The SAP system does not automatically revaluate your manually planned data when exchange rates change. If you have set up exchange rate changes in your system, you have to revaluate your manually planned data to achieve an up-to-date version in planning. The system provides a function with which you can revaluate plan costs as well as plan prices for cost centers with varying exchange rates.
In order for the system to revaluate your plan data, a leading currency has to be entered. The system uses the leading currency as the basis for recalculation when exchange rates change. Plan data in the leading currency remains unchanged, and the system revaluates the remaining plan values.
If you created plan records using resource planning and revaluate the values, the system ignores the leading currency for the exchange rate differences of the resource price currency.
The system calculates the value directly in all three possible database currencies from the selected currency in which the price of the resource is maintained. This ensures that the following is valid for all currencies: Value = Amount * Price / Price Unit.
For resource R, a price of 100 BRL per unit has been set up. Cost center KS (object currency DEM) in a controlling area using the currency USD receives 5 units of resource R. The transaction currency is CHF. The database currencies are DEM, CHF, and USD.
