Euro Workbench 

Purpose

The Euro Workbench groups together all the areas that have to be changed over during the dual currency phase, and makes it convenient for you to plan and execute the conversion. The SAP R/3 Workflow functions support you in this.

You can plan the changeovers of the individual areas independently of each other for specific key dates and assign people to be responsible for making the changeover. The system informs the people you assign in advance of the planned key date. They can then carry out the planned conversions using the Euro Workbench.

As the coordinator, you can use the interface to obtain an overview of the status of the project during the conversion phase.

Prerequisites

Two groups of people are involved in the currency changeover process:

Process Flow

  1. The EMU coordinators plan the changeover using the Euro Workbench. The data they define includes the date of the changeover for a particular area and the responsible EMU agent.

    2. See: Preparing for the Currency Conversion

  2. The system informs the EMU agents at the right time, and they then carry out the changeover with the help of the Euro Workbench.

    3. See: Executing the Currency Conversion

  3. The EMU coordinators check and confirm the changeovers that have been carried out.

See: Checking and Acknowledging the Currency Conversion

Result
