In this IMG activity, you determine the report currency.

The report currency can be stored as a default or as a user-specific setting. The default setting applies to all users without user-specific settings.

With the report currency, you determine the currency in which Report Painter reports or planning overviews appear and how the currency is translated.

The settings apply within Overhead Cost Controlling and Cost and Revenue Element Accounting for all planning overviews and Report Painter reports with the key figures "costs", "secondary costs", "actual costs" and "variable costs" in which the currency is not explicitly predefined. The settings are valid, regardless of which component the report currency was specified in.

Reports can appear:

  • In Cost and Revenue Element Accounting in
    • Company code currency
    • Group currency
    • Controlling area currency
    • Target currency (defined by the user)
  • In Overhead Cost Controlling in:
    • Controlling area currency
    • Object currency
    • Transaction currency
    • Target currency (defined by the user)

If you have specified a target currency, you need to define from which base currency the currency translation is to occur. In Cost and Revenue Element Accounting, the base currency can be the company code, group or controlling area currency. In the Overhead Cost Controlling components, the base currency can be the controlling area, object or transaction currency.

You can also specify whether the currency translation is to take place on the given current exchange rate date or always on a fixed date. You should also specify the required exchange rate type. This allows you to distinguish between, for example, buying rate, bank selling rate and the middle rate.
