Currency conversions & date conversions

Hi,
can anyone tell me about the currency conversions & date conversions and where they used.Routines are needed for that.please tell me the scenarios for this.

Hi Chandra,
We can do currency translationin
1. Transfer rules,
2.Update rules
3. BEX Reporting.
we have to write code ...........also we can use some function module for translating currency in transfer rule/update rules.
go through these documents:
Refer to Following document on currency translation in BEx

Data conversion strategy for new SOB

Dear Viewers
on 11.5.10
We are creating a new SOB with a change in currency from Feb-11 as this is the requirement
For the same, we need to do data conversion.
I have a confusion for Purchase Orders and Sales Orders
Purchase Orders:
Open purchase orders will be converted, means the unfulfilled PO`s i.e the ones not received and are fully open.
The PO`s which have been recieved but not delivered, Requested the users to clear the intransit receipts.
The PO's which are partially received, what to be done for them?
If a PO is fully received and Delivered will not me converted to the new SOB as its not an open PO
but If invoice comes after Feb-11, than how the matching will be done?
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB
Sales Orders:
Open sales orders will be converted, that is the ones that have been entered and not yet booked.
Users have been requested to clear off the Sales order lines which are already pick confirmed but not yet shipped, hence they will be shipped and interfaced to AR
For the Sales orders that have been booked, those lines that are not yet processed further will also be converted.
Now what if a receipt comes after feb 11, how to handle this as the sales order wiould not have been converted?
Please give your advise on the data migration strategy for PO`s and SO's.
Please do add any point that may have been missed by me
Appreciate your help
Thanks

Hi David,
for master data conversion you can use LSMW and the RE-FX BAPIs. (please refer to SAP note [782947|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/782947] ).

Business needs to take a decision whether they are fine with matching the POs manually (i.e. referring the documents and verify), in this case you may capture the PO information in a DFF in the Invoice distribution. Otherwise if it has to be converted identifying the POs under this scenario, you may consider converting those maintaining receipt close tolerance as 100% and matching type as 2 -way (again business approval needed to handle audit issues) in order to avoid the receipts/delivery conversion etc. 
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB Ideally returns can be done using Miscellaneous/Account Alias Issues specifying the appropriate transaction reasons to clarify the scenario.

Data Conversion Logic

I am now trying to implement a data conversion logic(such as UOM field), I want to load all the data conversion rules in the cache from file and keep them in the cache. So when mapping starts it just picks up the data conversion rules from the cache.
Using GlobalContainer it is ok for one mapping even several UOM fields(just load from file once). But it will load from file again when the mapping is triggered again.
Is there any logic I can use to implememt the data conversion just load from file once?
Regards,
Nick

Hi Arnold,
normally every input should be made in LC, why you enter the data in group currency?
However if you have to start from group currency the only solution to avoid this error is to put at the end of sprunconversion the ON_ERROR_CONTINUE clause.
But remember he will stop to notify every type of error so you have to be very careful and have this clear in mind when some issue occurs with the currency conversion.

Import conversion data table from SAP R/3 into value mapping table in XI

Hi:
    Somebody knows how to import a table with conversion data that are in SAP R/3 and to take it to a value mapping table in XI?
    The purpose is to use a mapping table that can change in the future. Must I use a ABAP programming that retrieve data and build the value mapping table?
    If so, how I specify in the ABAP programming the group id, the scheme, the agency and the corresponding value?
    Please, help me.
    Regards!!!

Hi David,
please refer to this section in the help: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2a/9d2891cc976549a9ad9f81e9b8db25/content.htm
There is an interface for mass replication of mapping data. The steps you need to carry out to use this are:
+Activities
To implement a value-mapping replication scenario, proceed as follows:
       1.      Register the Java (inbound) proxies.
To do so, call the following URLs in the following order in your Internet browser:
¡        http://:/ProxyServer/register?ns=http://sap.com/xi/XI/System&interface=ValueMappingReplication&bean=localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.xi.services/ValueMappingApplication&method=valueMappingReplication (for the asynchronous replication scenario)
¡ http://:/ProxyServer/register?ns=http://sap.com/xi/XI/System&interface=ValueMappingReplicationSynchronous&bean=localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.xi.services/ValueMappingApplicationSynchronous&method=valueMappingReplicationSynchronous (for the synchronous replication scenario)
You only need to perform this step once (for each installation).
       2.      Application programming
The ABAP program must perform the following tasks:
¡        Read the value mapping data from the external table
¡        Call the outbound proxy used to transfer the data to a message, which is then sent to the Integration Server
       3.      Configuration of the replication scenario in the Integration Directory
This involves creating all the configuration objects you need to execute the scenario successfully. One special aspect of the value-mapping replication scenario is that the receiver is predefined (it must be on the Integration Server). The sender, however, is not predefined in the replication scenario and can be defined to meet your individual requirements.
For example, you can use the shipped ABAP proxies.
In the case of the receiver communication channel, choose the adapter type XI. Ensure that you configure a channel for the Java proxy receiver in this case.
Enter the path prefix /MessagingSystem/receive/JPR/XI for this purpose.

In PDF to Excel conversion dates like 03/12/15 convert to Dec 3rd 2015 not the correct date of Mar 12th 2015 whereas date 03/13/2015 converts correctly as March 13th 2015

In PDF to Excel conversion dates like 03/12/15 convert to Dec 3rd 2015 not the correct date of Mar 12th 2015 whereas date 03/13/2015 converts correctly as March 13th 2015

Hi DirTech,
Are both of these dates in the same Excel file? If they're in different files, are you choosing the same language for OCR (optical character recognition)?
If they are in the same PDF file, how was that PDF file created? Was it created from a third-party application (rather than an Adobe application)? If it was created by a third-party application, it could be that it wasn't written to spec, and that's why you're seeing some oddities in the PDF > Excel conversion. (See Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and form... | Adobe Community.)

Conversion date

Hi,
I created the Info query used 6 tables i.e. ANLA, ANLB, ANLC, ANLZ, ANEP and ANEK. The issue is some assets is showing the conversion data i.e. 05/31/2009 and some assets is given current date (if the asset posted any retirement / additions / transfers u2013 the same date is updated in the query), but business asking the original date i.e. conversion date (05/31/2010) for converted / old assets.
The goal of this table view and query set is to pull the entire asset base including converted, new adds, and new retirements to a certain point in time or period end. But, we found that it was not pulling converted assets because of the linkage of data between 6 different tables.
There are two assets (130049 & 174068, both with sub 0). Iu2019ve made notes for each line of data in column u201CAu201D. 674068 seem to work perfectly as there is a posting row for the asset from conversion, a new $50 Addition, then the retirement. 630049 is where we are having a problem as the data query is not pulling the original conversion row that I would expect to see for Rs.109.84. Whatu2019s interesting is when I retired total asset (including new adds) it retired the new adds and the converted amount. What is preventing us from pulling the conversion data row in our view or query set?
I have data sets due to tax in the very near future (already put them off quite a bit). If you could help us look at this issue at your earliest convenience I would really appreciate it
Thanks in Advance,
C Babu

And both java.sql.date and java.sql.Timestamp inherit
from java.util.Date, so you can just cast to go back.Although you almost never need to. The only case would be to force a different signature to be called:
void foo(java.util.Date dateOrTimestampThingy) {} // 1
void foo(java.sql.Timestamp dateOrTimestampThingy) {} // 2
Timestamp ts = ...
foo(ts); // calls #2
foo((java.util.Date)ts); // calls #1

GL Data Conversion from Legacy to Oracle EBS

Hi All,
I am tasked with converting legacy data into GL. I have worked on other conversions like supplier, AR and AP conversions but never worked on GL conversion, so I don't know how and where to start, what are the pre-requisites for entering data into gl_interface table how to ensure that data is correct in the .csv file etc.
Kindly request you all to guide me in right direction. Hope to hear from you all very soon!!! :)
Regards

Hi,
When you talk about GL-Data it is the trial balance to be loaded from legacy to oracle applications.
You can use Web-ADI to upload it ,the check list are
The balance for each account comibnation in the legacy system to be mapped to GL-Oracle code combination balance
With respect to open AR, AP Invoices if the invoices are converted using a control account for migration in GL then
the the balance transfered from AP,AR need not be reversed in GL from the source receivables and payables.
In case if the same account combination are for migrating the balances from AP,AR to GL ..Then the balances transferred from AP,AR should be reversed ..so that it does not affect the TB-GL-Balance
Finally ensure that the balance for the TB-tallys with your legacy system and upload it using Web-ADI ,import and
review and post it.
Hope this points helps your GL-Data conversion.

Ramaa

Data Conversion in SAP E-Recruiting.

Hi SAP E-Recruiters,
Our client is using a Legacy application for recruiting candidates where it has 5000 candidates data base (internal and external candidates' applications).
Now they are asking for movement of this whole data to the newly implementing SAP E-recruiting system. We are exploring various data conversion methods and found that BDC, LSMW will not work for E-recruiting data upload as we have every thing in BSP/Web Dynpro pages here.
We need your help in finding a solution for moving this data from legacy to SAP E-Recruiting. Pls do the needful.
Thanks,
Sudheer

Sudheer,
So far there are no SAP delivered migration methods or BAPI's available conversion of candidates/applications, as you have already specified BDC's wouldnot work. Internal candidates always can be brought over in eRecruitment with integration techniques between PA and eRecruit depending upon the landscape.
However, for external candidates custom conversion programs have to be written by making use of methods/function modules that are used in BSP/WebDynpro.

Sridhar

Crystal Data Conversion Issue (Error converting data type varchar to datetime)

Hi,
I can run stored procedure without error in SQL Server using my personal credentials as well as database credentials.
I can also run Crystal Report after connecting to Stored procedure without error on my desktop using my personal credentials as well as database credentials.
But when I upload the crystal report in BOBJDEV and when I run using database credentials report fails saying that "Error in File ~tmp1d1480b8e70fd90.rpt: Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 18456 ]" but I can run the crystal report successfully on BOBJDEV using my personal credentials.
I googled (Data Conversion Error Message) about this issue & lot of people asked to do "Verify Database" in Crystal Report. So I did that, but when I do it I am getting a error message like this:
Error converting data type varchar to datetime.
Where do you think the error might be occurring? Did anyone faced this kind of issue before? If so, how to resolve it?
(FYI, I am using Crystal Reports 2008, & for stored procedure I have used SSMS 2012 )
Please help me with this issue.
Thanks & Regards.
Naveen.

hello Naveen,
since the report works fine in the cr designer / desktop, we need to figure out where you should post this question.
by bobjdev do you mean businessobjects enterprise or crystal reports server? if so please post this question to the bi platform space.

Billing Legacy master & transactional data conversion/migration in SAP ISU

Hi Experts,
Please let me know, in ISU implementation project, what is Billing related Legacy master & transactional data conversion/migration is done in SAP ISU system.
Thanks in advance

Pankaj,
There is no straight forward transaction to download the Configuration data and export it to a file.
However, you can use the BC set functionality to extract the IMG node with its contents.
Check the following SAP help portal link for more info on BC sets
Business Configuration Sets (BC-CUS) - SAP Library
The archive data that you are talking about; Is it master data or transaction data?
Also, what this data is related to-Financial Documents, Billing related info?
There is one standard transaction SARA through which based on the migration object you can archive the data and export it into a file in a particular location..
Hope it helps..
Thanks,

Data conversion for New GL - Going live during fiscal year

Hi Experts,
My client is going live on Oct 1 (fiscal year in Jan -Dec). So for data conversion we need to load P&L and BalanceSheet as of Sept 30, 2009. I need your help to resolve few open issues. (we have activated Doc Splitting with Zero Balance and Segment )
1) When we load P&L balances - how can I assign Profit Centers to all these P&L iitems .
2) What is the procedure (best practices) to assign Profit Centers to all the Balance Sheet items since we are going live during Fiscal Year
3) When we process open items (AR, AP) in month of October how the Profit Center assignment will work?
(My client will be using Profit /Cost center terminology first time, so we need to map all the B&S and PnL items to Profit centers)
4) What is the best way to map all the Balance Sheet GL accounts to Profit Centers.
Sorry for asking too many questions. Any help would me very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

1) When we load P&L balances - how can I assign Profit Centers to all these P&L iitems .
Each P&L account balance has to be upload with cost centre, then automatically PC will be triggered.
2) What is the procedure (best practices) to assign Profit Centers to all the Balance Sheet items since we are going live during Fiscal Year
Let client decide the profit centre for balance sheet items, since they knows which balance relates to which pc
3) When we process open items (AR, AP) in month of October how the Profit Center assignment will work?
While uploading AR,AP balances, each line item to be uploaded with profit centre, automatically in october PC assignment will work.
(My client will be using Profit /Cost center terminology first time, so we need to map all the B&S and PnL items to Profit centers)
4) What is the best way to map all the Balance Sheet GL accounts to Profit Centers
Try to identify each balance sheet gl balance to each profit centre, this will help in future reports. otherwise put in common pc

R/3 Date Conversion problem

How to convert the R/3 Date to Array.

If you are receiving a date field from R/3, please use SimpleDateFormat(class) to re-arrange your date in any fashion. Along with the method format you can just have your date in any format :
DD-MM-YYYY
MM-DD-YY
DD-MMMMM-YYYY (Month will be spelled out as text)
All you need to do is :
SimpleDateFormat sf = new SimpleDateFormat("DD/MM/YYYY");
sf.format(myDateField);
Since R/3 date conversion is usually for this reason, I mentioned the above class.

Please provide some help.
Thank you!!!!
