Use
In this IMG activity, you make settings for an accounting system, defining how the currency translation between two currency IDs is to be carried out, for example from transaction curency (as base currency) to accounting system currency. For each currency translation rule, you specify which exchange rate type (such as buying rate, bank selling rate or average rate) the currency translation is made with.
If you have not yet defined a currency translation rule, the system will automatically create a standard currency translation rule when you call up this IMG activity. In the standard currency translation rule, all currency IDs valid in the accounting system are translated from the transaction currency. All you need to do is to save this rule. At the same time, you can also change the standard currency translation rule.
Caution
If you have not defined a currency translation rule for a currency ID, this currency will not be posted. The system will simply post the amount 0. You should therefore ensure that all currency IDs valid in your accounting system are translated.
In an accounting system, those currency IDs are available that are assigned to a characteristic used in the accounting system. These could be the following currency IDs, for example:
- Accounting system currency (as the accounting system always has to be available)
- Currency of the legal entity (if the legal entity is used in the accounting system)
Requirements
You have defined the exchange rate types and where necessary your (additional) currency IDs.
Standard settings
Activities
- Check whether the standard currency translation rule displayed in the system corresponds to your requirements.
- If necessary, change the currency translation rule.
- Save the currency translation rule.
