SAP Working Capital Analytics provides the option to conduct KPI analyses across multiple company codes.

If there are two or more denominations of currency for selected company codes the system converts the data into the same currency for analysis (reporting currency).

On the Analysis Settings screen, click Show Advanced Settings to display the currency conversion options available to you. Select your required currency and then chose the exchange rate type which best suits your needs.

The two options available for the exchange rate date are as follows:

  • Key Date:

    When you select the Key Date radio button and enter a date, the reporting currency displayed in the analysis steps you chose will be converted according to the conversion rate effective on that date for your chosen currency.

  • Dynamic Date:

    When you select the Dynamic Date radio button, the currency conversion rate for your chosen currency depends on the KPIs analyzed in the analysis steps you chose as follows:
