Documentation

Definition

Unique identification of various currencies that exist in parallel within a data record.

• Within a data basis, a currency ID can be linked with an entity, such as a characteristic. A corresponding currency (currency key) can then be derived for the currency ID.
• Alternatively, the currency for a currency ID (such as consolidation currency) can be entered when a business transaction is created, or when a function is performed.

Use

For each currency-bearing entity, SAP provides the corresponding currency IDs. If you have user-defined characteristics, you can create additional currency IDs for these.

Dependencies

The transaction currency (currency of the object document) always has the fixed currency ID 00. No fixed currency IDs can be set for any other currency IDs.

The amount vectors or amount key figures in all line items and totals records contain both the currency ID and the currency key.

The entity from which the currency key is read must be stored as an attribute in the line item or totals record, or must be directly derivable from other attributes in the record by navigation.
