Use

In this IMG activity, you specify the currencies to be applied in the leading ledger. You can make the following settings for each company code:

  • The local currency (as company code currency) is specified in the company code settings.
  • You can define one or two additional local currencies that you store per company code parallel to the first local currency.

For additional local currencies you define the following data per company code:

  • Currency type

    The currency type defines the role of the parallel currency. A distinction is made between the following types of currencies:

  • Exchange rate type for the translation

    The exchange rate type determines the exchange rate, which is stored in the system, is applied in calculating the additional amount fields. As in the case of the local currency, you can use exchange rate type M (average rate) or any other exchange rate type.

  • Base currency for the translation

    The calculation of the amounts in parallel currencies can be determined using the document currency of the local currency.

  • Translation date

    The rate for translation amounts can be based on the translation date, the document date, or the posting date.

Caution

You cannot change the currency type for company codes that are already productive.
