Currency conversion type with variable for target currency

Hi,
I use a currency conversion type with a bex variable for target currency in a query in order to convert a Key Figure. It works fine but instead of short text description there's the technical description of the variable in the selection screen. How can i change the description of the variable ?
For information, in the bex, we can't see the variable in "variable sequence". I use BI 7.0
François.

Hi,
The problem was that in the maintenance of the currency translation type the option  Target Currency from Variable” was checked. As a consequence in the properties of our key figure the drop-down-list Target Currency was set to  from variable” with no chance of changing it (it was grey).
What we can do was to choose the option  Target Currency Selection with Translation” instead of  Target Currency from Variable”. Now, in the properties of the key figure we can choose the variable in the dropdown-list Target Currency and tick the option “Variable Entry”. As a result, the variable shows up in the query properties and we can change its arrangement.

Siva Patil.

  • Currency Translation in Planning sequence with variable for target currency

    Hello ,
    i have a requirement, the cube contains multiple data in the Group Currency for multiple company codes. & I want to convert these amounts to another KF as local currency using planning sequence only (not using transformation, as the users want to do this when they require.)
    For this, i defined a Aggr level , filter & Planning function with Currency translation selecting the source field as AMOUNT_GC & target field as AMOUNT_LC using the Currency Translation type ZCTGCLC.
    The target currency is not know beforehand, as it depends on the company code of each records that comes in.
    Hence, Currency translation type uses  a Customer exit variable 'Z_R_0026' for target currency.
    This is customer exit variable which searches the Master data table of the Company code & replies back with the local currency of that particular company code (derived value from the company code variable also in teh filter).
    However, when i execute this planning sequence, it gives me an error saying, "no value found for variable 'Z_R_0026'
    1. when edit the CMOD code, to return only say "EUR" the planning sequence runs fine.However when i use this select statement to fetch the corresponding value of the currency using the company code reference from the company code master data table, it gives the above error. it seems to be a problem with the select statement.
    below is the code for that exit
    when 'Z_R_0026'.
         data: l_curr type /BI0/OICURRENCY.
         IF i_step = 2.
           LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range
                              WHERE vnam = 'Z_S_0003'. " Company Code Single
             CLEAR l_s_range.
        Filling Currency Key from Company Code
             select single currency
             from /bi0/pcomp_code
             into l_curr
             where comp_code = loc_var_range-low
             and objvers = 'A'.
             if sy-subrc = 0.
               l_s_range-low = l_curr.
             else.
               l_s_range-low      = 'ABC'.
             endif.
             l_s_range-opt      = 'EQ'.
             l_s_range-sign     = 'I'.
             APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
             clear l_s_range.
             EXIT.
           ENDLOOP.
         ENDIF.
    2. there is a option of using infoobject for target currency in the RSCUR itself, however, when i try to input the 0COMP_CODE for finding the attribute currency from this infoobject, it doesnt accept.
    has anyone tried this earlier ?
    Any help/suggestions , guys, pls?
    Thanks
    John

    Hi Praveen ,
    Thanks for that.
    I have a Question.
    If RSCUR were to only accept a Date InfoObject , it would be placed under a differnt heading.
    The Tab is "Currrency"  & the sub-Tab is "Target Currency"
    so i guess, it should accept other infoObjects as well.
    Moreover, the help on that InfoObject buttons says
    "Specification of an InfoObject (Characteristic) in which a currency
    attribute is stored in InfoObject maintenance. At runtime, the
    associated currency attribute is determined using the characteristic
    value and this is interpreted as source or target currency."
    & i have already defined 0currency as a attribute of 0comp_code. so this should work ideally.
    almost similiar CMOD code i have used for other too, but i dont know why only this one is getting struck.
    any help, pls.
    Thanks
    John

  • Currency Conversion types not visible for KF in BEx report

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm facing a strange issue with the curr conversion types.
    I had created a KF with 0currency for my requirement. when i'm trying to create a report on the top of the MP i'm facing this issue.
    When i right click on the KF --> selected "properties" at the bottom - we have "curr conversion types" -- here i can't see all the curr conversion types for my KF.
    Where as i checked for other KF i can see the missing currency conversion types.
    Did any one faced such issue...? please throw some light on this issue.

    HI,
    Goto RSA1 ,
    double click on you KF info Object ,
    there you can see the unit 0currency is been selected , Only those key figure which has been assigned 0currency can only be converted in Bex query.

  • Get variable in Target currency under currency conversion Tab for Key Figure

    Hi Experts,
    In one of the query in BEx Designer, for particular set of key figures I am unable to edit Target Currency under currency conversion.
    We created user exit and using a variable in BEx.
    When I chose currency conversion parameter in "Currency Conversion", Value in Target currency is empty but I am expecting the variable to get displayed over there.
    Please suggest me how to get variable in target currency. or how to edit property of key figure "Target Currency"
    Thanks,
    Saravanan.

    HI,
    which parameter you maintained in conversion type that is currency translation type which is maintained at T-code RSCUR and see which info object you maintained at currency tab after defining the currency translation type i.e at Target currency -> Info object  for determining Target currency which  is FROM INFO OBJECT in Target currency .
    Hope this will help you.

  • Currency conversion type by customer exit variable doesn't work

    Hi all.
    In my query I need amounts by quarter, applying quarters last date rates as currency conversion.
    Query has Year parameter. Based on this parameter, by customer exits I calculate every quarters last date and use them as currency conversion types.
    The problem is that query DOESN'T APPLY currency conversions!
    I checked TCURR table - currency conversions do exist for applied days
    I checked my customer exits - the date calculation works fine
    I suppose where is something wrong in query processes (customer exits/currency conversions) sequence before running it.
    Someone knows anything 'bout that?

    Check these docs.. and check again.

  • Currency Conversion Type missing in BEx

    I have created a new conversion translation type M1 based on Monthly Average exchange.
    RSCUR definition for  this conversion on the time ref tab to be a "variable time reference"- End of Period for
    Standard Info Object Fiscal Period "0FISCPER".
    Is this configuration the cause for placing a limiting restriction on the visability of this selection at runtime of query.
    The following currency translation types are not available at the runtime of the query.
    ●      Translation types for which a variable is stored (variable time reference, source currency from variable, target currency from variable, and so on).
    From BEx I am unable to select Currency Conversion (Convert to Currency USD) and Use of Currency Translation M1
    Thank You ...... Dan

    Andrey:
    Once BEx query results are displayed in M/S excel ... the user navigates (right click) to (local) query properties:
    Tab >> Currency Conversion >> select Convert to Currency will open option to determine Currency (USD) and Currency Translation (via drill down).
    Those Currency conversion types configured with variable time reference on InfoObject 0FISCPER cannot re-determine
    target currency values. Fixed Time reference conversion types can be selected through BEx.
    I found a restriction/ limitation in the following thread.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/ec/076f3b6c980c3be10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
    Restrictions:
    The following currency translation types are not available at the runtime of the query.
    ●      Inactive translation types
    ●      Translation types for which a variable is stored (variable time reference, source currency from variable, target currency from variable, and so on)
    ●      Translation types in which an InfoObject is used for determining the source currency or target currency.
    Are you aware of any way around this ??

  • Using currency conversion and text variable at the same time

    Hi all,
    In a 3.5 bex query, i am applying currency conversion on a key figure with a variable of 0currency.
    as i know, to be able to apply currency conversion, variable of currency should not be in Free characteristics or in Filter.
    it has to be selected only on the key figure.
    but now, i want to use text variable for selected currency (with type replacement path). But as i know, to be able to use text variable, variable of currency has to be
    in Free characteristics or in Filter.
    Can you please advise, how to both use currency conversion and text variable on currency?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sancho

    Sancho,
    I'm not 100% sure about this, but I'm thinking that if you are pulling the text variable from a selection in a structure, you should not need it in the free characteristic or filter. Try creating a structure, placing the currency in it as a selection, and creating a text variable as the title for the selection that is based on the currency. This may help.
    Cheers,
    Rusty

    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 .

  • Transporting currency conversion types

    I created a new currrency conversion type (trans RRC1). When I saved it, a message stated that it was successfully created/saved. However, I don't see it attatched to any of my transports (I only have 2), and it did NOT prompt me for a transport.
    In addition, When I go to the transport tab of RSA1, I searched for it with it's technical name and it could not be found there.
    Finally, I thought perhaps that they are untransportable, so I thried to directle create one in the BWQ system, however, it would not lety me.
    SO, My Question is:
    How do I collect/transport a currency conversion type object?
    Thanks!

    Thanks so much!!!! I went there & did that prior to my note, I just didn't notice that category. So Thanks again, you're great!!!

  • Target currency does not exist (although fix target currency used)

    Hello!
    we are using BW 7.3 and I have a problem with currency translation in bex query designer.
    I have currency conversion type in RSCUR called EUR_PC:
    It has fix target currency "EUR", exchange rate type "P" and time reference is based on an InfoObject.
    It has already been used in some query and worked fine for years.
    Two weeks ago I created a new query and i wanted to use this currency type. But when i click on the key figure >> Conversions Tab >> select the Conversion Type EUR_PC >> then it shows only crosses in the target currency field.
    Could anybody help me, please?  I have no idea what's wrong here....
