In this IMG activity, you specify the following user settings for the information system:

  • Basic data
  • Planning time frame
  • Report time frame
  • Report currency
  • Other information, such as version and actual valuation

You can store the basic data, planning and report time frames as user- specific or standard settings. The standard settings are valid for all users without user-specific settings.

You thus determine the default values for the report selection screens.

These settings are only valid for reports in components within Controlling or Cost Element Accounting.

In the basic data, you can set the following default values:

  • Controlling area
  • Report objects, such as cost center groups, statistical key figure groups, activity type groups, cost element groups, or individual values or intervals for cost centers.

You can determine the planning time frame as follows:

  • Fiscal year

    The fiscal year can be the current year, previous year, or a year that you defined.

    If you choose No profile, the system takes the user-profile parameters for the selection.

    Note

    Maintain the User profile as follows:

    Choose System -> User defaults -> User data and the Parameters tab index.

  • Period

    The period can be the current period, previous period, or a period interval that you specified.

    You can decide on the interval from period one to the current, or previous period. The current period, or the previous period is therefore defaulted for reports that you do not run during a period interval.

    If you choose No profile, the system uses the user-profile for parameter selection.

You can specify the report time frame as follows:

  • Fiscal year

    This can be the current fiscal year, the previous year, or an interval that you specify.

    If you choose No profile, the system uses the user-profile for parameter selection.

  • Period

    The period can be the current period, previous period, or a period interval that you specified.

    The period can be the interval between period one to the current or previous period. The current or previous period is therefore defaulted for reports that you do not run during a period interval.

    If you choose No profile, the system uses the user-profile for parameter selection.

You can store the report currency, either user-defined, or as a standard setting. The standard setting is valid for all users without user-defined settings.

You use the report currency to specify which currency is used for Report Painter reports, line item reports or planning overviews, and to determine how the currency is translated.

The settings are valid in Controlling and Cost Element Accounting for all planning overviews and Report Painter reports that have the Cost, Secondary cost, Actual cost, and Variable cost key figures, in which the currency is not defaulted

In line item reports for Controlling, the settings are valid for the following columns: Cost in report currency, Variable costs in report currency, and Fixed costs in report currency.

These settings are valid, regardless of the component used to define the report currency.

You can display reports

  • in Cost Element Accounting in:
    • The company code currency
    • The group currency
    • The controlling area currency
    • A target currency that you specified
  • The Overhead Cost Controlling components in:
    • The controlling area currency
    • The object currency
    • The transaction currency
    • A target currency that you specified

In totals reports using report currency, if you call up another report using the report-report interface then the system displays both reports in the same currency.

When you enter a target currency, specify which reference currency is to be used for the currency translation. In Cost Element Accounting, the reference currency can be the company code currency, group currency, or controlling area currency. In the Controlling components, it can be the controlling area currency, the object currency, or the transaction currency.

You also need to enter the following:

  • Key date for translation
    • Translation for each exchange rate date
    • Translation on a fixed date
    • Period-specific translation on the last day of each period
  • The exchange rate type that you require

    You can use the exchange rate type to differentiate between buying rate, bank selling rate, or the average rate.

To display reports in euro for all users, for example, you need to specify this in the standard settings.

Further entries

  • Versions

    Default the plan version that you require for the reports.

  • Actual valuation

    You enter settings for either legal, group, or profit center valuation.

Requirements

You need to process the Currencies IMG activity in the Implementation Guide under Global Settings.
