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

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

FAH Default Conversion Rate Type

Hello all,
IN FAH you can assign the system source 'Default Conversion Rate Type' to the accounting attribute 'conversion rate type'. Great! But what rate type will it pick up, where do you set this default rate type?
thanks
Abe

Vamsi,
You are right. I tested and I got error 95357 'There is a missing system source value. Please inform your system administrator or support representative that: There are no values for the system source Default Conversion Rate Type used by Oracle Subledger Accounting.'
So that leaves me two choices: a custom source (not recommended for performance reasons) or an additional column in the transaction object which is a bit silly as it will always be populated with the same value. Any suggestions for a better approach are welcome.
thanks
Abe

Currency conversion with query selection mask and InfoObject 0Curtype

Hi,
question to following scenario:
in the data source is an column with the currency type. This currency type column contains values like
10 = company code currency
20 = account area currency
So for each data set in the table is an assignment of currency types.
In the cube is an InfoObject called 0Curtype (for currency types 10,20,30 ...).
In the BEx Query should a filter or selection be possible before the whole data is displayed.
The user can select in which currency he wants to display the data. When he selects the 10 the whole data is displayed in different currencies which are available because its local currency (Euro, Dollar etc.). By selecting 20 the whole data is displayed in Euro.
Does anybody knows how to achieve that? Is there any function module availabe which is provided by SAP and it is available for use?
Thank you in advance!!!

Hi There:
You have two options available.
One you can define currency conversion variable in transaction RSCUR. Then use this currency conversion variable at query run time using a formula Key figure and go to Conversions tab and select this variable. Then at query run time the query will convert your key figure from source currency type to target currency type. But this can significantly impact your query run time because the query will calculate this at query run time.
The second option is to use a standard SAP function module CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURR in the back end and store this key figure in the back end during data load. This way the query will run faster for you. The difference is significant in my case.
Good luck.
Let me know if you need more information.

Group Currency Exchange rate type.

Hi
We wanted to post a foreign currency document, with a specific Exchange rate, that is specified in the Document type.
Doument Currency is getting converted into Local Currency (Company code currency) based on the exchange rate type specifed in the Document type used for posting.
But, the Group Currency is getting converted from Document currency based on the Exchange rate type : "M" but based on the Exchange rate type specified in the Document type.
Is there any way, apart from specifying Exchange rate type in Parallel Currencies.
We wanted the conversion of Both Local (Company code) & Group currencies be converted based on the Exchange rate type specified in the document type, for some specific postings.
Following is our Scenario :
Co.Code Cur - EUR
Doc.Cur          GBP
Grp Cur           USD
Document type : XY -- Exchange rate type "1111" specified in the document type.
Now when a document is posted with Document type "XY" in Document Cur : GBP.
Both Local & Grp currency to be converted based on the Exchange rate type " 1111".
Thanks
Kalyan

Hello Kaylan,
I will try to explain the system behavior, regarding to the exchange
rate question, "M" is standard exchange rate type used in R/3 so it's
not possible to change this default setting. However you can assign the
exchange rate type to each FI document type at transaction OBA7. The
exchange rate type assigned here applies to both online/batch postings.
Therefore you can assign a different exchange rate type to the document
types, but not per company code. The exchange rate that you customize at
document type level is validfor the first local currency. However, for
parallel currencies, the system will always use the exchange rate type
defined in transaction OB22. Please, check your customizing there to
check your changes.
If you want to use exchange rate type B, for example, instead of M, in
customizing you have to give Alt Ex.Type as B against M. So that it will
take B rate whenever M is applicable. If you want this B rate to be
applicable for specific document types then you can do the same at
document type definition itself. Otherwise you can do the same at
payment program level/ Revaluation. These are the only places where
exchange type comes into picture.

Getting currency conversion rate

Hi,
I need to convert any non-USD currency amount to USD. I know that the rates are stored in the table TCURR. I want to know how do i get the today's currency rate from this table. Exchange rate type I'll be using is M.
Thanks,
Prasy

Hi,
For table TCURR, you can change the currency for the nearest date compared to current day.
But for using the FM: CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY,you can change the currency for the current day if you filled in the date below. You can have a try.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY'
EXPORTING
*   CLIENT                  = SY-MANDT
    *date                    = sy_datum*
    foreign_amount          = '1000'
    foreign_currency        = 'USD'
    local_currency          = 'EUR'
*   RATE                    = 0
*   TYPE_OF_RATE            = 'M'

Reg:Currency Conversion Rates

Hi All,
How can I get the history rate and Conversion rate for a particular currency for a particular date.
For example I have given INR as currency in my screen on a particular date(Hist Date). Then the rate of INR against USD will be the HISTORY RATE.
And if I change the currency to some other currency on some other date (CONV Date) then the rate of that currency against USD on that date will be the CONVERSION RATE.
So how can I calculate these.Do we have any function modules or any tables in which I can get the SAP Exchange rates, so that my issue gets resolved.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Khan.

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---- 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
Syam.

Edited by: syam reddy on Nov 24, 2008 10:19 PM

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.

Business Rule Currency Conversion and Carry Forward

Hello Guys,
I have a question related to the Business Rules Currency Conversion and Carry Forward
I configured the business rule "Currency Conversion" and I selected "Apply to Periodic". What this rules does with the flag selected is to get the value of the previous month converted and add the factor (Local Currency previos month - Local Currency Actual month) * Exchange Rate of Current Month
For Example: USD previos month +
This rule applies perfectly from FEB to DEC but if I run it for January, it does not consider the value of USD previos month and LC previous month for calculations so the result I get is:
(and of course it´s because it only applies to periodic)
I need to include into my results this amounts and factor so the question is: Is not a flag I can activate to force the system to act as it does for FEB to DEC periodic ??
I also set up the Business Rule "Carry Forward" so with this rule Im able to bring values converted in USD from DEC to JAN for example from a Data Source Input, but the problem is that it erase any other value I have in other Data Source members and I need to keep that info.
Hope you can come with a suggestion.
Im working with SAP BPC NW 7.5 SP08

Hello guys,
Yes, my fiscal year is from JAN to DEC and Im using a YTD app,
As you mentioned for P&L accounts the rule works fine; but we want to carry forward LEQ accounts. Is there a way to use or configure the currency conversion rule with the flag "Apply to Periodic" to carry forward LEQ accounts for the next following year?
Here is how we configured our Carry Forward Business Rule
Source and Destionation account = 4111
Source and destionation Flow= FCLO
Reverse Sign= False
Data Source Type= ALL
Same Period= False
Apply to Periodic=False

No daily exchange rate defined for rate type Corporate

We are entering a transaction in AR for currency XDR (Nav Path in Receivables: Transactions->Transactions; Form Name: ARXTWMAI, FOrm Version: 11.0.62).
The currency XDR is supposed to be IATA Rate related and has nothing to do with Corporate Exchange Rate (i.e. Bank rate). We have IATA Rate and Corporate conversion rate types (Nav Path in Receivables: Setup->Financials->Currencies->Rates->Conversion Type).
While entering the transaction, we get this message:
"FRM-40735: ON-INSERT trigger raised unhanled exception ORA-20000.
ORA-20000: GLMCCURB: There is no daily exchange rate defined from XDR to MUR for MAY-00 for rate type Corporate.
ORA-06512: at "APPS.RA_MRC_CUSTOMER_TRX_BIUD", line 318
ORA-04088: error during exception of trigger 'APPS.RA_MRC_CUSTOMER_TRX_BIUD'
ORA-06512: at "APPS.ARP_PROCESS_HEADER_INSRT_COVER", line 786

APP-01728: An assignment does not exist for these parameters.
Cause: An attempt was made to find a sequence for this document flexfield. The option says Sequential Numbering is only partially used.
Action: None is necessary unless you expected this document flexfield to have a sequence defined."
We checked the Daily Rates from XDR to MUR (Nav Path in Receivables: Setup->Financials->Currencies->Rates->Daily) and it shows only IATA rates, which is correct since XDR is not for Corporate rate type.
What we don't understand is why the error message prompts for an exchange rate to be defined from XDR to MUR for rate type Corporate.
Where is it defined that the transaction should look for rate type Corporate? Should I define it to look for IATA rate type for such kind of transaction?
Can anyone advise. Thanks.

Andrew Li,
1.For the first message, please check to your DBA, maybe there is some patches should apply.
2. For the error msg APP-01728: An assignment does not exist for these parameters. Do you use document sequence number ? If Yes, make sure your document sequence has been assigned to proper SOB, and then please check profile option for Sequential Numbering. The Sequential Numbering profile should Partially Used or Always Used.
I hope it will solve your problem

Using Diffrent Exchange rate Type for Payroll

Hi All experts,
We wish to use a different exchange rate type for Payroll currency conversion. As we all know that the Payroll driver uses the currency coversion rate M and is hardcoded in the standard Programmes.
Now please suggest me whether it is possible in any means to use different currency conversion rate for Payroll?
Also we have explored the Global payroll, but the same has been not yet released for all customers, can I use it as it provides with the option of choosing exchange rate type on a particular date and have standard excahnge protection IT.
Awaiting guidance from u all....
Thanks in advance

Hi,
No i want system to pick diffrent exchange rate so i want to change exchange rate type for 1st Local Currency.
But that area is greyed out. Is there any system setting where i can maintain diffrent Exchange rate type for 1st Local Currency instead of "M". or is there any other way out that system will pick up diffrent exchange rate.
Problem is that two entities are operating in different market having same local currency but conversion rate for Foreign currency will be diffrent e.g. Local Currency EUR Exchange rate between EUR -USD in France 1.20 and Exchange rate between EUR-USD in Germany 1.25.
Is there any wayout to deal with such situation.
Please suggest.

OBIEE currency conversion

Hi,
I have something i don't really understand in OBIEE 10g,
I have done a full financial ETL load, I went to see my values in predefined financial dasboard , but all my values are in dollars $
for example if locally i have 7200 in the dashdoard i have approximatively 13,926.
this value (7200) is the same in the datawarehouse , it is only in the dashboard that it is different?
My question is how can i change this or convert this to my local value ? Like after an ETL load i still have 7200 in the datawarehouse and in the dashboard !!!
Also how this convertion to dollar $ occur ? where this calculation is made ? Where can i change those rate in a flexible way ?
i have made some changes in the DAC $$GLOBAL_CURR_CODE and $$GLOBAL_RATE_TYPE but the result still in dollar $
Pls suggest.
Thanks in advance
Jo.

Well, Then this is DAC configuration issue..
Can you make sure you have same value in all these parameters: i.e. "Corporate"
$$GLOBAL1_RATE_TYPE
$$GLOBAL2_RATE_TYPE
$$GLOBAL3_RATE_TYPE
$$DEFAULT_LOC_RATE_TYPE (the conversion rate type for document currency to local currency conversion).
Also, for
$$GLOBAL1_CURR_CODE (for the document currency).
$$GLOBAL2_CURR_CODE (for the local currency).
$$GLOBAL3_CURR_CODE (for the global currency).
The above parameters are overwritten to 'USD' code if you have made use of same OOTB subject areas...Create a new customized Subject Area and give your Currency Code value with rate as 1.
