Simulation exchange rates

[former_member829997]

Hello experts,

We have created an extended version (Y15 "Actual at budget rates") to be able to do an fx simulation applying the Budget exchange rates to the actual figures.

Once we have created the new version using as reference the actual (standart) version, we wanted to introduce the exchange rates linked to the new category but the exchanges rates app in fiori does not allow us to select the version.

How can we inform the budget rates on the new extended version Y15 in the AVG and CLO rate types?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Fernando,

in any translation method, you can assign exchange rate (ER) indicator.

The ER indicator is assigned to a ER type. This assignment is dependent on the ER special version. You can maintain this assignment via T-Code CXD2.

For example, you can set Y15 as version in global settings and enter CXD2 and then you assign ER indicator C to ER type CLO1. Then you can maintain budget rates for ER type CLO1.

In addition to this: Imagine that the requirement is to report prior year actuals at current year actuals rates. How would you perform that? I see 2 possibilities:

- Create a solution, more ore less as you describe it whith an extension version with specific rates containing the rates of next year (however, this means that the currency conversion has to be re-run over reported figures after a year.

- Create as separate version where you copy the data of prior year to current year and use current year rates there.

Do you see another solution?

Kind regards,

Hi Robert,

Yes. If you already have the data, you can do as you described in option 2. You can also consider using plan version where you can configure a consolidation cycle and run all tasks for all periods using option Bundle in Remaining Periods in Data Monitor.
