Slovakia Euro Conversion
Hello all,
I am gathering information in preparation for Slovakia's transition to the Euro on 1/1/2009. I am not sure what steps need to be taken in our case.
Our current setup allows for SKK (Slovakian Koruna) postings under both a USD company code, and a DKK(Danish Krona) company code. Therefore, we have SKK maintained as a transactional currency only, with exchange translations to DKK and USD functional currency, then the functional currencies rollup to USD group currency.
What steps need to be taken to convert Slovakian activity to the Euro to be compliant on 1/1/2009?
Thanks,
-Will
Hi,

This thread is created to discuss solutions, issues and feedback related to conversion of local currency in Slovakia to EUR at 01/01/2009.
Preferred language of discussion is English. Slovak language is tolerated.
All replies by SAP will be in English; with summary in Slovak.Dear Partners,
I would like to summarize several tips and recommendations from the testing of the Euro Conversion tool until now:
Summary of the steps needed for EC tool run:
Installation of the tool (version PL3,4,5):
1) It is necessary to uninstall the previous version of the tool in Windows (Start - Settings - Control Panel - Add/Remove programs)
2) Install new version
Source company:
1. Run the SQL queries to fix the paths and attachments.
Target company:
1. Create target Slovak localization database from the source database - checked checkboxes to transfer UDF and UDT.
2. Set LC = EUR
3. Set SC = EUR
4. Set decimal places for Exchange Rates = 5
5. Set method for Exchange rates = Indirect
6. Define manually paths for Attachments
Tool:
1. Connect via Connect screen and start use the tool
OR
1. Connect via Connect screen and then exit the tool
2. Start automatic run
The full details see in the How-To-Guide for the EC tool.
Other:
BSP:
If the BSP is activated in the source database (Administration - System Initialization - Company details - Accounting tab) it is necessary to activate the functionality in the target company manually by checking the respective checkbox.
This would allow to successfully transfer of the BSP setup from source to target database.
Dunning levels and Dunning terms:
The field "effective after" was not mandatory in version 2004 C. However in version 2007 A the field status is changed and should be filled in order to successfully transfer the Dunning levels and Dunning terms.
Down Payment Clearing account
The G/L account on BP Master Data was not mandatory in version 2004 C. However in version 2007 A the field status is changed and is mandatory.
For certain customers it might be a problem to update all Business Partners Master Data manually so for mass update of the fields it is required to create CSN message to GSC with request to correct database because of the preparation of the database for Euro Conversion.
Inventory accounts definition:
Some of the accounts for accounting entries for posting of stock relevant transactions changed the status to mandatory accounts, for example: Expense account OITW.ExpensesAc
Sales credit account OITW.ARCMAct
For certain customers it might be a problem to update whole definition of inventory relevant postings manually so for mass update of the fields it is required to create CSN message to GSC with request to correct database because of the preparation of the database for Euro Conversion.
Step operation mode:
The step window for each step contains one of the following three data transfer actions as well as other information:
u2022 Transfer updates: For each run, the tool transfers the updates relevant to the transferred data and delta data from the source company to the target company.
u2022 Transfer delta data: For each run, the tool skips the existing transferred data in the target company and transfers only the delta data.
u2022 Replace all data: For each run, the tool removes all the previously transferred data from the target company and transfers all the data from the source company again. If you update the transferred data in the target company, rerun overwrites the previously transferred data. We recommend that you do the updates in the source company before you rerun the step. -
Euro Conversion -Slovakia(or other countries)
Dear Gurus,
Anybody who has experience in Euro conversion ,send me some u201CConceptual Documentationu201D for the Euro migration .At the moment , I am basing my working plan on SAP documentation.
It would be very kind of you if you can pass on the conversion plan(such as methodology, planning,approaches) or any kind of documentation which would be relevant for the Euro conversion.
Your help is highly appreciated and remembered.
Thanks in advance,
VenHi Oliver,
I'd suggest you to read this note '1038292 - Collective note for Euro changeover in Slovakia' with the attached notes as well. It describes SAP recommendations on this issue.

EURO Conversion (SK) - Condition currency - exchange rate determination
Hi All,
After EURO conversion in Slovakia, in SD we faced the following issue:
SK Sales Org. sells products, services to HU.
The document currency is HUF, the sales org. curreny is EUR.
The condition currency is EUR, the condition value is in HUF. (It isanual condition. KOMV-KSTEU = C)
During condition value determination system reads EUR/HUF exchage rate - direct reading, instead of HUF/EUR.
I found in note 123298 that is SAP standard operation, because in case of EURO system reads direct exchage rate.
Is there any experince regarding similar EURO conversation problem? Client would prefer indirect HUF/EUR exchage rate reading. (The reason is simple. It has affiliates in HU as well and there is slight differEnce between HUF/EUR and EUR/HUF.)
(Exchage rate type 'M' is configured as inverse.)
All hits & tips are appriciated.
Thanks in advance.
Rgds,
AnettHello Srinath & Lakshmipathi,
I tested the indirect quote as well. The result is the same, system applies EUR /HUF exchange rate.
I think the background is the following logic:
- company currency: EUR
- document currency: HUF
- condition currency: EUR again.
I debugged, pricing determination, the local and foreign currency is the same, moreover it is hardcoded that in case of EUR it is a direct reading in program LV61ATOP, direct read in case of EURO s hardcoded.
I clarify the alternatives with the clients, after coming back to share info, and continue or closing this issue.
I really appriciate your support.

Exchange rate maintaining program/Euro Customizing
Hi,
Can any on eplease guide me how can I maintain exchane rates with any program.Are there any available ?
DO I need to maintain exchange rates like following
USD to AED and AED to USD with direct quote
AT times I get green error Eueo customizing not maintained.There are couple of notes.Out of that one note is 135661.
It is so descriptive and confusing that one may get lost in it.I am pretty sure that many prople have come across this problem.Can anyone please suggest me the exact steps to be performed to eliminate this and what is the severity of this green error ?
SAP notes at times are crazy.Instead of suggesting good short solution they will take you round the trees..This one I mentioned is like that.
Also this notes talks of old versions.
I am using ECC 6.0
Thansk in advance
Regards,
manOOHi,
You need not worry about the OB08 entry for rate type EURO, it is needed by the system to determine the euro conversion. You will continue to update the other rate types like M, B, G with the EUR/SKK rate till 31.12.2008. Once you are on 01.01.2009, the currency of your country/company code will become EUR and you will not need to use any rate to convert to EUR.
BW will have no issues here, as it would also be using the rate type M, G, B etc for conversion till 31.12.2008. You will need to carry out the changeover steps in BI also.

Currency SEK and EURO in ME23N report are appearing as EURO values in BI
Hi Experts,
The currency Values like Swedish Krone (SEK) and Euro in ME23N report in ECC are appearing as Euro values and the amounts are aggregated to total amount in EUROS in BI report.
I have checked the Multiprovider, Infocube and DSOs, all levels have the same amount value in Euros as in BI report.
There is not currency conversions in either transformations or in the report level.
I have checked the ECC tables EKKO, EKPA nad EKBE regarding the extractor 2lis_02_scl, its Euro currency in the tables also.
Can anybody advise from where does ME23N get data as client wants the same SEK and Euro currency as in ECC in BI report.
Thanks in advance...

Error conversion Foreign curr. to local currency
HI experts,
Can you please let me know the solution for the below error which i found during loading Datasource
2LIS_11_VAITM for the cube sales overview
*Under :*
Data Package 1 ( 2637 Records ) : Errors occurred
Update rules ( 2637 -> 566 Records ) : Errors occurred

*Record 237 :Error conversion foreign curr. -> local curr.: 0000007470 20090123 GBP -> EUR*
Please provide solution for the above error?
Thanks,
Hameed.Hi Hameed,
check the TCURR table on both the BW and R/3 side.
Then if the GBP to EURO conversion is not maintained then make an entry in the TCURR table.
If the entry is there and not maintained then maintain with correct ratio by changing the entry.
then load the data ..
May it solve your problem..

Dear all,
I have a customer for exports whose currency has been mentioned as USD in the customer master.
The condition record for PR00 however has been maintained in UAE DHs.
all other exchange rates etc have been maintained. While creating the order I am changing the defaulted UAE Dhs Price with USD value. When I am entering the order it is giving a message " Pricing/euro: Attn. Euro customizing not maintained" The transaction however proceeds fine.

Exchange rate customizing - SKK/EUR
As Slovakia will be joining the Euro area on 01.01.2009, I did the
currency customizing as explained in OSS Note 1231768.
In this note is mentioned to one time add the official fixed exchange rate using transaction OB08, with
validity date 01.01.1800
My problem is that our datawarehouse department needs to use the exchange rate added in OB08 with
the most recent validity date. In terms of date, the most recent rate will be the one from December and the rate will not be correct for their tools (as the correct one will have validity date 01.01.1800).
My question is can I add another line in OB08 with the official rate and validity date
01.01.2009? What are the potential impacts?
Many thanks for your help,
Regards,
BenHi,
You need not worry about the OB08 entry for rate type EURO, it is needed by the system to determine the euro conversion.

Once you are on 01.01.2009, the currency of your country/company code will become EUR and you will not need to use any rate to convert to EUR.

Difference between vendor open items and vendor balance
Hi all,
I have the following problem: When I display open items for a vendor with a special general ledger code, it happens that for some vendors, the total of these open items do not equal the vendor balance concerning this special GL code.
Or in other words, the sum of BSIK and BSAK entries are not equal to the totals in table LFC3.
I identified SAP standard program RFEWA003, that gives me exactly these differences, but how can I correct the entry in LFC3?
The difference only occurs in the current fiscal year and is in the carryforward amount of LFC3. I checked the totals of debits and credits for the current year which are 100% correct.
Our last fiscal year was shortened (only 11 months). Could this be the reason?
How to correct LFC3 entries? Any correction program existing that is not related to Euro conversion?
Thanks for your appreciated help,
andie.m
Edited by: andie.m on Jul 2, 2009 2:49 PMHi Michael,
Thanks for your answer, but I tried already the carry forward. It just says there is nothing to be treated.
I thought there might be a special carry forward transaction for special general ledger accounts, but it does not seem.
Any other ideas?
Thanks for your help.

Customer Balance but no open items
We have a problem where, during Euro conversion, a customer's account was not handled properly. Now, each year we have a balance on the customer account but I have no outstanding open items. I want to clear this customer account and close it but can't. I cannot reverse the problem documents as they are pre-EURO conversion so the system won't let me.
If I do F-02, F-32, F-30 etc it clears the balance but I get left with an outstanding open item. Once I process the open item, I get the balance back. I need to clear the balance. Anyone got any ideas how I can do this?
I'm in 4.7
TIA
MitchHi Mitchell,
Your best bet is to go back to the Euro Conversion time. Check the Euro conversion account. It is likely to be 9999999.... depending on your G/L numbering format. There is the likelihood that the balance outstanding on the customer's account is sitting in this Euro Conversion account. Once you have identified this, then you would have to use transaction code <b>F-30</b>(Post With Clearing) , selecting radio button "<b>Transfer posting with clearing</b>" to post between the affected Customer and the Euro Conversion Account. This should clear the outstanding balance in the Customer's account.
I hope the above helps.
