translation method can be changed to "do not translate" for certain items such as the P&L items. This way the values are not changed from the original ledger CAD values as a result of translation.

  • SUB-Group consol. in different currency i.e. other than group currency

    HI Friends,
    Consolidation Group currency is "USD". In the consolidation hierarchy, i have one sub group where all the companies are in AUD.
    Now the requirement is that australian sub group requires sub consolidation in AUD.
    Currently we are doing sun consolidation and the results are as expected, but they are in group currenmcy "USD".
    Is there any option to get the sub groupconsolidation report in AUD i.e. different than group currency.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Richard

    Hi ,
    Yes it is possible.
    Direct in UCMON and change your group currency, but you must do again full proces consoidation in this group currenct,  or in  your query (query designer) you create a new report and use transaltion currency direct in report.

  • Reporting in Group currency

    Dear All,
    We have an issue related to report as below
    Our SAP system is currently set up to report in the following company currencies :-
    1000     GBP
    2000     GBP
    3000     EUR
    4000     EUR
    5000     GBP
    Currently our reporting or group currency is GBP, so  co.code 3000 and 4000 are also reported in GBP.
    The issue is, can we report in more than one Group currency at a time ?  If possible we would like to
    report group results in GBP and EUR. If that was not possible, is it difficult to change Group currency from GBP to EUR.
    Looking for your sugggestions.
    Thanks in advance
    Prasad

    Hi Paul,
    Thanks for your quick reply.
    All the above mentioned co.codes are assigned to only one controlling area.
    In controlling area currency settings are as below:
    Currency type: 30 : group currency
    Currency       : GBP
    Now can you please suggest me, how to proceed further.
    Thanks in advance
