Documentation

Definition

Currency which is used as the update currency for the summary data in the general ledger. The currency corresponds either to the document currency or to the local currency.

The only exception can be with clearing entries in a third currency. The item currency for a clearing entry is always identical to the item currency of the entry to be cleared and can therefore be different from both the document currency and the local currency.

Examples

You post an invoice in DEM in a company code with USD as its local currency. The clearing entry in the payment document has the item currency key DEM and is therefore different from the document currency FRF and the local currency USD.
