You need carry out this activity only if:

• Archiving objects were generated in the system
• You have created your own archiving objects
• You have made the appropriate modifications to the archiving objects delivered by SAP.
  (Appropriate modification means that you have supplemented the archiving objects through tables containing currency, amount or exchange rate fields.)

During local currency conversion, the system does not convert any archives. To minimize run times, you should archive as many documents as possible prior to local currency conversion. However, you must not archive any FI documents from the current fiscal year since the system requires these documents to generate the account figures.

Following conversion, reading and reloading documents can cause problems if, for example, the amount field and the currency field are not stored in the same archive.

If you carry out evaluations that involve the access of archived documents, the results may be distorted.

Example

You archived an object with an amount of 5 DEM. The following information is stored in this object:

• Amount: 5
• Currency type: Local currency

Following conversion, the local currency is EUR. If you now read or reload this object, an amount of 5 EUR is shown because the amount is unchangeable in the object, and the local currency EUR is displayed as the currency.

The following activities can be critical in the context of local currency conversion and archiving:

• Archiving
• Reading or reloading
• Conversion

For those archiving objects that are included in the SAP standard system, table ADMI_CRIT contains information on whether:

• Reading or archiving an object can lead to problems
• Reloading the archives can lead to problems
• You can use the object in question to archive data during the current fiscal year
• You can carry out a conversion once you have archived data from the current fiscal year using this object.

If you have created your own archiving objects or modified the SAP standard objects, you must also check whether the archives are critical for these objects and maintain table ADMI_CRIT accordingly.

Archiving:

Archiving is not critical if the object does not archive any data required for the conversion.

You must not use this archiving object to archive any data from the current fiscal year if you are planning to convert your local currency during the current fiscal year, and the object is critical with regard to archiving.

Reading or reloading:

Reading or reloading an archive is non-critical if all reports and transactions display the data from the archive in the correct currency, i.e. if the relevant currencies are correctly determined and displayed.

If you set the indicators in these fields, you cannot read or reload the archive following local currency conversion. Conversion itself can however still take place.

If you defined the reading or reloading of an archiving object as critical, you can use the table of contents to read or reload the data. Prior to accessing the data, you can then establish whether the archive contains data that is affected by conversion. If, for example, the archive contains data from a company code for which USD is defined as the local currency (in other words a currency not participating in EMU) this data is not affected by conversion. This data can be read and reloaded both prior to and following local currency conversion.

If the object does not create a table of contents, the archiving program assumes all activities are critical.

Conversion:

Conversion is non-critical with regard to archiving if, within the last 450 days prior to conversion, no archives were created using this object.

If an archiving object is defined as critical for conversion, the system terminates conversion. If the object does not archive any data required for conversion, you can still carry out conversion, using the table of contents to check whether the archive content is required for conversion. If you find that the archived data is not required for the conversion, you can mark the object as being uncritical.

Activities

Table ADMI_CRIT contains all SAP standard archiving objects. Those objects that you modified or which you created yourself must be created and maintained in this table. These objects are initially shown as "not released".

Local currency conversion can be started only once all archiving objects have been released.

1. Mark the objects the indicators of which you want to maintain and then choose Change.
2. Enter the appropriate indicator and save your entries.
3. Choose Display.
4. Re-select the objects changed and choose Release.
   The system marks the changed objects as released.
