Currency Variable?

Hi,
Our onsite folks have made changes to currency fields.In the properties of the currency field ie Total value. They have made settings in currency translation ,
<b>currency coversion key as currecny rate(today's Date) and target currency</b> as from variable.What does this signifies?and I am getting a variable as a currency from where I am getting this variable as I could not see any variables in the report.?
Points will be definitely assigned for the proper replis.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
Vasu.

Hello ,
In the query , in the calculated key figure properties,there is option called currency conversion key and in that you have target currency from variable entry that is where you assign the variable that you have created.
I am not sure whether this could be done , but just have a try ,
just check the variable screen that is the order of characteristics in the variable screen,
then try to put the characteristics used in the query ( free characteristics) in the same order.

How to decalre a currency variable

Hi all,
how to declare a currency variable of length 23 and 5 decimal places . please help me

Hi,
You can define a data element of length 23 and decimals 5 and make use of it in the program.
we cannot declare directly in the program as p because the max length accepted by packed decimal(p) is 16.
data: var(23) type p decimals 5. ( not possible).
data: var type ztestcu. (possible).
reward if useful.

How can I display the value of the Target Currency variable in my query

We have a query which has a key figure set to prompt for a Target Currency at runtime. Because the user did not want the currency displayed in each cell they used the NODIM function to remove it. They do however want to display the Target Currency in a cell within the report. Using Report Designer, I've tried to set up a Text Box to display this value, however, it is not in the list when looking at Constants, Filters or Variables or trying to display it in a Text box. Has anyone found a way to be able to do this?

Hi and thanks for the reply. I should have stated that because this was a validated query, we'd like to do this without modifying the query and thus having to go through another lengthy validation process. That's why we did not go the route of adding Unit to the query but we may have to. Another thing we can do is use a text variable in the headers that displays the currency. That works but, again, it's a query change whereas finding it in Report Designer will not require a query modification.

Formating currency variable

hi ,
i have a variable which is of type CURR 15 decimal 2. If this variable contains the value as 0 (0.00), then it should not be displayed as 0.00. Instead, a blank space should come in that place..

Hi,
If you are using ALV to display the report, then there is a field in fieldcat 'NO_ZERO' pass 'X' to it.
Hope this resolves your query.

Currency Conversion variables

Hi,
I have some reports in BEX and recently we got BO XI 3.1 latest release in our office. So, i started migrating all the reports to BO. Since my user dont want to use the BEX in going forward (not even BEX query). So im wondering abt the currency conversions.
Because in BEX Query the currency conversion variables are been defined, is there any equivalent in BO??? or BO Xi 3.1 can read the currency variables defined in the RSCUR??
Thanks,
Siva

Hi Siva,
I am not sure why no one has replied to this, but it is probably because no one knows the answer (including me!). I am not aware of where currency conversion values are defined in Business Objects, or Web Intelligence. I know there are locales which interpret data into your language, But I don't know very much as to how they work,
Maybe there is someone who reads this who can help? I would like to know also!
Thanks

Not able to use variable on 0LOC_CURRCY in Currency Translation in Query

Hi Gurus,
I am using currecny translation in query for a key figure for which currecy is 0LOC_CURRCY.
Exchange Rate which i am using is updated Yearly. So time reference is 0Calyear (star of calendar year).
Source Currency option is - Source Currency from Data Record
Target Currency - Target Currency Selection with Translation
For target currency, I am using a user input variable which is on characteristics 0CURRENCY.
I want to use a variable which should be on characteristics 0LOC_CURRCY (because it gives Key and Text both in the selection screen of the query). I have created a variable on 0LOC_CURRCY but I am not able to find it in the target currency while defining currency conversion for the key figure.
Please let me know if anybody has any solution.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
Instead of defining target currency as "Target Currency Selection with Translation", use the option of "Target currency from Variable" and mention the varibale created on 0loc_currcy there.
This way, you dont need to mention the target currency variable on the key figure. It would autmatically be populated.

Currency translation problem for calculated key figure

Hi All
I have a problem with the currency translation for a calculated key figure.
I have a requirement to show the MM consignment stock value in the specified currency from the selection screen.
For consignment stock, there is no value maintained in the system. So for this we need to calculate the value as below
Restricted key figure: RKFConsignment stock: Total stock with special stock indicator restriction "K"
Calculated keyfigure: Consignment stock value = Nodim( RKFConsignment stock) * (Standard cost / price unit).
Here, in the calculated keyfigure properties --> I have used a currency translation for the 0CALMONTH.
The query has selection on the 0calmonth.
But in the result the I am getting unexpected results.
Do we have any inconsistencies in the currency translation on the formulas?
Please help me on this.
Regards
S.R

Hi All
I have noticed something. I changed my query date selection to Calendar day - Keydate instead of calendar month.
And I have changed the currency variable to fixed exchange rate "CHF", it is working fine.
I think I have some problem with the currency translation variable.
Could anyone of you please send me the currency translation variable for Calendar month with the below parameters
exch rate type : M
Time reference : 0CALMONTH
End of month
Target currency for a variable : < var created on 0currency>
For my report, i need calendar month selection, currency selection.
Please help me with your ideas.
Thank you

How to derive value from another variable and use it to read master data?

Hi,
I have following case:
First I need to read the value from Cost Center -variable (ZIPCC) and then I need to use that value to determine the home currency of that cost center from the cost center master data table (field: OBJ_CURR).
I know to basic idea on how to do this, but don't seem to get the syntax correct. Could someone point me in the right direction?
So the objects in play are:
ZIPCC = Cost center selection variable (mandatory, single value)
ZIPCUR = Cost Center Currency variable (customer exit, single value)
0COSTCENTER
0OBJ_CURR = Field in cost center master data
Help will be greatly appreciated!
-m

Hi,
Thank you very much for your example I can see that this logic works! However I'm experiencing trouble in selecting the 0OBJ_CURR
This kind of declaration isn't working: "D1 Like /BIC/0OBJ_CURR."
And the same goes for the Selection:
"Select single OBJ_CURR into D1 from /BI0/PCOSTCENTER where COSTCENTER = i_t_var_range-low."
This is where my syntax also went wrong.
0OBJ_CURR is a unit, is there a special way to declare it and use it in the code?
(and 0CURRENCY is a reference unit for 0OBJ_CURR).
Do you have adivce on this?

WEB Application / Dynamic variable input / Prompts

I've defined a variable on characteristic Currency with the following definition:
Processing by              : User Entry/ Default Value
Variable represents        : Single Value
Variable entry is          : Optional
Ready for input            : yes
Can be changed in query nav: yes
Default Value              : EUR
This variable ist used in "Currency Translation" as "Target currency" (variables entry: yes)
The query is used in a Web-Report that performs the following command by selecting currencies from a checkbox:
url=SAP_BW_URL_Get() +"&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT&VAR_NAME_1=SL_CURR&VAR_VALUE_EXT_1=";
url=url+value;
(value is the code of the selected currency)
Everything works pretty good, but opening the web-report I get a prompt window for the variable. How can I avoid this ?
Changing the variable property <Ready for input : no> causes the effect that the dynamically changing of the variable doesn't work anymore. It seems that in this case always the default value of the variable is taken.
The application should use the default value while opening the report, afterwards it should be possible to set the variable dynamically.
Thank you very much for your ideas !!

Hi Stefan,
you can activate/deactivate the variable screen with parameter "Force Variable Screen" in your web template.

Read currency values from the BDCDATA field FVAL

HI All,
I have a requirement where i need to read the value of some currency from the field FVAL of BDCDATA into a currency variable.
simple assignment using = is not working because the FVAL value may contain , or . in between depending upon the user parameters.
ex:       FVAL = 100,000.00 in US
and      FVAL = 100.000,00 in Europe.
Is there any way we can handle this situation?
Thanks,
Prakash Pandey

yes sorry
DATA vl_dcpfm TYPE usr01-dcpfm.
DATA vl_decimal_separator TYPE char01.
DATA vl_thousands_separator TYPE char01.
SELECT SINGLE dcpfm FROM usr01 INTO vl_dcpfm WHERE bname = sy-uname.
CASE vl_dcpfm.
   WHEN space.
* FRANCE 1 ...
     vl_thousands_separator = '.'.
     vl_decimal_separator = ','.
   WHEN 'X'.
* USA ...

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

How to check where a apraticulr key figure has currency translations?

Hi,
i need to check the currency translations for a key figure!
where i can find those translations? i mean i am not sure whether this has been wrdefined in update rules or transfer rules!
how to check this?
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Sankar,
i did not find any currency translations in URs nor in TRs nor in report KF properties!
where else can be possible?
i guess it is in extract structure? are there any still methods available to define currency translations.
while running the report it is asking for currency variable in the selection screen!
but really no idea what does this variable will have the effect on translation!
any inputs?
Thanks,
Ravi

Cell Definition, Cell Help, Currency Translation

We are currently using a help cell within cell definition that calculates a key figure. We have adjusted the query to be able to show the key figures in both Canadian and US currency.
The Help cells within the query do not pick up this translation and so the currency in the cells that reference these help cells is incorrect.
We are using a variable on the variable screen to change the currency as needed within the report. Is there any way we can get these help cells to pick up the currency translation or do we need to create the formula within each cell in the cell definitiion?
Thank you.
Caroline

Caroline,
You should be able to add the same currency variable the report uses within the help cell for your calculations.
My assumption is your report is using an infoobject restriction (like 0DOC_CURRCY) with your key figures to determine currency values. If you bring this object in as a restriction in your help cell, you can then add the variable. This should correct your translation issues.
Good luck!

Display the document currency instead display Currency in Report

Hi Experts,
I am having a query in support system, in that one characteristic called document currency is there under Unit Dimension and this Doc currency info object having the Display currency and Document currency as Variables. Document currency Info object is in Free characteristics without related variables (Disp.curr and Doc.curr)
When I execute the query defaultly Display currency will appear as a variable in selection screen, because customer exit(cmod) has created like that
Now user want to display the document currency instead Display currency in the report, may I know how can I solve this problem?
Here I am unable to get the customer exit detatils and which program is there in CMOD, can anyone suggest me, how I will get the details?
And one more requirement in this CR, that is user want to display the key figure amount in the report should be displayed with the document currency amount only
May I know, want to do any settings for this?
Thanks to All
Regards
Mrudula

Hi rajesh,
1.customer exit value you can change in CMOD,select your project and go to components and select EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001.there go to include zxrsru01,and change display variable to document currency variable.
2. if u want to display your key figure value in document currency ,,go to that key figure info object ,,,in currency ( reference) field give document currency info object.Then map the respective amount value again in transformation.load the data, now in report document currency will be displayed along with key figure amount.
Thank you,
Joseph
