Definition

Characteristic in currency translation. This characteristic is a subassignment for recording currency translation differences.

Use

Use this characteristic if you want to record currency translation differences with totals records.

There are two types of translation differences:

  • Temporal differences: Here the value in group currency changes exclusively because of exchange rate differences between two points in time.
  • Transaction differences reflect changes to the value in group currency that are incurred from the changes to the local currency value.

Temporal differences can be disclosed separately.

Dependencies

Separate disclosure of temporal translation differences is only helpful for cumulative translations.
