Currency translation with user defined exchange rates in a BEx report

Hi guys,
our business department requests a new functionality in our BW system. They want to simulate a currency translation in a BEX report. But this currency translation should be so flexible, that the user can change the exchange rates directly in the report.
For example: The report should show a list of all our local company revenues. In the first column the plan revenues will be shown in the local currency (each company has its own local currency: USA->USD; Japan->YPN, Great Britain->GBP and so on). This revenues comes from a normal infoprovider, loaded via flat-file.
In the second column the user should be able to enter or change a plan currency rate. The entered exchange rates should be stored in BW for a next use. They won't maintain the rates directly in TCURR, because this rates are only for simulation use !
In the third column the translated Revenues in Euro currency has to be shown under the use of the exchange rates from the second column.
I investigated a lot of time in the SAP help and here in the SDN, but I didn't find any solution to realize this. Is there generally a possibility to make a currency translation with exchange rates out of the TCURR? Would it be an option to use the integrated planning function of BW? Or is this requirement to far away for an simple implementation in SAP BI ?
I hope, someone of you has also fixed a similar problem or has a good inspiration.
Thank you in advance.
Thomas

thanks for the prompt reply!
Unfortunately, exchange rates are not a part of my cube. They are held in different tables, and referenced depending on what kind of exchange rates I need to be looking at (average rates, daily, planning etc.). The only way for me, at the moment, to know which rates have been used is to go to query global view, and look at the type of conversion, and then try to figure things out. Plus there can be a different key date used in the query, which makes things more complicated.
Anyway, it was worth asking
Thanks again.

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.

Is it possible to have one central user defined exchange rate for a project

When i create deliverables for a project. It asks for an exchange rate type. On entering user i am prompted to enter an exchange rate.
Is it possible to use the exchange rate setup at the workplan level for all deliverables rather than entering the rate at each deliverable.?

Hello
The exchange rate value you set in the workplan is only used for converting planed amounts entered in foreign currency. There is no standard functionality to configure a default value for USER conversion type.
Could you further elaborate on the business requirement? Why do you use conversion type as USER for events, and not a centralized conversion type managed on the GL daily rates?

Issue with indirect Quotation Exchange rates...

Hi All,
I am using FM 'POSTING_INTERFACE_CLEARING' to clear the customer open items.
While posting with indirect quotation exchange rates i.e BKPF-KURSF is in negative.It is throwing below error
"The Exchange rate may not be transferred if negative".
When i check it in BKPF table the value is saved like exp: '/1.9010'. for select query it is picking like '1.9010-'
How to resolve this issue.? it is very urgent.
Thanks in Adv.
Regards,
Raj.

Hi,
I gave the OB08 entries, not sure if you wanted me to explain the logic. Here it is..
Maintain 'Indirect quotation' from Local currency(USD) to Transaction currency(CAD) and 'Direct quotation' from Transaction currency(CAD) to Local currency(USD).
Direct quotation is where the cost of one unit of foreign currency is given in units of local currency, whereas indirect quotation is where the cost of one unit of local currency is given in units of foreign currency.
Your local currency is USD:
- Direct exchange rate: 1CAD = 0.92819 USD
- Indirect exchange rate: 1USD = 1.08238 CAD
The following settings have been made in the standard system:
- Direct quotation: ' '
-   Indirect quotation: ' / '
Direct exchange rates do not have a prefix.
Your local currency is USD. You enter a business transaction in the transaction currency CAD. Until now, you had to use direct quotation to enter the exchange rate (1CAD =0.92819 USD). If you have defined '/' as the prefix for indirect quotation, you can also enter the exchange rate with indirect quotation (1 USD = 1.08238 CAD) by entering '/1.08238' in the exchange rate field.
Direct or indirect quotation can be maintained as the standard form of quotation for a certain currency pair. You use:
         - '1' for direct quotation
         - '2' for indirect quotation
If a standard form of quotation has not been specified for a currency pair, the system automatically uses direct quotation.
You make the settings in the IMG: General Settings -- Currencies -- Set Standard for Direct/Indirect Quotation per Currency Pair.
Thanks

Currency Translation with different time dependencies

Hello,
I'd like to use different currency translations within my query.
Values of the time period 01.2006-07.2006 should be converted
1. with the exchange rates 01.2006-07.2006 (done)
2. with the current exchange rate 01.2007-07.2007
The problem is that I don't know how I can manage the second step. It would be easy if I had one period per column but I need to show several months in 1 column....
Does anyone have an idea?
Best regards,
Thomas Markus

is table TCURR maintained in R/3 with the exchange rates you want and the proper date ranges?
Then, is that table imported in BW?
If you answered yes to both, I'm not too sure what the issue is, can yopu clarify?

Define exchange rate types according to ledgers

Hi Everyone,
I am facing a problem about the exchange rate types.
I want to set different exchange rate types for my leading ledger and local ledger.
for example, the leading ledger 0L is defined for IFRS with default exchange rate type M.
the local ledger LL is defined for our country China and i want to use own-defined exchange rate type say Y001.
is it possible realize like this in SAP.
thank you so much!
regards,
samson

Hi, Samson:
I am not sure whether it make sense to have different exchange rate for same two currencies in different countries, for example, in China and US, exchange rates for RMB and USD are different in same situation, like buy-in...
Your question about exchange rate definition in Non-Leading Ledger - it is impossible to do that in Define and Activate Non-Leading Ledgers.
For the purpose of Ledger approach for parallel accounting, it is used to meet the reporting requirements basically, for example, IFRS or USGAAP or HGB, but not for exchange rate type...
If you get any surpurise information, please share with me. Thanks.
Best Regards, Lawrence

Retain standard SAP order type after copying with user defined order type

Hello SAP Gurus,
We have a requirement of retaining the standard SAP order types after copying with User defined order types. But the issue is we don't want to see the standard SAP order type such as PM01, PM02 in production system while using transaction like IW31 etc.
Is there anybody who has answer to retain these stanadard SAP order types without deleting from system configuration?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Vaibhav

Vaibhav,
When you F4 on the order type field in IW31 you will get the popup showing the order type list. At the top of this list is a button with a green "+" sign (Insert in personal list).
You can use this button to select your favourite list.
This function is available in most F4 drop-down lists.
However, you cannot set this setting for all users. You will need to write an ABAP program to do this.

Display of document line items with user defined fields

Hi all,
I have created two user defined fields in CI_COBL structure and they are available on OBC4 screen. I maintained optinal for entry in the screen layout. I posted one document with user defined fields and saved.
Now the document is updated in BSEG table. I then display the document, and it display the doucment
But when i double click on the one of the line items system gives an error that there is some problem in customising and entries missing in Table COBM.
I checked OXK3 and see that in field information for user fields, it says entries maintained in table COBM.
But still i couldnt display my line items in detail.
Any solutions
Thanks in advance
Ram

Yes your are looking at the correct sap note.
Things look pretty straight forward in the notes documentation.
1)Extend the VBKRED structure with the fields you want.
2)Populate thse values in the user exit in program DBKMVF02 in FORM routine USER_EXIT_FUELLEN_XVBKRED.
For extending a standard structure you need to create a zstructuree in se11 first and then append it to the standard structure.
In your case you need to extend VBKRED_EX1 structure rather than VBKRED.

Error erase Queries in Query Manager- The query is used with user-define...

Hello Experts
I have deleted a User Field that had a Formatted Search and now I can not remove it because it is linked according to a UF, the error message is as follows:
"The query is used with user-defined values [Message 952-23]"
There will be a way to resolve this issue???
Thanks in advance

Hi Juan,
I have tried this very limited, but the formid, is this a number in your case?
SELECT * from cshs t0 inner join ouqr t1 on t0.queryid = t1.intrnalkey
where t1.qname = '[%0]'
Running this query I can get the form id that I need to recreate, but I have a feeling you already know the form id, is this correct?
- Is there an error when you try to recreate the form id?
- Will it not let you recreate the same form id because the id is given by the system?
If it is not possible to recreate the form id, please prepare a backup and log a message. Support should be able to correct the entry in table cshs.
Hope it helps.
Jesper

Personalization Publication with user defined / multiple / discrete values

Hello,
I try to personalize a main report ( with Enterprise XI 12.1.0, Crystal Report XI )
( parameter p_company_code ( as string ), with user defined / multiple / discree and range values )
with dynamic recipients ( Crystal Report ).
For a single value it works.
But I did not find a solution how to set up the values for my parameter p_company_code so that I can start the main report
with the following company codes ( 4711, 4712, 0815-0890 ) for one recipients ( only one report for all this company codes )
Thans for your help
H. Blum

Hi Fabio,
It works as follows.
let's say you have 3 multiple single lines for your cost center variable.
once you are in the folder, select any single value & the layout is ready for planning with the corresponding cost center.
now, select the "Cost center variable row" in the header of the folder within section "Name of Variable" & click on "Trash Can" icon to "Delete Selection" of variable.
this basically deletes all the entered selections (3 entries) & displays for all.
It works this way, because we don't have "resriction of values required by user".
if am not wrong & correct me if am wrong,
overall, this is nothing but equal to "planning level not restricted with any variable".
I just tested this & the flaw in this is that, it is not only displaying for all the initially entered 3 lines but it displays for each & every cost center irrespective of the variable selections.
hope it is clear.

[All Platforms][Your Music] Make it possible to tag and filter "My Music" with user-defined tags

It would be very nice and convenient to be able to tag and filter "My Music" (playlists, songs, albums and artists) with user-defined tags. I'm sure quite a few users would like to classify their music by genre. Myself, I would like to tag my albums, assigning them to different virtual collections.

Updated: 2015-07-23Hello and thanks for the feedback!
