Use

You can define the following user settings for the info system:

  • Master data
  • Planning period
  • Reporting period
  • Report currency
  • Other entries such as the version and actual valuation

You can define the master data, planning-, and reporting periods either as user-specific or as a default setting. The default settings are used for all users for whom settings are not defined.

You define the default values in the selection screens for the reports.

These settings are only valid for reports for the relevant component in Controlling or Cost Element Accounting.

Default values are possible for the following parameters in the master data:

  • Controlling area
  • Report objects such as groups, individual values or ranges for cost centers, statistical key figures, activity types, and cost elements.

You can define the following for the planning period :

  • Fiscal year

    The fiscal year can be the current fiscal year, the previous year or another fiscal year that you specified.

    If you choose No parameter, the system transfers the user parameters.

    Note

    You maintain user parameters as follows:

    Choose System -> User Parameters -> Own Data, and the Parameter tab page.

  • Period

    The period can be the current period, the previous period or another period range that you specified.

    You can also define the range from period 1 up to the current period or the previous period. For reports that you do not want to run for a period range, the current or previous period is set.

    If you choose No parameter, the system transfers the user parameters.

You can define the reporting period as follows:

  • Fiscal year

    The fiscal year can be the current fiscal year, the previous fiscal year or a range that you have specified.

    If you choose No parameter, the system transfers the user parameters.

  • Period

    The period can be the current period, the previous period or another period range that you specified.

    You can also define the range from period 1 up to the current period or the previous period. For reports that you do not want to run for a period range, the current or previous period is set.

    If you choose No parameter, the system transfers the user-specific parameters.

You can define the reporting currency as user-specific or as a default setting. The default setting applies for all users for whom settings are not specified.

You use the report currency/> to define the currency in which the system displays report painter reports, line item reports or planning overviews, and how currency conversion takes place.

The settings are valid in Controlling and Cost Element Accounting for all planning overviews and report painter reports that use the measures costs, secondary costs, actual costs , variable costs, and for which the currency is not specified.

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

The settings are valid, irresepective of the component in which you defined the report currency.

Reports can be issued in the following currencies:

  • In Cost Element Accounting:
    • Company code currency
    • Group currency
    • Controlling area currency
    • A specified target currency
  • In Controlling components:
    • Controlling area currency
    • Object currency
    • Transaction currency
    • A specified target currency

In summary reports that use the report currency, if you call up an additional report on the report-report interface, the system displays both reports in the same currency.

If you entered a target currency, you must enter the reference currency for the currency conversion. In Cost Element Accounting, the reference currency is the company code currency, the group currency or the controlling area currency. In the Controlling components, the reference currency can be the controlling area currency, the object currency or the transaction currency.

Otherwise, enter the following:

  • Key date for conversion
    • Conversion at each current exchange rate date
    • Conversion at fixed date
    • Period-specific conversion on last day of each period
  • The desired exchange rate type

    You can use the exchange rate type to distinguish between the buying-, selling- and average rates

For example, if you want to issue reports in EURO for all users, you must do so under Define default settings.

Further Entries

  • Versions

    You set the planning version in which you want to create reports.

  • Actual evaluation

    You set either legal-, group- or profit center evaluation.

Requirements

In the Implementation Guide (IMG) you must edit the currencies section under Global Settings.
