Convert Currency to regular number

I have a value that is in the currency format, say $161. I want to divide that by a constant(140 in this case) which will give me 1.15. I want to then display that 1.15 as a duration in hours. But Numbers gives me an error because the 1.15 is in currency format. I have to strip the 1.15 of it's currency designation. The only way I have been able to that is to create a seperate table that divides the currency value by 140, then reference that in duration column.
I need something like STRIPCURRENCY.
Seems like I am missing something simple.

Jeez, I'm slapping myself on the head this morning. I woke up with a better idea.
It's even easier than that. Just change the format of the cell where you did the division. It will automatically be a currency, change it to a number. No need for any "strip currency" function.
One pitfall with VALUE is that it rounds to whatever is displayed on the screen. It's really a text function, not a number function so you have to be careful. I tried a few other ways to strip the currency. One that worked within the DURATION function is MAX.
B2 = $161.00345 but is displayed as $161.00 in the cell
C2 = 135
D2 = B2/C2 formated as a number
E2 = DURATION(,,D2) = 1h 11m 33s 425ms
E3 = DURATION(,,MAX(B2)/C2) = 1h 11m 33s 425ms
E4 = DURATION(,,VALUE(B2)/C2) = 1h 11m 33s 333ms -- not quite right

Not able to convert string attribute to number and date please help me out

not able to convert string attribute to number and date attribute. While using string to date conversion it shows result as failure.As I am reading from a text file. please help me out

Hi,
You need to provide an example value that's failing and the date formats in the reference data you're using. It's more than likely you don't have the correct format in your ref data.

Error Converting Currency -- Load from SAP ECC / R/3 to BW / BI

Hi,
I have a custom extractor pulling data from ECC.
However, I am getting the following error.
'Error Converting Currency from USD4 to on 8/27/2008'
RSA3 works fine. PSA load fails and the above message can be seen in the application log in ECC.
Any ideas?
Points will be assigned.
Thanks,
Edited by: Rajen SAP BI on Aug 29, 2008 2:23 AM

I believe in the transfer rule info object 0currency should be assigned with field from transfer structure which contains Currency . Once the assignment is done , delete data from info cube and reload the data and this time it should give
corresponding currency along with Amount.
Once you are able to see the currencies along with amount second step would be to create Currency translation ( RRC1 ) Put description ( Fixed Currency USD )
Tab page exchange rate : Rate type M
Source currency : From Data record
Target currency : Fixed ( USD )
Time ref. Fixed time ref. (Current datE) ( varies per scenario )
Save it.
Or
Use this function module for converting currency from one format to another format...

That rather depends on what sort of number you want.
You can probably get what you want by a combination of to_char and to_number.

Function module to convert currency to USD

Hi All,
I need the function module to convert the currency to USD and the mandatory fields to be passed to the function module.
Thanks & Regards
Suresh

hi,
Working With LSMW:
Use TCODE LSMW
Objects of LSMW:
Project ID with max of 10 char to Name the data transfer project.
Subproject Used as further structuring attribute.
Object ID with max of 10 Characters, to name the Business object .
Project can have multiple sub projects and subprojects can have multiple objects.
Project documentation displays any documentation maintained for individual pop ups and processing steps
User Guide: Clicking on Enter leads to interactive user guide which displays the Project name, sub project name and object to be created.
Object type and import techniques:
Standard Batch / Direct input.
Batch Input Recording
o If no standard programs available
o To reduce number of target fields.
o Only for fixed screen sequence.
BAPI
IDOC
o Settings and preparations needed for each project
Preparations for IDOC inbound processing:
Choose settings -> IDOC inbound processing in LSMW
Set up File port for file transfer, create port using WE21.
Additionally set up RFC port for submitting data packages directly to function module IDoc_Inbound_Asynchronous, without creating a file during data conversion.
Setup partner type (SAP recommended US) using WE44.
Maintain partner number using WE20.
Activate IDOC inbound processing.
Verify workflow customizing.
Steps in creating LSMW Project:
1) Maintain attributes choose the import method.
2)Maintain source structure/s with or without hierarchical relations. (Header, Detail)
3) Maintain source fields for the source structures. Possible field types C,N,X, date, amount and packed filed with decimal places.
Fields can be maintained individually or in table form or copy from other sources using upload from a text file
4) Maintain relationship between source and target structures.
5) Maintain Field mapping and conversion rules
For each Target field the following information is displayed:
o Field description
o Assigned source fields (if any)
o Rule type (fixed value, translation etc.)
o Coding.
o Some fields are preset by the system & are marked with Default setting.
6) Maintain Fixed values, translations, user defined routines Here reusable rules can be processed like assigning fixed values, translation definition etc.
6) Specify Files
o Legacy data location on PC / application server
o File for read data ( extension .lsm.read)
o File for converted data (extension .lsm.conv)
7) Assign Files to defined source structures
8) Read data Can process all the data or part of data by specifying from / to transaction numbers.
9) Display read data To verify the input data being read
10) Convert Data Data conversion happens here, if data conversion program is not up to date, it gets regenerated automatically.
11) Display converted data To verify the converted data
Import Data Based on the object type selected
Standard Batch input or Recording
o Generate Batch input session
o Run Batch input session
Standard Direct input session
o Direct input program or direct input transaction is called
BAPI / IDOC Technique:
IDOC creation
o Information packages from the converted data are stored on R/3 Database.
o system assigns a number to every IDOC.
o The file of converted data is deleted.
IDOC processing
o IDOCS created are posted to the corresponding application program.
o Application program checks data and posts in the application database.
Finally Transport LSMW Projects:
R/3 Transport system
o Extras ->Create change request
o Change request can be exported/imported using CTS
Export Project
o Select / Deselect part / entire project & export to another R/3 system
Import Project
o Exported mapping / rules can be imported through PC file
o Existing Project data gets overwritten
o Prevent overwriting by using
Import under different name

Function Module to convert currency

Hi all,
I need to convert all currency to 'EURO'.Could you please anybody help me in this regard.whather is there any function module?.
Regards.
Reddy Prasad.

HI,
Please try this .
FWOS_CURRENCY_DECIMALS_READ :All the currency amounts are stored in SAP tables as CURR(n,2) (the same as DEC(n,2)). So before any arithmetic operation value should be adjusted using the real decimals number for the given currency (stored in TCURX).
Conversion Rates by type and date are stored in TCURR (+factors). Standard type is M. Date is stored in inverted format (the most recent date has the numerically smallest value). ABAP code to convert dates:
convert date p_date into inverted-date w_date.
convert inverted-date w_date into date p_date.
CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY :the only difference between CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY and CONVERT_TO_FOREIGN_CURRENCY seems to be the following:
Foreign currency is TCURR-FCURR (From Currency)
Local Currency is TCURR-TCURR (To Currency)
So result will be slightly different for the both functions (two rates stored in the TCURR: e.g. JPY->USD rate is 0.00880, USD->JPY rate is 122.00000). Better to use CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY, because multiplication is more exact operation than division.
CONVERT_TO_FOREIGN_CURRENCY :Both conversion functions can return also selected rate and factors
reward all helpfull answers,
regards .

CONVERTING CURRENCY RATE

Hi,
I have a bank report in which transaction is carried out through out the world i.e in different currency
but in the report they want to see the amount of any foreign currency in local currency ( BAD )
i've tried making formula by putting 'IF' & 'THAN' logic for example i want to convert USD in BAD
=If([L01 Currency])="US Dollar"Then([Total Debit Postings]*2.75)
this formula is fine and working ,
but this is for one specific currency
What i want is what ever currency it is showing in the report it should change automatically into local currency (BAD)
like here we are having N number of currencies which depends on the transaction carried out so is there any converter or formula so that it should change the currency automatically.....??
Thank you,

Hi Sunil,
The formula which you have given is fine but it do not come up with the requirement
like every currency have a different exchange rate...
i want all the currencies to be transformed into Bahrain Dinar..
so like USD has a different exchange rate, SAR have a different exchange rate and so on....
i hope I am clear to you....
so any suggestions regarding this,
Thank you...

Decimal number converted into coma "," separated number --- how to resolve

Dear All
In our E-Business 11i (11.5.9), we are facing strange problem since few days, when ever user enter any number e.g. 145.098, it is converted as 145,098. It is weird problem, any resolutions for this............
cheers
Mehmood

Dear All
Thanks for all the inputs, we generated the SR as well, and we got the following response, we applied all that, and now we are not facing any issue.
==============
1. Check Profile Option "ICX: Numeric characters" if it is NULL, 10,000.00 or 10.000,00
Do not set the Profile Option ICX: Numeric Characters to 10.000,00 at the site lev
el.
Set the System Profile Option: ICX: Numeric Characters, at the site level to 10,000.00 and if any
user needs the different format of 10.000,00 then change it through the General Preferences link
which will set the profile option at user level to 10.000,00.
2. Confirm in File "Init.ora". If Parameter "NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS" is equals value:
NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = ",."
3. Set the FND profile CURRENCY:THOUSAND_SEPARATOR to TRUE
4. Set the NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=".," in the $APPL_TOP/<SID>.env
5. Bounce the Apache Server for any setup changes to take effect including profile options.
