OBIA - Global Currency Code

I have a question regarding the following parameters for OBIA:
$$GLOBAL1_CURR_CODE
$$GLOBAL2_CURR_CODE
$$GLOBAL3_CURR_CODE
In the Configuration guide, it specifically states the following:
$$GLOBAL1_CURR_CODE is for Document Currency
$$GLOBAL2_CURR_CODE is for Local Currency
$$GLOBAL3_CURR_CODE is for Global Currency
Question:
1. My initial understanding was that the 3 parameters are just 3 options of defaulting the global currency on the report. So am I correct? Or each Global Curr Code parameter has a different purpose? And it is so, what is the purpose?
2. With the prior paramters in mind, is each Global Exchange Rate Type parameter for each Global Current Code? i.e. $$GLOBAL1_CURR_CODE is for $$GLOBAL1_RATE_TYPE
3. Could user create their own custom Global Exchange Rate Type? i.e. I see Corporate, User, EMU, and 2 custom types --> 1. Average 2. Monthly
4. In the Oracle Analytics Warehouse, how are all this being reflected? I noticed that the fact tables store all three exchange rates. How will these exchange rate be reflected on the report? Or it is meant for custom reports and custom conversion between those three exchange rates?
Thanks in advance,
Alvin

Bump. Any insight would be help. Thank you in advance!

Configuring Global Currencies in BI Apps 7.9.6 for EBS 11.5.10 Source

Hi All,
After reviewing the Configuring Common Areas and Dimensions section of the Oracle BI Applications document [Oracle Business Intelligence Applications Configuration Guide for Informatica PowerCenter Users Version 7.9.6 E14216-01|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14223_01/bia.796/e14216.pdf] I have a question regarding section +3.1.2 How to Configure Global Currencies+.
Background
OLTP Source: Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10
OBI Apps: Financial Analytics 7.9.6
We have 49 enabled Currencies and multiple Sets of Books (SOBs) each with a different Functional Currency and I am concerned with the limitations of the Global Currencies configuration within OBI Apps. From the documentation it states that:
Global currencies. Oracle BI Applications provides three global currencies, which are the common currencies used by the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse. I'm keen to know if the 3 standard Global Currencies can be extended by adding further custom parameters in the Source System Parameters e.g. $$GLOBAL4_CURR_CODE, $$GLOBAL5_CURR_CODE, etc. and corresponding Exchange Rate parameters $$GLOBAL4_RATE_TYPE, etc.
From the documentation definition of Document, Local and Global currencies, the following configuration for the Global currencies does not make much sense:
$$GLOBAL1_CURR_CODE (for the document currency).
$$GLOBAL2_CURR_CODE (for the local currency).
$$GLOBAL3_CURR_CODE (for the global currency).Presumably these should be the 3 standard Global Currency definitions. If so, I want to confirm that the Document and Local currencies get picked up automatically depending on your EBS configuration?
Thanks for your time, all input greatly appreciated... and points duly awarded :-)
Have a great day.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

Hi,
The 3 Global currency codes are different from functional , local currency.
All the transactions are brought into the warehouse and there is no limitation to the number of currencies that can be brought in but for reporting purpose you want to convert all these transactions in multiple currencies to a single currency ...lets say US$ and at a monthly rate or GBP at a spot rate etc..
So in a nutshell the document and local currenclies do come in and there is no configuration needed but translation to a global reporting currency and the rates at which its converted is determined by what you provide in DAC.. the conversion is done by mplt_currency_conversion which is present in each and every fact mapping.

Q: changing Global Currency 1 in OBIA 11.1.1.7.1

We started configuring BI Apps 11.1.1.7.1 and are not able to change the Global Currency 1 (and 2-5) from USD to EUR (or anything else). Same applies for Global Currency Exchange Rate Type 1-n.
In the Edit Parameter Value dialog, no values are displayed, and no edit is possible, although the icon does not indicate that this is a read-only parameter.
Any idea's what we are missing.
Thanks,
Luc

We finally got this to work, by adding an Externally Conformed Domains:
In the Functional Setup Data Configuration and Load Plan Administration
select Manage Externally Conformed Domains
Configure Domain for E-Business Suite:
Currency
Conformed Currency Rate Type
After this we could select EUR as global currency 1.
There may be other possibilities, let me know if you managed to use alternative solutions.
Best regards,
Luc

Accounting document currency code for transfer between company code

Hi;
We have one business process here. 2 plant with 2 different company code.
Plant P1 -> Company code C1
Plant P2 -> Company code C2
Now we make material movement between P1 and P2 via MIGO_GR , movement type 301. Accounting document will be generated when MM document posting.
From SAP standard, the accounting document currency will pick up from company code currency code.
For example
C1 -> currency USD
C2 -> currency EUR
But now we would like to generate the accouting document with different currency code, for example accounting document under C1 will be EUR? is that possible except to change the company code currency. Because company code currency change will be a big impact.
Thanks in advance

Anyone having an idea how to solve it?

Check the web service request and response in log immediately when you get this error.I think some setting at Siebel side needs to be done.

Adobe Form called from SAP Portal, not executing interface global init code

Hello!
I have an adobe form called from both R/3 and SAP Portal and I need to show long text dinamically calculated.
The deal is at the SAP Portal execution, as scenario characteristics don't allow string definitions, I'm using 255 characters tables (QISR_TAB_TYPE), that I'm trying to convert inside form interface (Global init code).
The problem is that the interface global init code is being executed when the form is called from R/3, but it is not at SAP Portal.
Does anybody know how to manage this? It's kind of a problem that the BAdi method int_service_request_init doesn't allow types over 255 characters... and if it is not possible to access the form interface code section (maybe there's any way)... i need to find some code section where i can convert tables before the form context is filled!!
Thanks a lot!!
Regards,
Diana.

Currency Code of a Legal Entity - R12

Hi,
I need to find out the currency code for a Legal Entity in a R12 instance
Based on what I have read and from e-TRM, I have written the following queries:
select gsb.currency_code
from hr_operating_units hou,
       xle_entity_profiles xep,
       gl_ledgers gsb
where hou.default_legal_context_id = xep.legal_entity_id
   and hou.set_of_books_id = gsb.ledger_id
   and xep.legal_entity_id = 9999;
select currency_code
from gl_ledger_le_v
where legal_entity_id=9999
   and ledger_category_code='PRIMARY';Which of these two is more accurate or is there some other way in which I can obtain the Legal Entity currency?
Thanks,
Sujoy
Closing this thread as there have been no answers. I went with the second query.

Hi Sandeep and thanks for your quick response.
Our business problem is that this entity is very high volume pertaining to open purchase orders and invetory transactions. In essense the business stays exactly the same, the only change is that it will move to another country with an ownership change. We want the current R12 ledger, company and inventory orgs to stay the same. If the new entity cannot assume the current structure, we have a huge setup and conversion task to make the change.
Again thanks for your quick response.

Information about Global Usage Code in 10g and 11g

Hi all,
While creating TP in 10g in Step 4: Create Trading Partner: Delivery Channel , there is a field Global Usage Code which has values as 'Test' or 'Production'.
But in case of 11g, i dont see a field for Global Usage Code. If it is not present in the front end, then does B2B 11g picks this value from backend?
Can someone provide some pointers on this??

As far as I know, "Global Usage Code" was an indicator field only and used to specify the usage of the delivery channel. If it is set to Test, then the delivery channel is used only for testing purposes. If it is set to Production, then it is used only for production purposes. It has no affect on actual message processing.
This field is no more available in 11g and such indication is also not required because of Weblogic domain concept as you will have at least different domains for diferen environments (if you are using same installation fo all env)

Anuj

Global Company Code

Hi All,
While we transfer documents for customer Master and vendor Master and bank Master through ALE then it requires for 'Global Company code' which I have to assign under Company code global parameters.
Can anyone explain me for what reason this customization required and will it affect any other R/3 customization?
Kindly clear my doubts.
Thanks & Regards
Ajoy

Even if you do not have Special Purpose Ledger functionality, if you need to transfer company-code specific data between system using ALE (IDocs), you will have to define global company code (also called as cross-system company code) and assign it to company code. Read the following SAP IMG activity documentation.
There are global organizational units which must be named the same in all systems to avoid any errors occurring in the distributed environment. Local organizational units are assigned to global organizational units in the individual systems.
There are global organizational units for the organizational units:
Company code
Business area
If you want to use ALE, you have to assign the local organizational units to the global organizational units in your systems to ensure that they are used consistently in the distributed environment.
Cross-system company codes are used in the distribution in financial accounting. There is exactly one central system for each cross-system company code in the distributed environment. One company code has to be assigned to this cross-system company code on each system involved in the distribution.
When sending an IDoc with company code-dependent data, the company code is replaced with the cross-system company code in all company code fields. When receiving this kind of IDoc the reverse conversion takes place on the target system.

How to report with local and global currency in Deliveries?

Dear all,
i am working on a delivery scenario where i have in the datasource NETWR(Net value
), WAERK (Document currency).
I would like to be able to report with local currency and global currency.
Could you please help by explaining how to proceed?
Thank you.
Cheers

Hi Gilo,
You have to check with the business on the following.
1) What would be the key date of currency conversion? Is this any document date from the transaction ( Delivery Date ) or report execution date?
2) What would be the target currency ? ( for local and Global currency ). Whether this can be determined at the time of loading or should it be based on user selection criteria?
3) What is the exchange rate type that has to be used? ( for example 'M' ).
Once you have the answers to these questions, you can decide whether to do the currency conversion in the backend or front end in the report during runtime.
For example, if the user wants to input the target currency on selection variable and wants to use the exchage rate as of the report execution date, then this currency onversion has to be done at runtime.
For more details,Please check help.sap.com or SDN

Is there a possibility not to show the currency code on the document layout, ie, when printing document
Thanks

Hi Kentish,
That would be depending on each document. You may change variable to a database field to show amount without currency code.
Thanks,

A table mapping between ISO country code and ISO currency code

Hi experts,
I want to know whether there is a table mapping between ISO country code and ISO currency code.I have searched T005(Countries) and TCURC(Currency Codes).why the filed of WAERS(Country currency) hasn't maintained in talbe T005?Whether ISO country code and ISO currency code hasn't direct relation?
Regards,

Kelvin,
If you know the table which is having ISO Country Code or ISO Currency code,then go to that table and clik on GRAPHIC(ctrlShiftf11) which will give the foreign key relationships.I guess checking all those table displayed in the graphic will give you some lead.
