Changeover in Overhead Cost Controlling (CO-OM) (SAP Library - European Monetary Union: Euro (CA-EUR))

Changeover in Overhead Cost Controlling (CO-OM)

Purpose

When you change over from national currencies to the Euro, all relevant currency data in the system is converted. In Overhead Cost Controlling, the SAP-R/3 System converts the following data:

Amounts in the controlling area currency
Amounts in the object currency, such as cost center, order or project currencies
Activity price units, should significant digits be lost when converting activity prices

You should ensure that reconciled data exists before and after the Euro changeover in Overhead Cost Controlling. To achieve this, SAP provides you with various Reconciliation Programs and reports, which can be executed in various phases of the changeover.

Prerequisites

For more information, see Programs for the Changeover in Overhead Cost Controlling.

Result

All relevant currency amounts have been changed over to EURO.

After the Euro changeover, you need to make some manual changes in the IMG for the Euro changeover. This is because the system does not convert certain tables.
