Documentation

Definition

Costs and payments incurred in a WBS element are managed in controlling area currency and in the object currency for the WBS element. When you create a WBS element, the system defaults the currency entered in the project definition as the object currency. You can change the WBS element object currency in the organization data for the WBS element. However, you cannot change the object currency once costs and/or payments have been posted to the WBS element.

Dependencies

When changing the WBS element object currency, you must note the following:

• If the controlling area and company code are managed in the same currency, you can stipulate a different object currency for the WBS element.
• When you are conducting cross-company code cost accounting for company codes with different company code currencies, you must always use the object currency as the object currency. You can only change the WBS element object currency indirectly, by changing the company code.
