Function documentationCommodity Position Overview

 

This program provides a quantity-related overview of commodity price exposures.

The system differentiates between the following reporting groups: market price exposure, contract price exposure and material stock exposure. Market price exposures and contract price exposures are determined for commodity transactions and financial transactions. Material stock exposures are derived from commodity transactions:

  • Contract and market price exposures from commodity transactions (see also Raw Exposures from Contracts, Raw Exposures from Purchase Orders and Sales Orders)

    Market price exposures from commodity transactions are determined based on the market price rules of the risk profiles that are being used.

  • Contract and market price exposures from financial transactions (such as commodity forwards, commodity futures and commodity swaps)

  • Market price exposures from material stock (see also Raw Exposures from Material Stock)

    Material stock exposures do not contain any market price information themselves. For this reason, market price exposures are also derived on the basis of market price rules of the risk profiles that are being used.

Exposures from commodity transactions and material stock are transferred using the interface for the Integration of Logistics with Treasury and Risk Management, and then entered as raw exposures and sub raw exposures.

This program is performed on the basis of a defined risk profile.
