Currency conversion based on budget rate

Hi All,
I want to do the currency translation from GBP to EUR,EUR to USD and GBP to USD.there is no table maintained in the BW system.Currency conversion should be based on budget values and they are asked me to do on reporting level.I have gone thru the documents and blogs but not able to follow them.Could you pls share any one knowledge and step by step process.
Thanks

Use RSCUR transaction to create currency translation type.
Here under "Time Ref" tab use "Variable Time Ref" and special infoobject.
You should be able to choose Posting period or posting date here.
Now in query designer maintain the currency conversion based on this currency translation type.
Hope this helps.

Currency Conversion---- Based on Posting period

Hi All,
I am creating a report based on FIAA .
Query selection screen will contain COMPANY CODE , and the POSTING PERIOD
suppose we enter company code as 2100 and posting period from 001.2007 to 012.2007.
I need to translate all the balance sheet items are translate with the closing rate (M) for the current period , i.e. the "to period in the report " here 012.2007.
The To period is dynamic and i need to select the currency conversion rate dynamically based on the To period entered in the selection screen of query.so, Can any one give the clues to achieve this. Your help is appriciated.
Thanks & Regards

Currency Conversion based on condition in BW

Hello,
I have gone through the cople weblogs/links/doc whatever information I found on currency conversion. However I am not able to figure out what could be done in below scenario. Please guide.
Scenario -->
I have STATUS and POSTING_DATE in my Cube. Key Figure in this cube is AMOUNT. Transactions are created in source system in local currency. When data is extracted to BW, I get AMOUNT in local currency and with right clicking on this column in Bex, I can convert it in Fix Target currency or I can permanently create one new column in my report which will always shows fixed target currency for AMOUNT. So far so good.
Now the problem is I wanted to use the conversison rate maintained in TCURR table based on some condition.
Ex: IF STATUS=CLOSED, then use Conversion rate as of POSTING_DATE,
ELSE, use current date exchange rate.
Standard currency conversion always use curent date for calculating exchange rate, but can I use conversion rate as of POSTING_DATE?
Please advice.
Regards
Pankaj

Thanks everyone for reply. I really apprecite your help.
I tried the suggested FM "CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY", just have one more clarification.
I debuged this FM and saw that Date which we are passing get's inverted as this is how date is maintained in TCURR table. So far so good. But TCURR table normally get's loaded once a month (say at the start/end of month) and so we will have only one date there. However input date which I am passing into thi FM can be any date (as this is the date maintained at transaction level). How do you handle this case?
Please advice.

Foreign currency conversion not picking up rate or time period

I am running the standard FX conversion (standard stored procedure - fxtrans.lgx) on SAP BPC MS version 7.5 , but everytime I run the package, even though I choose a particular day, it seems to run for multiple time periods.
In the formula log I get more than 50 of the following:
10000400 - 4 rows calculated
10000400 - 0 rows updated
10000400 is the TIMEID for my currency conversion.
Also, when I look at the result, even though I have entered 1 as my conversion fator I get a multiple of 18. I tried to change the conversion factor, but no matter what I do for no matter what entity and no matter what LC I always end up with a multiple of 18.
Any ideas for me?
Thanks

Hi,
This sounds strange. Can you post your script logic file and a small extract from your time dimension please?

Currency conversion to month end rate

Dear Gurus,
I need to store local currency amount in the cube as group currency amount . The logic of the calculation
local currency amount * month end rate
In other word the local currency amount need to be converted to group currency amount using the month end rate.
Can anyone teach me how to do this
Your help highly appreciated
Thank you
BR

Hi Sarvanan,
You can write a routine to calculate this. But you will need some reference date field, like posting date for this.
In your start routine, get data from table TCURR inside ITAB for monthend forecast rate.
In routine, get corresponding rate by looking local currency and group currency from TCURR internal table. Multiply this rate with local currency amount to get desired result.
Please revert if you need more help on ABAP code to be written.

Problem in SAP Query with currency conversion based on table TCURX

Hi All,
I have an infoset where tables A903 and KONP are joined . Query is displaying the KONP-KBTER values with currency as stored in the database table .My requirement is to show the KBETR value as per decimals stored in TCURX table for that currency .
For Example If KONP-KBETR = 51.29 JPY , It sholuld display as 5129 as Decimal places for JPY is 0.
There is FM CURRENCY_AMOUNT_SAP_TO_DISPLAY Which gives the equvivalent display value to the databse value value.But it is giving dump because of type conflict with
KONP-KBETR .
Can any body help me how can i solve the problem in My Query ? .Pls any small idea taht may help greatly also warmly welcome .
Thx,

Hi Sriram ,
But how can i use it in Queries . I mean should I go for a additional filed in infoset and then passing the converted value to the the that additional field .
Thx ,

APO DP: currency conversion with CURR_CONV_FAC

Dear DP experts,
we have currently a problem that is described in a similar thread, however the solution is not yet clear.
Demand planning: Change currency in unit column with a macro function?
We are using the currency conversion: on planning book, top left corner - right mouse button - UoM - Set - In currency field put USD. (*) The planning area currency is RUB. To work with USD, the program takes the currency exchange rate of today. However we need to use the currency exchange rate that is maintained in SPRO on a monthly basis.
We were advised by SAP that it is a program limitation and there is a macros CURR_CONV_FAC to make currency conversion based on periods.
As we want to keep the conversion functionality as is (*), did anyone try to implement the conversion in such a way and could help us with advice?
For example , we think that this macros
1) has to be DEFAULT,
2) has to find the planning area currency
3) has to read the new currency from the UoM column
4) has to recognize that the currency change event has to happen.
5) has to be allways called after setting the new currency.
There are some doubts that this can work, can anyone advise?
Best regards
Vladimir Ermoshin

Hi BPC Gurus,
I too have the same issue.
We are in the process of upgrading BPC7.5NW to BPC10.0 NW.
1) I am validating the below Currency Conversion script in BPC10.0:-

CURRENCY = %RPTCURR_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
OTHER = [ENTITY = %COMPANY_SET%]
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
The data manager package runs w/o any errors, but log says:-

3) Model is of consolidation type with dummy(no data) Ownership model.
4) Below is screen shot of my Currency Translation rules post upgrade in BPC10.0NW.
Any clue why currency conversion is not picking any records??

Currency Conversion - Rate Type Selection

I have a BEx query that displays key figure in 3 columns inside a structure, using variable rate types (one rate type per column). We have rate types P, P1, and P2 loaded into currency tables.
I run this query with the following selection criteria:
Column 1 -- Key Figure in Local Currency (BRL)
Column 2 -- Key Figure converted from BRL to EUR using rate type P
Column 3 -- Key Figure converted from BRL to EUR using rate type P2
For some reason column 2 is converted using rate type P1, instead of rate type P, even though rate type P1 is not even part of the selection screen. Column 3 is converted correctly, using rate type P2. I enter the same time period for all 3 columns, and rate types P and P2 both exist for this time period.
Do you know what's going on here?
Thank you.
Nadia

Hi,
see if there is any currency conversuion type used in you report.
It can be checked in the properties of the key figures.
you can go to RRC3 to check which echange arte is used by this currency conversion.
Or if currency conversion is happening at the update rule then check if which is the exchange rate used there.
Once you have seen the exchange rate...go to t-code SPRO
SAP Netweavet->General Settings->Currencies->Enter Exchange rate .
here you cah check the latest exchange rate ...from currency to currency...and the values...based on settings of you currency conversion type it will chose the factor.
Thanks

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.

Currency Conversion for Exchange rate type "AS02"

Hi Experts,
I am gonna post the most challenging problem (regarding currency conversion) I ever faced in my 1 year of BW Carrier.Kindly provide a solution.
There are three types of currency to be used in the query for Key Figure 0NET_VALUE (so total 3 Key Figures to be created)
   1.Document currency (may be any currency)
   2.Local Currency (must be EURO)
   3.Global Currency (must be USD)
From Document currency to Local Currency(EURO) we are using Exchange rate Type "M" (in Conversion Type created in Trans RRC1) [There is no problem in this conversion]
Problem starts now--->
From Local Currency(EURO) to Global Currency(USD) we have to use Exchange rate type "AS02" (in conversion type to be created in RRC1)
but there is a Business requirement that currency rate should be as per the last day of the entered period;and this logic should work for the range of periods also.
Example :
we are executing query for the period 006/2006 (posting Period)
Last day of this period is 06/30/2006,
Currency rate would be as per 06/30/2006
And this currency rate should be same throughout the period 006/2006 in query
The example was for single period,but logic must be incorporated for the range of the periods.

Hi..
There is no corresponding source key figure in the InfoSource for the target key figureof the InfoCube.
a. A source key figure of the same type can be assigned to the target key figure
(for example, sales revenue instead of sales quantity revenue).
If the currencies of both of the key figures are the same, no currency
translation can take place.
If the currencies are different, a translation can take place either using a
currency translation type or by simply assigning a currency.
The following table provides an overview of possible combinations with different
currencies in the source and target key figures:
if Source key figure currency is fixed , Target key figure currency is variable then Currency translation (CT) No CT
if Source key figure currency is fixed , Target key figure currency is fixed then Currency translation (CT)   CT
if Source key figure currency is variable , Target key figure currency is fixed then Currency translation (CT)   CT
if Source key figure currency is variable , Target key figure currency is variable then Currency translation (CT) CT or assignment
b. If there is no corresponding source key figure of the same type, then you have
to fill the key figure for the data target from a routine.
If the target key figure has a fixed currency, no currency translation is
carried out. This means that if translation is required, you have to execute
it in the routine.
If the target key figure has a variable currency, you also have to assign
a variable source currency to the routine. Using the F4 help you can
select a currency from the variable currencies in the communication
structure. You have two options:
You can select a variable currency and assign it.
You select a currency translation type and a currency into which you
wish to translate (To currency).
The To currency is, by default, the target currency if it is included in the
communication structure.
Creating a Routine for Currency Translation:
If you want to translate currencies in the update even though the currency translation is not
available for one of the above reasons, you can create a routine. Choose Routine, set the
Unit Calculation in the Routine and choose Create Routine. In the routine editor you get
the additional return parameter UNIT, the value of which is used to determine the target
1. save the query and it under role
   see to it is in   : Restricted and calculated key figures --->   properties of k.f
2. exeute the query
3. the currency translation --> by target currency usd choose OK
conversion type : MEANTODAY Fixed target currency current date (MT)
4. Go back to the query definition by chossing chage query ( global definiton)
5. in the context menu for % share sales vouume of incoming orders, choose properties --> formula collision --> result form this formula choose OK
Note that -
your should alos set the currency translation in the properties for the two key figures sales voule EUR , choose properties ---> currency conversion key : fixed target currency , currrent date ( MT) --> target currency : American Dollar . choose   OK
<b>The translation key is a combination of different parameters that establish how the exchange rate for the translation is executed.
The parameters that determine the exchange rate are the source and the target currency, the exchange rate type and the time reference for the translation.</b>
The source currency is determined from the data record or dynamically from the master data of the specified InfoObject (currency attribute)
The target currency can either be fixed in the translation key or selected at the time of translation.
You can also use an InfoObject (currency attribute) to determine the target currency.
The exchange rate type distinguishes exchange rates that are valid in the same time frame next to each other, for example, the bid rate, ask rate or middle rate. The exchange rate types are stored and can be maintained in a central table (TCURV).
The time reference for the currency translation can be either fixed or variable
The fixed time reference can either be a fixed key date that is stored in the translation type, or be determined using the system date when executing the currency translation.
If the time reference is variable, then the point in time for the exchange rate determination comes from the value of a time characteristic (InfoObject). The reference can, for example, be the end or the start of a fiscal year or a calendar year, a period and a month or even to the exact day. It can also be determined using a customer-specific InfoObject (for example, trading day).
Currency translation in the BEx
When selecting a translation key with a fixed target currency     this currency will be added automatically to the query definition
Also, you can use translation keys selecting their target currency at the time of translation. These can be applied in two different ways:
Selection of a specific target currency in the query definition (1)
Entry by variable (2)
Dynamic translation keys require input from the InfoCube !
InfoObject value will be read during query execution
Examples:
dynamic time reference (p.eg. 0CALDAY)
      time characteristic
target currency determined by InfoObject (currency attribute)
     characteristic which contains currency in its attribute table
the corresponding InfoObject has to be part of the InfoCube
1.Define the currency attribute in the InfoObject maintenance
The currency attribute has to be a unit InfoObject of type currency
The unit InfoObject must be an attribute of the characteristic
The currency attribute should be filled in the master data table of the corresponding InfoObject (manual maintenance or upload via InfoSource)
2.Enter the InfoObject in the translation key maintenance
Only InfoObjects with a currency attribute can be used in translation keys (p.eg. 0COMP_CODE)
At the time of currency translation the value for the source currency / target currency is then derived for every record from the master data table of the specified InfoObject
All values for a query are translated ad hoc (after having executed the query) using a translation key
Depending on the translation key a fixed target currency will be used for translation or you will be able to select the target currency
The ad hoc currency translation offers only restricted functionality (selection of translation key and target currency) compared to the currency translation in the query definition
Do not forget to create your translation keys before starting your work in the Business Explorer Analyzer
Example:
You load the following record to your InfoCube:
Company Code:                1000
Amount in Source Currency:      500,-
Source Currency:                FRF
Target Currency:               ?
In the Update rules, you are now using a translation key which derives the target currency from the InfoObject 0COMP_CODE. During the Update Process the target currency will then be read for Company Code 1000 from the master date table of 0COMP_CODE.
With the currency translation in the Business Explorer, the source currency can currently only be determined from the data record.
Only translation keys with a fixed exchange rate type can be used in the BEx
Translation keys with a dynamic time reference (from an InfoObject) can only be used in the query definition. It is not possible to fill the InfoObject by a variable !
Translation keys getting their target currency from a currency attribute can only be selected in the query definition
When getting the dynamic reference from an InfoObject (p.eg. 0CALDAY) the currency translation will apply to each record read from the database. That means it will use the date in this record for the currency translation.
When using a variable you will restrict the output of your query to a certain amount of data. For example, you would translate all invoices of March 11 with the translation date March 11
This means, the requirement show me all invoices in my cube in group currency, conversion date: 14.07.2001 could not be solved by a variable input for 0CALDAY
I hope this would help...
with regards,

Fetch dollar to euro currency conversion rate from the interwebs ...

Hey guys,
this might sound like a dumb question to you, but is there a way
to fetch the dollar to euro currency conversion rate from let's say
yahoo finance into a single cell inside numbers 09?
Basically what want is, just a plain output in a number like:
0,7421 so that I can use it to convert various values.
I'm just sick of going to the website every day and copy paste the
value into my numbers file.
I'd really really appreciate it, if someone could help me.
I don't know anything about apple scripting, but I think this might
be the way to go?
Best, JK

Go to my idisk :

Error in Currency Conversion and calculated conversion rate is too big

When I am trying to execute the Query,I can see the result but I received below Warning messages.
Also I am not authorized to check the conversion rate using TCURR.
1) Calculated conversion rate 301.149,42529 is too big.
The exchange rate 301.149,42529 was calculated via the base currency USD.This produced a rate which exceeds the maximum allowed value of 9999.99999.
System response : The Processing can not be continued because the calculated rate cannot be used.
2) Error occurred during currency conversion.
You attempted to Convert the currency.The system cannot find the valid currency into which to convert the value.
The OLAP Processor cannot convert the currency.The drilldown is not changed.
3) No Exchange rate from TRY to EUR and date 13.11.2009 is found.
Please reply.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks fr the info. that u all hv given ..... I ran one program frm our side which will be updating the transfer exchange rates as u all have mentioned. But then , i am receiving the warnings.
Also,when i have checked the conversion rates,they r fine.
Please find the Below diagnosis ,which they hv given.
Diagnosis:
The exchange rate 301.149,42529- was calculated via the base currency USD. This produced a rate which exceeds the maximum allowed value of 9999.99999.
System Response:
The processing can not be continued because the calculated rate can not be used.
Procedure:
Check the conversion rate to the base currency USD and the exchange rate type E. If the rates are correct, you must agree different conversion factors for the currencies in question (e.g. 100:1 instead of 1:1), so that the resulting conversion rate does not exceed the value 9999.99999. Notification Number SG 119 .
Please solve this issue.Thanks in advance!

Currency conversion with the wrong exchange rate type

Hi,
I need a currency conversion in my bex query. I have defined a currency translation key with a assignment to the exchange rate type "M".
When I check the results in the query it works with exchange rate type "EURX".
Exchange rates are in the TCURR.
Can anyone help me.
Thanks in advance
Jürgen

Hello,
We just had the same issue, and in checking the Currencies: Translation Ratios in transaction OBBS, I noticed that the currency translation key in question was set up with an entry of "EURX" in the "Alt. ERT" column.
I copied the line and created a new entry with a "Valid From" date of the current month, but without the "EURX" Alt. ERT alternate and that seemed to solve it.
Anything entered with a date after the new Valid From date would use the manually entered exchange rate, while anything with a prior date continued to use the EURX rate.
It appears to me that the "Alt. ERT" functions more as an override than an alternate, so if you want the system to actually use the "M" rate, I believe you have to ensure there is nothing in the "Alt. ERT" column.
I hope this helps.

Currency Translation based on Last Day of the Acquistion month

Dear all,
Request to help me in understanding how we can calculate the currency translation rate as per the last day if the acquistion month..
For Example if the Acquistion date : 01/01/2008 (mm/dd/yyyy) the currency translation should happend based on the rate maintained as on 31/01/2008.
Thanks
Pavan Kumar Prakhya

First, you will need to convert the actual acquisition date to the end date of the Fiscal Period. This can be done by using two separate Function Modules. First, get the actual Fiscal Period by entering the date and Fiscal Year Variant into the DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT Function Module. Use the Fiscal Year and Fiscal Period from this and determine the end date of the Fiscal Period by using Function Module LAST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET with Fiscal Year, Fiscal Period and Fiscal Year Variant as your inputs.
For the conversion, use the Function Module CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY. The inputs for this would be the last date of the Fiscal Period, the amount to be converted, the from currency code, the to currency code, blank in rate, AS01 in type of rate and X in read TCURR. This assumes, however, that month-end rates (rate type = AS01) have been loaded into your source system and these rates have been transferred to your BW environment.
