SAP Reference IMG Transactions
ECC 6 -> SPRO -> SAP NetWeaver -> General Settings -> Currencies
OY03 -> Currencies
All related information about the currencies codes, like the description, the relation to the ISO code, and within this relation which is the ‘Primary’ currency.
OY04 -> Decimal Places for Currency Codes
In this transaction the decimal places for the currencies get defined, that do not have two decimals. Changes to this table are VERY dangerous in a productive system. This is also mentioned if the transaction is called up.
OB07 -> Currency Exchange Rate Types
Definition of the different exchange rate types, with information like the ‘reference currency’, ‘inversion allowed’ and ‘Fixed exchange rate type’.
OB08 / TCURMNT -> Currency Exchange Rates
Customizing of the exchange rates itself, for the defined date, ‘direct or indirect’ and so on.
OBBS -> Currencies: Translation Ratios
Transaction to customize the ratios for the different ‘exchange rate types’ per date and ‘exchange rate pair’. Also the ‘alternative exchange rate type’ can be set up here for/from a specified date.
OBD6 -> Rate Spreads (Type G and B)
Definition of the ‘Spreads’ related to the ‘buying’ and ‘selling’ rate. (‘buying’ and ‘selling’ rates get used in the ‘stock exchange’ and the 'treasury’ for example).
ONOT -> Standard Quotation
This view defines the ‘standard notation’ for the different currency pairs. This has also an influence to the selection of an exchange rate in the case it has to be calculated (two entered values or ‘basis-currency’).
OPRF -> Direct/Indirect Quotation Prefix
Defines the Prefix for the ‘Indirect’ Quotation, which
has ‘only’ and influence for the ‘external’ view of the used exchange rate.
Notes:
The important transactions for the ‘Currency Translation’ you need to take note in customizing are the OY04, OB07, OB08 and OBBS.
Many of the issue in the ‘currency translation’ area can be checked and solved by the above important transactions.
