Bex: currency conv at prev date

Hello BE Experts,
Wondering if there is a way to do the currency conversion in the Bex report for a previous date currency rates.
eg: I want to run the report for the past 6 months of sales for the europe in USD. each month is displayed in the one column. For each month can we get the currency conv rates of that month rather than the current month ?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
BWer

Hi,
Yes you can very much achieve what you require.
For that you would need to create a Currency coversion key(txn. RRC1) which picks up the exchange rate for that particular month and attach the key to the key figure in BEx.
Hope it helps.
Cheers

BEx Currency Translation for planned Currency rate

Dear Experts,
The requirement of my query is to convert the key figures to Group Currency (EUR) at a fixed exchange rate defined by the user in the beginning of a planning cycle.
In the IMG I have created an Exchange Rate type for manual input and defined the exchange rate for a fix date for the currencies I want to convert.
When creating Currency conversion type (tcode RSCUR) in the tab Exchange Rate Ive chosen my Exchange Rate type and the option Dynamic Exchange Rate Determination. In the Currency tab Ive chosen a variable of manual input for the currency and the option Target Currency Selection with translation. In the Time Ref. I opted for a fixed time reference.
On the query definition I choose Currency conversion type and the variable I created for it.
Can anyone tell me how can we allow the user to commute between the two currencies in the query for the same translation?
Another question/problem is that we are using the table TCURR for keeping the exchange rates for the planning process. Does anyone has a different solution to keep this currency rates?
Many Thanks and Best Regards,

Hi
So these planning functions work in the same way as the BEx Currency translation? it makes the currency conversion to present the data in the new currency. If I save the data I will keep the data in the new currency, am I right?
**Yes.**
If I am using the same Key figure for source and target key figure can I still use the standard IP function?
**Yes.**
And if I wanted to convert back to the original currency I had to create a new planning function and a new currency translation type to do the opposite?
**You can try Repost Function.**

Currency Translation on Key Date for AR Aging

Need your valuable advice!
I have created an AR Aging query including both Open and Cleared Items based on 0FIAR_C03_Q0005 standard query. However the requirement is to do currency translation to Group Currency (USD) on Key Date. This Key date is defaulted to today but the user can change this to go back in time and pull all the ARs as of that back dated key date.
I was planning to create a currency translation type on M rate based on the Key Date Variable in RSCUR. However I am confused on which variable to base this currency translation. I have several key date variables in my query such as 0P_KEYD2 (based on Posting Date), 0P_KEYDT (based on Net Due Date) and 0P_KEYD3 (based on Clearing Date).
Which Key Date Variable should I use in 'Time Reference from Variable' field in RSCUR? Would it be one of the 3 mentioned above or something else and why?
Appreciate your valuable advice.
Thanks,
Al

Hi,
Yes I do want to use the Key date from the variable screen and I am using the standard 0FIAR_C03_Q005 with slight modification including currency translation.
As I mentioned in my original post I have several key date variables in this query such as 0P_KEYD2 (based on Posting Date), 0P_KEYDT (based on Net Due Date) and 0P_KEYD3 (based on Clearing Date). My question is which one should I use if I want to base it on the specific key date variable from the variable screen? I need the specific Key Date variable technical name.
Thanks,
Al

Determining pricing condition currency according to billing date

Hi All;
Although this is a so simple scenario, i couldn't get any succesful reply in the forum.
Let me explain this by an example:
Sales Order TA
Material X = 10 EUR (Pricing Currency is EUR)
Pricing date: 23.10.2009 (1 EUR= 2 USD)
Document Currency:USD
Billing Document F2:
Billing date: 25.10.2009 (1 EUR=3 USD )
i want to calculate pricing condition currency according to billing date.
Total Price must be : 10X3=30 USD and of course pricing date must be: 23.10.2009
how could we achieve this?
before your reply, please consider my advices:
1.i don't want use pricing type "B" in VTFL. "G" is a preferable one.
2.in my VTFL configuration Pricing Exchange Rate Type is "C Exchange rate determination according to billing date"
3..OSS Note 92613 serves a simple solution. But i couldn't apply this note. I changed my routine according to this note, but it has no effect. Is there anyone who used this note succesfully?
4.someone said that it is possible to achieve this scenario by using some user exits, if this is correct, could you please say user exit's name?
thanks Gurus..
Edited by: streptomagma1 on Oct 26, 2009 8:43 AM

Pricing date: 23.10.2009 (1 EUR= 2 USD)
Billing date: 25.10.2009 (1 EUR=3 USD )
Do you mean to say that on ob08, different exchange rates were maintained on 23-10-09 and 25-10-09 ??
thanks

When saving sales order Error determining local currency: ER type 'M' date

Hi experts
we have created new sales area for intercompany billing process. we are doing testing for this.
Update was terminated
after saviing sales order express document update was terminated received from author
sales order Error Info... M2 802: Error determining local currency: ER type 'M' date 02.08.2011.
i need your input
thanks

Dear Manoj Verma,
Check the pricing date of the sales order.
Check the valid from date for the currency types/exchange rate type M in OB08
Now check whether the pricing date in sales order is before the valid from date in OB08.
If so , make the valid from date in OB08 as the pricing date in sales order in OB08 and then save.
Thanks & Regards,

i am Unable to trace this
any help plzzz
Anil

Hi,
since Quantity(units PC??) can not be in decimals,Bex will round off 1.5 to 2 in bex report.
Use NODIM function i.e. NODIM(Qty) instead of Quantity.
NODIM function is available under data functions of Formula builder.
From context menu fo KF structure>new formula>NODIM(Qty).
or
try by setting Decimal places to 2 or 3 in KF properties in Bex Query.
hope this helps.

Currency translation on future dates in SAP BW-BEX

Hello All We have a requirement where in user needs to do a currency translation at run time for data in future periods. For example : Savings data on a purchase order .Total savings for PO is $100,000.00 in year/month 2014/008 . We have a from and to date based on which the savings is equally distributed for each month. From 008/2014 to 008/2015. So each month savings in this case is $8333.33. This data is stored in cubes. Currency translation is based on data in TCURR and TCURX tables . We do not have future currency rates in these tables. Table is up to date only as of today . Therefore the question arises WHAT RATE WILL BEX USE TO CALCULATE DATA IN FUTURE PERIODS? (It is doing the conversion from USD to CAD - but there is no idea what rate it is using? The currency translation variable is based on 0calmonth. Please help me understand what are the default settings for currency translations in this case ? Thank your your help. Sainath Kumar

Hello Yasemin Thank you for your answer, we too think that could be the case. But is there any documentation confirming the same. Also in this case the future values will keep changing based on the availability of the data in TCURR table. Thus the report values will not be constant.Technically it makes no sense to convert rate today for a value in future. I am looking for a concrete answer from SAP saying that this is what the Bex query will do in case the future rates are not present. This will give the business a base to work with .

Currency Conversion on Piticular date

Dear All,
               I have a requirement where in I have to convert the Purchase Document Currency into USD on PO Creation Date.
I did the Currency Conversion in the BEX by creating a currency translation type using the tcode RSCUR. Following are the   settings I have Used for Conversion
1. Exchange rate type M
2 target currency         USD.
3 Time reference          Current Date.
Problem is the values are not getting converted to USD on PO Creation date.
Moreover I wanted the records whose values are more than 50,000 USD.
Question.
How to convert the currency from one to another on a Particular date.
Date for each record is different from one another as stated above.
Help me out in this case.
Thank You All
Regards
Mahesh

Dear Raj,
Thank you for the reply.
Iam using BI 7 and the tcode rrc1 is obselete in this version.
So I went to the new tcode rscur and created the currency translation type with the settings below.
1. Exchange rate type M
2 Target currency USD.
3 Time reference Current Date.
Used this translation key in the Key figure properties for currency translation.
I went to the source system and on context menu I transferred global settings.
Do I need to maintain currency keys and exchange rates manually even after transferring global settings?
I have set in the time reference the PO creation date
as Special Info Object. Will this work?
Please let me know.

Mahesh

BEX currency translation

Hi Experts,
In the BEX Anlyzer, generally I am getting two options in the submenu of Currency translation i.e a) By Target currency b) By Database currency
But, In any particular query I am getting four options : a) By Target currency from database currency b) By target currency using definition currency c) By database currency d) As defined in Query
My Q's is where can be defined these options in BEX to get four options instead of two?
Any useful answer will be rewarded with suitable points.
Thanks in advance!

Dear Stefania,
I think it might have taken 'nearest' date available.. can you verify with nearest exchange rate avaialble..

BEX Currency conversion created by the business

Hello,
I need to convert from USD to other currencies defined by the users in R/3. So the business figures the exchange rate in R/3 and I need to take that value and use it for converting the date in BEx. Any help? This is a very urgent requirement so anything would be great.

Hi,
You can set up currency converison in the bex query by right clicking the KF and choosing the currency conversion type and a fixed currency to convert to, or providing a variable where users can decide the currency they want.
To get the rates into BW you can schedule a job (RSIMPCURR) with daily frequency.

How Bex Flag effects SID, MAster Data and ODS data tables?

Hi every one,
I do understand how the Bex flag setting works in relation to reporting like y we set the flag or y we dont set the flag when we do reporting or not on ODS.. My question here is, i dont understand, how the SID tables or the master data tables or ODS tables get effected with this flag. Can some one explain me what kind of changes in the tables takes place with this flag setting and how it is used in the reporting.. How this thing is different with respect to Cube reporting process.. I do understand that ODS doesnt have Dimensions.. so i am just looking for conceptual clarification and any forum links related to clarifying this process at table level which i am looking for... ANy help will be highly appreciated in SDN way..
regards,
kishore

A typical dimension table looks like this
DIMID
SID_0COUNTRY
SID_0EMPLGROUP
SID_0EMPLOYEE
SID_0EMPLSGROUP
SID_0JOB
SID_0PAYRL_AREA
SID_0HRPOSITION
SID_ZWKCONT
SID_0COUNTRY_ID
The Fact tables contain a Dim ID (excpet for line item dims), which is used to join to the Dim table. The Dim table contains SIDs for the chars values in that Dim. The Dim table is then joined to the SID table, which is then joined to the attribute table.
For ODS - the /BI0/S***** SID tables have indexes on both the SID and the chars actual value. ODS queries will join to the SID table using the actual char value.
Here's the SQL for a typical ODS query that you can see how the ODS table joins to the SID tables:
SELECT

Calculating local currency based on document date in goods receipt

We have a requirement in Poland that the local currency PLN should be calculated based on the document date when doing goods receipt, and not standard SAP posting date. I can only find note 619330 according to this requirement, but this note requires use of material ledger which we are not using. We have implemented note 574583 for the same requirement in transaction MIRO.
Since there are no notes from SAP according to the requirement in transaction MIGO, are there any enhancements available for using the document date instead for posting date when calculating local currency?

EBS currency translation not "posting date"

Hello,
We implemented EBS ealier this year. The currency translation date on the FF_5 postings is taking the "document date" and not the "posting date" when determining which currency exchange rate to use. This is only an issue for a couple days at month end when the document date is in the current month, but the posting date is in the prior month.
What do we need to do to change the currency selection back to "posting date". I have never seen SAP use anything but posting date. I have tried reviewing all the configuration of doc type and other set up during EBS implementation and cannot see how we have triggered this date.
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
Morgan

I neglected to mention that we are calling this currency translation through a WAD button using the SET_CURRENCY_TRANSLATION command. I did do a test by applying the currency conversion within query key figure. This seems to work. So it appears the issue is with how the WAD is processing the variable, not the query. When I display the variable in a drop down item within the WAD it does have the default value that I have assigned in user exit.

How to create an Input Ready Query in Bex Excel with no transact data

Hi
We created a query where we want the user to put in NEW LINES. This query has in general no data when user starts planning.
We have 2 front-ends for this, Bex Web and Excel. Both shows initial 'no data available
BexWeb': Implementing the command set_data_entry_mode we get all the relevant columns for the input
Excel: Command set_data_entry_mode or set_input_mode does not allow the users to insert new lines. Still error message pops up 'no data available'
Do you have a solution for that ?
Regards,
Thomas

Hi Gregor,
In the note 1149346 that you have mentioned, it says -
You must start the input-ready query in change mode.
BEx Analyzer: In the properties of the analysis grid, the switch
"Suppress new rows" must not be set. Furthermore,
the switch "Allow entry of plant values"
must be set in the local query properties.
I have not seen this setting Allow entry of plant values in a query - can you tell what is refers to?
