Currency Conversion happend Record wise or on Aggregated Level

Hi ,
Suppose we've currency converison applied on 0CALMONTH.
And suppose we've 5 records for a CALMONTH december. In the Report, we do not ahve Document No as part of rows, so in that case data for a CALMONTH will be aggregated.
So, in that case, whether the Currency Conversion happens on each record and then does the aggregation OR it will first do the aggregation for teh CALMONTH and then does the CURRENCY CONVERSION ?
Thanks & regards,
Jomy

Hi,
You may try to put 0CALMONTH in rows and KFs of Amount in original currency as well as Converted amount into Columns.
First observe Total of converted amount by expanding to 0CALMONTH in rows then remove the characteristics 0CALMONTH from rows and then see Total of converted amount.
If there is no difference it means that our understanding for currency conversion is correct.
Hope that helps.

Inputs on Currency Conversion

Hi Experts,
I need some help in the Currency conversion variable that I am using in my report.
I have few caluculated key figures that are caluculated on the basis of difference between current date and the Net Due date. Currency conversion is used in these variables.
I also have few Restricted keyfigures that are restricted on the Fiscal Period. Same currency conversion variables are used in these key figures also. The currency conversion variable is at a Fiscal period level.
However, the currency conversion is not happening on the Caluculated keyfigures but it works for Restricted keyfigures.
Please provide your valuable inputs.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Please give us some more information on the calculated key figure. How is it defined? I assume the calculations is based on amounts and not on dates as you've written?
Best regards,
Christoffer Owe

Question on aggregation level "%" (percent) in aggregate definition

Hello,
I would like to find out all the aggregates that have at least one navigation attribute of a specific characteristic (let's say 0CUSTOMER) in their definition. The idea behind that is to find out which aggregates are potentially affected in a change run by a master data change for the 0CUSTOMER characteristic.
Well, I looked in table RSDDAGGRCOMP for entries that met the selection criteria {OBJVERS = 'A'; IOBJNM = '0CUSTOMER_*'}
For all navigation attributes of 0CUSTOMER - except for those that can actually be seen in the aggregate definition screen (launched via "Maintain Aggregates") - there are records that have as aggregation level (field AGGRST) '%'. What does this aggregation level mean and why is it in that table? That field description ("SAP-internal use only (technical:facts)") doesn't really bring me forward.
An aggregate, that only contains '%' as aggregation level in RSDDAGGRCOMP for navigation attributes of char 0CUSTOMER is not affected by a change run regarding the master data change of 0CUSTOMER attributes, is that right?
Thanks to any replies in advance.

Philipp

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.
Regards,
Mahesh

Currency conversion error in SAP HANA

Hi,
I am new to SAP HANA and learning to create information views in HANA studio (SAP HANA SP6 on Cloudshare, HANA studio 1.0.68). I am trying to create a simple analytic view (on purchaseOrderItem table in SAP_HANA_EPM_DEMO sample database) to have GrossAmount converted to EUR.
I added a calculated column as follows:
When i click on "OK", i get error -
The check box “Calculate before aggregation” has been unchecked, because the definition of the calculated column contains measures with currency conversion, restricted measures or operands with input parameters. For such a calculated column the calculation is always done after the aggregation."
and checkbox "calculate before aggregation" get unchecked. See screenshot below:
Please suggest what could be reason? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Amit

Hi Amit,
If you uncheck the "Calculate before aggregation" checkbox and activate the view, you will see in the generated log that a Calc scenario is created. (a view with /olap wrapper). Due to the calc scenario, the aggregation is defined as the default behavior for the KFs and hence the calculation cannot be done before aggregation.
By the way, I did not understand why do you need calculate before aggregation for a KF which is just a copy of another KF. If you need Gross amount in Local currency and EUR, then just perform the currency conversion without "Calculate before aggregation" checkbox. It will work.

Ravi

Credit memo request with currency conversion to EURO

I have a requirement in which i need to create a Credit Memo Request for the newly created sales organisation using the old billing document number created for old sales organisation.New sales org will have its currency changed to EURO.I referred to a FM named 'Pricing' where the currency conversion is done.
The requirement is to get the current price in EURO from the price list instead of currency conversion to EUR.The current price has to be extracted from new pricelist.
Your inputs in this regard is highly appreciated.

HI
    Am not on SAP system now, so will try to give you
info with what i can recollect.
   You can use FM: SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CREATE for creating
Credit Memo Request. Note that reference document and
reference type should be passed for identifying the
reference document as invoice. Please consider these as
initial inputs to explore on the same. Regarding the
pricing, it can be configured either at order type or
copy control to carry out new pricing so it can take
directly from condition records.
    Hope the above info can help you in exploring on the same.
Kind Regards

it got saved succesfully but wen i try to include this in the query its not visible there . can anyone let me know why this problem is coming
help will be appreciated .
i also included rate and date in the query still not visible

Hi,
Create Currency conversion type using Trans: RRC1.
1.Specify your Exchange rate type.
2.Dynamic Exchange rate type
3.Source curency from data rec.
4.Fixed currency say USD.
5.Select Variable Time reference "Start Month" and Special Info Object - 0calmonth
Secondly In the key figure field to be converted in the query,   select properties - select the currency conversion key name .

CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY currency conversion errors in Delta mode

Hello,
I have been working with SAP via customer messages for a month now with no resolution. As many of you have experienced, the SAP Level 1 support is pretty useless so I would like to check here to see if I can get some help.
I found a thread where another user has had the exact same problem as I have.
Problem: Exchange rate in Update rules with DELTA mode
However, there was no answer given to him. So, if anyone can help, I appreciate it. Here's the problem:
When a record comes through 2LIS_13_VDITM (for example), it had a document currency of EUR, a local currency of PLN and a statistical currency of USD. The first time the record comes through, it comes through just fine. The exchange rate from EUR to PLN is 3.533. The statistical currency value is calculated by taking the document currency value and multiplying it by the exchange rate from EUR to PLN to get the local currency. Then, this local currency is converted to USD by multiplying itself by the PLN to USD exchange rate of 1.519.
These are the exchange rates that are coming through as key figures on the transaction data. The problem is when a delta occurs. The data goes into the ODS and then once the update rules to the cube get it, the signs are backwards on the exchange rates. This makes sense so that the exchange rate key figures will cancel themselves out, but the SAP code says to calculate the local currency, it must first take the document currency and divide by the exchange rate. It should still be multiplying because the exchange rate from EUR to PLN is still 3.533. The negative on the key figure that is being zeroed out tells the code to divide though.
You cannot simply set the reversal indicator because the values that do come through ok would then be erraneous as the previous poster who had the same issue encountered. This is really causing some bad data for us. This is SAP delivered code. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brent

Bex to Business Objects - Currency Conversion error in Webi

Hello,
I am attempting to transfer a Bex 7 key figure currency conversion to a Business Objects filter in a Universe for display in a Webi report. The version of Business Objects XI 3.1 SP2. The Bex Conversion Type is based off Calendar Month, and the Target Currency variable is a selection prompt. The filter is passed to the universe and prompts when the report is ran in Webi, but an error occurs if the currency is populated. For instance, if I populate the filter in Webi with 'USD', the following error occurs: The MDS query SELECT "....." failed to execute with the error Value 'USD' FOR variable "Currency" is invalid (WIS 10901).
I'm not sure if the currency conversion information is being properly transferred and translated to Business Objects. Does anyone have any insight on this issue?
Thank you,
Brock

I was able to modify the dimension for the filter to retrieve the correct object (Ex. USD), but there are multiple incorrect selections for USD and other currency types. For instance, when I type in USD i get 5 different options, and the one with the description 'American Dollar' is the correct one. Why is Webi displaying all these different options? When I display the options for currency in Bex only one 'USD' is shown in the list. Here is my filter condition for currency type in the Universe:
<OPTIONAL><FILTER KEY="[SELCUR]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Select Currency','A','Organization\Cur Key',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER></OPTIONAL>
Cur Key is my customized hidden dimension
Thank you

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,
hari

Currency Conversion not working

Hi All,
Currency conversion is failing with error message as below.
SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search table error: [2620] executor: plan operation failed;currency/unit conversion error,Conversion( "AMOUNT" ), row 0: could not determine valid conversion rate for value(s) 3750 from unit 'USD' to unit 'INR' on date 2013-11-15 00:00:00.0000000
For currency conversion, I've done
Assign Client for currency conversion.
Assign Schema which holds all TCUR* tables and set the same as default schema for the model in Semantics section.
In TCURR table, I've below set of records for USD to INR conversion, exchange type used in Currency Conversion is 'M'.
I tried different exchange rates and converting to different currencies. Target currency is fed by Input Parameter which is defined of Semantic Type - Currency.
Even conversion fails for fixed target currency.
Am I missing something? Please provide your inputs.
Regards,
Chandra.

Hi Chandra,
Can you share the screen of your calculated measure showing the currency conversion.
Can you check with date 30.11.2011 and see if the conversion is taking place? Assuming that client and schema details are fine.

Currency Conversion Problem

Hi frndz,
I am facing a problem with the currency conversion.
In my Report i have used two keyfgures.
One is directly calculating the values from R/3 side and converting into EURO.
the other one is calculating through update rule.
These teo keyfigures should have the same value.
In this update rule i have used one function module "Convert into foreign currency".
This function module is calculating the value correct for all other currency only in Korean(KRW)currency i am getting probelm.
Like R/3 side value converting in EURO in coming as
507.35
and through function module value is coming as 50,736.00.
Please if any one having this problem or any one could suggest some solution then it would be great help.
I have also tried the solution of deleting the values from SPRO but still the problem is there.
Thanks in advance

Revab,
The admin may delete the record for KRW from TCURX table.
BUT, it may affect the other applications. It should be carefully considered.
Though, after deletion end users may check if theirs applications results with regard to KRW have been changed.
If yes, then the record in TCURX may be added again.
If not, then it might be a solution. Though, not recommended.
Best regards,
Eugene
