As of Release 3.0A, it is possible to use different currencies within cross-company-code cost accounting. The controlling area and the assigned company codes can have different currencies.
Different fields are available to maintain the basic data of the controlling area:
Before using the new functionality, two conditions must be met:
The new functionality for working with other company code currencies can only be used for new controlling areas. In existing controlling areas you may only change the currency type, if no productive company codes have been assigned.
You also have to adapt your user-defined batch input programs for controlling area maintenance, to supply the new fields with basic data.
The fields Currency type and Other company code currency have been included in the basic controlling area data.
You must maintain the Currency type field. The Other company currency is derived from the currency type and filled automatically. Assignment control and currency type determine values in these fields.
In existing controlling areas, the field "Currency type" is filled automatically during the first upgrade to Release 3.0.
