Average currency

Dear Friends,
we are using interval calday variable for fi report. the value should be need inr and us doller so need to calculate average of doller value between days. In BI TCURR table not able to get date format.
Pls share me how and where to get average currency?
Regards

The date format in the TCURR table, no matter which SAP application you're looking at, is in 9s Complement Format. To get the date from TCURR-GDATU, you must do the following calculation:
Effectivity Date = 99999999 - TCURR-GDATU
An example for this would be:
TCURR-GDATU = 79899885
Effectivity Date = 99999999 - 79899885 = 20100114 (14-Jan-2010)
The history behind this date format goes back to the advent of SAP R2. When SAP was invented by former IBM employees, it was originally named SAP R2 and was initialled developed on a mainframe using IMS-DB/DC like technologies. IMS databases used to be only sort data in ascending order. Therefore if date date was loaded to an IMS database in YYYYMMDD format (in most cases it was YYMMDD format instead), any transactions loaded from today would be at the bottom of the database and therefore would affect performance when retrieving data. Therefore, the 9s Complement Format was born whereby they subtracted the current date from all 9s thereby inversing the numbers and making the last date the first (converting 20100114 into 79899885 as in the example). If you weren't curious of the history on this, I apologize. But, I thought there may be others who might be wondering why the date format on TCURR is the way it is.

Reg: RATE APPLICATION

DEAR ALL,
a) Can Anybody explain me the use of "END", "AVG", "AVGFLOW" in rate application for Currency conversion.
b) In BPC Excel, what is mean by Active Workbook.

Hi Chandramohan,
It is required that the currency conversion for some accounts use the average currency rate of a period and some accounts use currency rate at the end of the month or currency rates of previous month and so on.... This in BPC is facilitated by the Rate dimension in the rate application. The user inputs currency conversion rates for avg,end and avgflow accounts (different account members in rate dimension) and the currency conversion logic uses the applicable rates for an account based on the RateType property in account dimension.In general P&L and cashflow accounts use Avg rates and Balance sheet accounts use End of period rate, but it can be a combination of both.
And Active workbook will be the current workbook you will be working on.

Moving Average Price for Material in Dual Currencies

Does a report exist that will display the Moving Average Price of a material using split valuation in more than one currency? For example: Part Number '12345' Qty 10, Moving Average Price (EUR), Moving Average Price (USD), Total Value (EUR), Total Value (USD).

Hi
It is not possible to maintain the material master accounting view in two different currencies. you will have to activate the material ledger for this.

Currency Conversion - update rules for average rate

I am working in BI 7.0
I have a currency conversion I have defined with RSCUR with the exchange rate type 'M' defined in SPRO -> General Settings -> Currencies -> Exchange Rate Types. The currency conversion takes place in my update rules. I've set my 'Time Reference' to 'End of Period'.
I want the conversion to be an average of all rates for the fiscal period. If I check my table using 'OB08', I find my conversion is only using the rate for the last day of the Fiscal Period. It is not averaging all the rates.
My question is this. Can I actually average all the rates for the fiscal period using RSCUR? Do I need to have the people on the R/3 side have the rates be averages? Meaning, the rates they update are not currency rates for that specific day but a running average for the month?
What are the best practices for average rates for currency translations for update rules based on a Fiscal Period?
Edited by: Michael Pepper on Mar 3, 2008 8:37 AM

Hi MIchel,
If you want the conversion to be an average of all rates for the fiscal period.
Check under the cloumn ExRt
you may find some row as description as "Average exchange rate"
Create Currency Conversion type with that exrt type.
use this Currency Conversion type in u'r query for u'r keyfigure.
hope this will be helpfull...........for this you can contact Fi people.

Vijay.

Japanese currency - Moving Average Price

Hi all,
In SAP systems the Moving avg price is stored as 36.88 (JPY currency)in Material Valuation (MBEW).
But in Mainframe side the actual value is stored as
3,688 JPY .
When doing the price calculation in ABAP with this price i want to use the actual value stored in Mainframe and not the one stored in MBEW with decimal points because the JPY currency will not have decimal places.. But i dont know why SAP is storing the value as ' 36.88 ' instead of ' 3688.00 '.
anyway does any one know how to remove the decimal point ' . ' from the above example shown.. so that i can easily use that for price calculation.
Please help.

Hi Hemavathi Durairaj,
Go through the SAP Note : 886532 why price is calculated wrongly.

Item Standard Cost for foreign currency purchase order

Hi there
I have a question about
We have foreign currency purchases of USD which is fixed in USD.
Currently, we are converting this into AUD and entering this as the standard cost.
But if the currency rate is changed, we need to adjust the standard cost of AUD even though the price of USD is still the same.
Does Oracle have standard functionality where we can enter the USD purchase price into the system and have the system rate convert it to AUD whenever we have a new exchange rate?

Hi,
my solutioning would be
1. Create an Org where in item cost is maintained in US$, and perform no material transactions in this Org.
2. Use the prog 'Copy Item Costs Across Organizations', to copy the cost from US$-Org to AUS$-Org using any conversion rate as defined (Corporate, or average etc)
Use this process on regular basis so that you have the latest coversion and cost rate.

Report to show different currencies

Dear Experts,
Currently my report shows value in local currency.
In my report I need to show the PO Value, GR Value etc in local, order and group currency. While investigating the underline Cube and DSO's, I find the following:
1. There is no 0Curtype object in the DSO or corresponding values coming from Datasources.
2. Each record has an Exchange Rate attached to it.
3. All the PO values are converted to local currency. Say a PO is ordered in CAD and the local currency is USD. Now in the transformation the PO Value is converted to local currency using the program PERFORM LOC_CURR_CONVERT which uses the Process Keys, Order_Val, Doc_Date, Order_Curr, Loc_Curr, Exchg_Rate.
4. This is done for other key figures too.
Questions:
1. Which the best way to approach this requirement and how to achieve the objective of showing the report in local, order and group currency? Do I need to make changes in the design if the cube, dso or only at report level and how? pls provide detail steps.
2. In the DSO or Cube's I do not see any Group Currency mentioned? What is Group Currency and how do I achieve it?
Thanks,
Jainu

Hi Jainu
There is no need to change the Cube or DSO's design. Firstly Group currency is usually the global reporting currency used by your client. Usually it is USD if your client is based out of North America. Secondly you need to define different currency conversion types. For that go to RSCUR transaction and define a currency translation type.
- It can be AS02 (Month Average Rate) or AS01(Month End FX Rate) or M (Daily exchange rate) type based on your requirement.
- These values will be available in the TCURR table in your system and will be transferred from SAP R/3 to your BI system.
- In the Currency Translation type definition choose Exchange Rate type in the exchange Rate tab.
- In the currency tab choose "Source currency from Data Record, Target urrency as "Fixed Target Currency" and choose USD in the F4 help.
In the Time Ref tab choose Fixed Time Ref and Current Date.
Activate and move this translation type from Dev to Production in a transport. In order to do a currency conversion using this translation type in your query, choose your key figure and in the conversions tab, choose the conversion type and the Target Currency will automatically get populated as USD. When you run this query after these settings it will return your key figure values in USD. Remember that in the TCUR table your conversions should be maintained for all currencies to USD for this to happen and your READ_EXCHANGE_RATE function module should be defined.
This is a generic approach and does not need any cube or DSO change.

Summary report treats a currency fields as text

In the summary report I have three charts with the currency field. The two charts show 'average' and 'total' but the other chart shows 'percentage' of responses - in other words the report treats that field not as a number but as text. The filed is designated as a currency in the desing view. Why is it treated as text?

Hi,
The percentage of responses is a reference for the responses of that field. If you don't want it to show, you can disable it.
Hope this help,
Perry

Currency Translation

Hi,
We have different needs for the currency translation depending on the financial statement items an movement type.
So, we have defined 2 methods (and 2 tasks) all different.
They are different also in the exchange rate type for the reference translation.
That is, for example:
First method (task):
Exchange rate type for the reference translation (1003 - Historical exchange rate)
Step:
   Investment items
    and type of movement (100 u2013 beginning balance)
Specific translation:
u2022     Currency translation key: periodic
u2022     Exchange rate type: EURX (EMU regulation, variable exchange rates)
Item (Translation Difference):
Item (58200)
    Subitem (58201)
Second method (task)
Exchange rate type for the reference translation (1002 - Average exchange rate)
Step:
    Income statement items
Specific translation:
u2022     Currency translation key: periodic
u2022     Exchange rate type: EURX (EMU regulation, variable exchange rates)
Item (Translation Difference):
    Item (58200)
    Subitem (58202)
PROBLEM:
When we run the methods at consolidation monitor, the second task affects the result of the first task.
The result from the first task is correct.
When we run the second task, which is for income statement items (not this as the first one u2013 investments), System is creating a new step (a cumulative one), which is changing the Exchange rate type for the reference translation of this item; meaning is changing the previous correct values.
Why is this happening?

Thanks for your answer.
So, what you're saying is that I cannot have several Exchange rate type for the reference translation according to financial statement items/movement types?
I always have to have the same Exchange rate type for the reference translation for all the items/movement types?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards.

Currency Translation feature in BEx reports

Hi colleagues,
As you know, when creating queries, you can right click a given key figure and from Currency Translation frame you can select a customized Currency Conversion Key so OLAP engine displays the "converted" value of such Key figure. Standard TCURR table is used for the conversion.
Also, RRC1 txn. code can be used to create Currency Translation Keys to be used in query designer as described before.
I have created a "currency translation key" (let's name it ZTAXILOC) in RRC1.
I have changed my query in the query designer to use this "customized Currency Conversion Key (ZTAXILOC)". My query uses an InfoSet as "infoprovider".
However, when executing query on BEx Analyzer, I receive error message "Cannot apply currency translation type ZTAXILOC in infocube ZTXA04LA3", where ZTXA04LA3 is the name of my infoset that feeds my query.
The Diagnosis is: "You tried to translate a query element with the currency translation type ZTAXILOC. The translation type ZTAXILOC, however, has VARIABLE TIME REFERENCE, relevant to "DH Document Date" characteristic, which is not available in ZTXA04LA3 infoprovider....".
The "DH Document Date" characteristic exists in the ZTXA04LA3 infoset, but technical name changes since for Infosets, BW system dynamically assigns a technical name for each element in the join and it differs from technical in source ODS.
My question is:
Can I use custom "currency translation keys" in query designer if my query uses an infoset as infoprovider? or is custom "currency translation key" just allowed in queries that use an ODS/InfoCube as infoprovider? or should I provide RRC1 with technical name for "DH Document Date" existing on ZTXA04LA3 infoset?
Please advise.
Thank you.
Mario Vallejo.

We are running into similar currrency conversion issues on an infoset. We have an existing currency conversion key created using RRC1. The existing currency key is set up as follows:
TO_USD Convert to USD (Billing)
Exchange Rate Type = Standard translation at average rate
Dynamic Exchange Rate Determination = Yes
Inverse Exchange Rate = No
Source Currency from Data Record = Yes
InfoObject for Determining the Source Currency = No
Selection of Target Currency with Translation = No
Fixed Target Currency = Yes = USD
InfoObject for Determining Target Currency = No
Fixed Time Reference = No
Variable Time Reference = Yes = To the Exact Day = Special InfoObject (0BILL_DATE)
Query Key Date = No
We convert sales amounts to USD using this conversion key on existing cubes. When trying to apply the same conversion key to the new infoset, we received the following error:
Diagnosis:You tried to translate a query element with the currency translation type TO_USD. The translation type TO_USD, however, has variable time reference or variable target currency relevant to characteristic Billing doc. date. Characteristic Billing doc. date is also not available in InfoProvider ZBILLCOST and it references either none or more than one characteristic () of the InfoProvider for Billing doc. date, or Billing doc. date is not a base characteristic.
We have tried to steps in the response to this thread and continue to receive the error.
In Step 1, the only thing that we think we can change is the info object text in the infoset, not the technical name, is this correct?
In Step 2 & Step 3, we have never used variables for currency conversion. We create the currency key using the RRC1 and select the info object for conversion. We did try creating a new currency key in RRC1 and tried to find the newly named (text) info-object for billing date on the infoset, but it wasn't listed as an option under special info-object. Do you have more information on how to create the variable in query designer and how it is used and how to assign to the currency translation?

Moving average price query

Hi Team,
The Purhcase order is created for 50 qty reference to Contract price 284.58 and we have done the GR for 33 qty on 01 April and invoice completed on 07 april for 33 qty and for the remaning qty 17 we have processed the invoice intially before GR on 18 June and reversed it on 19 June and reprocessed invoice for 17 qty on 26 June also mistankenly one more invoice processed for 8 quantity on 26 June and reveresd on the invoice for 8qty on 14 july and finally we processed the Goods receipt for 17 qty on 15 July and system has picked the Material price as 267.81.
I know this is an SAP standard behavior for Material with Moving average price,
The reason for the Goods Receipt Material price value picked by the system as 267.81 is
INVOICE for 17*284.58 = 4837.86
INVOICE for 8* 232.18 = 1857.44
Total 25 = 6695.3
Total value (6695.3) / total quantity (25) = 267.81 (Material price)
Hence when we post the goods receipt system has picked the Material value as 267.81.
Could you please let me know the reason on the SAP behvaiour below
we have revered the invoice on 14 July for 8 qty and processed the GR for remaining PO qty 17 only on 15 July eventhough system has picked the Material price as 267.81
i couldn't able to find the Material price form where system has picked. (it's not update in Material master and table MBEW)
Thanks in advance.

Hi Karthikeyan,
Tcode MR51 check your all material document currency key for amounts in the system which document change to price see you..
MBEW is last average price listed.
You need to change average price use to Tcode MR21

PROBLEM WITH MOVING AVERAGE PRICE

Hi,
Correct me if Im wrong, but from what I know the moving average price should only change or be recalculated when purchases or goods_recipts are made, otherwise items should be consumed at a FIXED moving average price (cost).
I´ve noticed when looking into the Inventory Audit Report that the moving average price is changing in my installations and I see that SAP BO recalculates it every time an issue is made. This last thing only happens when the total amount of the transaction is rounded or left with 0 decimals and the other types such as prices, rates, quantities, percent, etc. are left with 2 or 3 decimals.
Because of my country settings, the total amount has to have 0 decimals (I live in Chile and we dont have cents in our currency) and the moving average price of an Item should not change when an issue is made, can you help me with this?
Thanks and best regards to you all.
Fernando

Hi Nagesh,
Thank you for your quick response.
I understand what you say, but moving average price should not change when an issue is made and that´s what is bothering us.
The difference between what it shoud be and what SAP BO is calculating is our concern, ie: let´s say the number of transactions is 100, would that difference be negligible?
Here is an example:
Goods issue:
SO 8     11     -10,49     166,67     -1.748     99,35     16.559
SO 9     11     -10,49     166,673     -1.748     88,86     14.811
SO 10     11     -10,49     166,678     -1.748     78,37     13.063
SO 11     11     -10,48     166,684     -1.747     67,89     11.316
SO 12     11     -10,56     166,681     -1.760     57,33     9.556
Note that coma (,) is decimal separation and period (.) is the mile separator.
Where the 3rd line is the quantity of the goods issue, the 4th is the moving average, and the 5th is the total quantity of the issue.
So you see 10,49 x 1748 = 1748,39977= 1748(SAP) and then SAP BO recalculates the AVG. Price.
The problem I was talking about was the difference of the stock AVG Price with one hundred transactions or so... now the difference seems negligible (166,7 - 166,681 = 0,011).
Can you see it changes?, is that a bug?
Thank you
Fernando
