Customizing Settings (TR-LO)

Customizing Settings (TR-LO)

Prerequisites

Before you can carry out the contract currency changeover, you also need to make some general settings which do not only apply to the Loans component. If you are already using other SAP R/3 modules, you may already have made some of the settings detailed in steps 1. and 2. of the procedure.

Procedure

1. Set up the currencies for the changeover to the euro: In R/3 Customizing, choose Global Settings ® Currencies.

For more information, refer to the SAPNet documentation under the menu item Information (setting: International) ® Media ® Media by topic ® EURO ® Literature ® Customizing the Currency Tables

Define the participating currencies and the euro in R/3 Customizing under Treasury Management ® Basic Functions ® Euro Currencies ® Define participating countries for euro changeover.
Define the flow types for adjustment postings and currency swap postings.

The maintenance view in R/3 Customizing is under Treasury Management ® Loans ® Transaction Management ® Flow Types ® Define flow types.

Sample Customizing entries delivered with the system:

Flow type	Name	Flow category	Calculation category	Activity ID	Activity category _}
0910	A_Increase disbursement commitment euro	EUA+	NOOP	07	0023
0915	A_Reduce disbursement commitment euro	EUA-	NOOP	08	0024
0920	A_Increase remaining capital euro	EUR+	NOOP	07	0023
0925	A_Reduce remaining capital euro	EUR-	NOOP	08	0024
0930	A_Increase interest calculation capital euro	EUZ+	AA	07	0023
0935	A_Reduce interest calculation capital euro	EUZ-	SS	08	0024
0940	A_Currency swap position inflow	2UBZ	NOOP	07	0023
0945	A_Currency swap position outflow	2UBA	NOOP	08	0024
0950	A_Euro changeover: Credit	EUUB	NOOP	08	0024
0955	A_Euro changeover: Debit	EUUB	NOOP	07	0023
0960	A_Currency swap for discount: Outflow	-	NOOP	08	0024
0965	A_Currency swap for discount: Inflow	-	NOOP	07	0023

For the currency swap of the position, you need to set the flow categories to 2UBA and 2UBZ in Customizing. During the changeover, the system changes these flow categories to EUUB. You need to make the settings in this way to enable the system to determine the flow types automatically. The flow categories are replaced to prevent the flows from being taken into account for evaluations.

Before the changeover, you need to assign the flow types defined in step 3 to the application function.

In R/3 Customizing, choose Treasury ® Treasury Management ® Loans ® Transaction Management ® Condition Types ® Define condition groups.

For the contract changeover, assign all the above flow types to the application number (Appl.func.) 850. To reset the contract changeover, assign all the flow types with the flow categories EUUB, 2UBA and 2UBZ to the application function 851.

Create a currency swap clearing account for the euro transfer posting for the loan position and the open items.

In the application menu, choose Financial accounting ® General ledger ® Master records ® Create.

Define account determination for the flow types.

In R/3 Customizing, choose Treasury ® Treasury Management ® Loans ® Functions ® Accounting ® General Ledger Update ® Define account determination.
