Controlling And Object Area Currency??

[Former Member]

Hi..

Can anyone tell me the difference between the controlling area currency and the object area currency?

And please tell me the transaction code and the table (which stores both currencies)in which I can see the controlling area and the object area currency for a particular controlling area?

Thanks

Hi Subhash,

<b>Controlling Arra Currency</b>:

The currency type of the controlling area (under Basic data) is used to control which currency is allowed as the controlling area currency and whether this currency can differ from the currency of the company codes assigned to that controlling area. You can use the All currencies indicator (under Control indicators) to specify whether the values are updated only in the controlling area currency or also in the transaction currency and the object currency.

<b>Object Area Currency</b>:

Used in the financial position object and the balance object. The object currency and the reporting currency do not have to be identical. The accounting currency is predefined by SAP, and is a defining characterist ic. A financial position object can only be posted in the object currency. For balance objects there are two possibilities: If the transaction is a multiple currency transaction then the balance object has multiple currency legs (special balance subobjects) that are assigned to the object currency as defining characteristics. If there is just one currency (in addition to a reporting currency possibly derived from it) in the balance object then the object currency is the descriptive characteristic for the main balance subobject

Please also check this tables.

TKA01 - Controlling areas

TKA02 - Controlling area assignment

KEKO - Product-costing header

KEPH - Cost components for cost of goods manuf.

KALO - Costing objects

KANZ - Sales order items - costing objects

Hope this will help.
