Use

You need to make settings here if you want to have conditions on contracts, rental objects, or contract offers that are in a currency that differs from the local currency of the company code.

Requirements

To be able to use a different currency in a company code, you have to set the Differing Condition Currency indicator for that company code in the Make Basic Settings in Company Code IMG activity.

Standard settings

Activities

For the system to be able to properly handle conditions in a foreign currency, you have to answer the following questions for the conditions of the contract, rental object, or contract offer:

  • What is the currency of the condition amount?
    You can enter the currency directly when processing conditions (if the setting for differing condition currencies was activated in the basic settings of the company code).
  • Which exchange rate is used for calculating the amount in your local currency?
    The user assigns a currency translation rule when processing the posting term (see the Define Currency Translation Rule IMG activity). The rule is then used for all conditions to which this posting term is assigned. The currency translation rule defines the following:
    • Which translation date rule is used?
      The translation date rule defines, dependent on the process, how the currency translation date is determined.
    • Which exchange rate type is used?
    • Should documents that result from the posting term have the condition currency as the transaction currency?
      (If the indicator is not set, then the currency of the condition is used only to calculate the posting amount. However, the document is posted in the local currency.)

If you need conditions in a foreign currency, then define currency translation rules and translation date rules.

Specify which currency translation rules are allowed for each contract type and each usage type. Also specify one currency translation rule as a default.
