You can use this report to convert the document currency of open documents such as sales orders, quotations, scheduling agreements and contracts. You would use it, for example, to change the local currency to EUROs.
Caution
Partially billed orders can only be converted to EUROs. In the billing plan for these orders, the currency for the deadlines that have already been billed is converted into EUROs.
Prerequisites
Before you convert to EUROs, all the settings in Customizing for a currency changeover have to be changed to EUROs. For partially billed orders, the currency that you wish to change must be one that may be converted to EUROs.
Restrictions for Converting Partially Billed Orders to EUROs:
Once you have changed the currency of partially billed sales orders to EUROs, you cannot change the currency again, even back to the original currency.
If the document that you wish to convert already contains billing documents, these must be forwarded to Financial Accounting before the document is converted to EUROs. The system checks this automatically and issues an appropriate message.
Once you have changed the currency, billing documents that were billed in the original currency can no longer be cancelled.
Small differences in rounded amounts might occur (for example, in the statistical and credit values).
You cannot change the currency of documents with down payments that have already been billed.
Selection
- Old/new currency
- If you specify the original document currency in the Original currency field, the report only converts the currency of documents with the same document currency as you enter in this field.
- If you don’t make an entry in the Original currency field, and enter EURO in the New currency field, then the report only selects documents with a currency that is participating in the EMU.
Note
This report only works if the settings in Customizing have been maintained correctly. If no settings are made in Customizing, documents from all currencies will be converted to EUROs. In this case, we recommend that you first run the report online, which enables you to check which documents have been selected and to ensure that only those documents will be converted that are in a currency participating in the changeover.
- Program Control
- You can run the program either online or in the background.
- If you run the report online, once you have selected the documents, the system displays a list of open documents from which you can choose the ones that should be converted. You can also terminate the program after it has selected the documents. If you run the report in the background, the system changes the currency for all the selected documents without issuing a list beforehand.
- Internal technical note about the program
- Invisible parameter: If you start the report using transaction WEWU (Euro Workbench) with SUBMIT REPORT, instead of entering the indicator for the document category, you can enter the document category directly in the TRVOG parameter.
- Document category:
Sales orders: TRVOG = '0'
Quotations: TRVOG = '2'
Scheduling agreements: TRVOG = '3'
Contracts: TRVOG = '4'
These entries override the indicator for the different document categories.
