Preparing for the Currency Conversion 

Prerequisites

You want to prepare for converting an object as an EMU coordinator.

Procedure

1. Call up the Euro Workbench Graphic.

On this screen, you can call up all the functions required to convert all objects affected. The first row of pushbuttons (client, distribution chains, etc.) represents the conversion level. The second row (master data, price calculations etc.) represents the related conversion functions. These functions depend on the level selected.

2. Create a worklist for carrying out the currency conversions. To do this, first select the required conversion level (e.g. site) and the required conversion function (e.g. calculations) and choose Create.

A maintenance screen appears. The fields displayed on this screen depend on the conversion object. For the combination of distribution chain/price calculation, for example, the fields Sales organization, Distribution channel and Merchandise category are displayed. This grouping together ensures that planned conversions for the price calculations in a distribution chain are carried out together later on for all the articles in a merchandise category.

The screen also contains fields that are the same for all objects, such as Conversion date, Currency (before), Currency (after).

You can make use of a powerful search engine for selecting objects to be converted by choosing Suggest entries.
  1. Set the date of the changeover for a particular area and the responsible EMU agent (for example).
  2. Save your entries.

Result

You have set both the date of the changeover for the selected object and the responsible EMU agent (for example).
