Financial Budget information in S4 in Local and Global Currency

[johngarbaciak]

To compare financials at local and Parent Co Rates.  Is this captured in BPC in the Cloud?  Loading Plan data into S4 is limited. Need MORE!

Hi John - you can use the import financial plan data app to upload in company code currency. You have to use a different template than the one provided in the app itself. My colleague unearthed this process and template somewhere in a piece of help documentation I believe. Attached is an example we used for testing, and it did indeed upload in South African Rand, which was the company code currency for company 6410.

Hi John.

You are able to switch between the global currency and company code currency in the Plan/Actual Design Studio Report, where you can view the plan data. In addition, you can export both currencies to an excel file via the reporting app. Not sure if this answers your question or not.

Best,

Riwa

Yes Clare that is thought provoking - the disparity between on-premise and Cloud.......

Using Import Financial Plan app only allows a global currency for all companies. We do not have BPC. Is there anyone out there with BPC for the Cloud?

I had a feeling that with 1811 SAP were going to introduce the ability to run more currency types in S4HC (like you can set up in On Prem) - though it was quite some time ago that they told me this, and roadmaps can change...

Can you clarify? You can set a separate plan rate (exchange rate type 'P') - or you might well be able to load plan data on both local and global currency simultaneously (haven't tried this so not sure if it over-rides the system rate)
