Travel Issue

[former_member182377]

Hi Travel Experts,

when we are uploading AMEX file details in SAP for the currency BYR(Belarussian Ruble) through T-code PRCC , we are receiving errors for employees

"Overflow during currency translation for currency BYR , Transactions were moved to Table PTRV_CCC  for correction

What could be the issue here, can anyone help me here please?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Sriram

Hi Siram,

Please check your currency and exchange rate values. I suspect there's sth wrong with the multipliers. Some exchange rates are not for 1:1, but e.g. 1 Eur - 10000 Turkish lira

If those multipliers are wring - even opposite way round - you might get an overflow somewhere.

Also check the definition of BYR in your system to see whether the number of decimals expected is correct. Note that amounts are usually not stored as decimals, but in the smallest unit - the decimal point - if any - is set by the system dynamically depending on the currency definition.

Apart fron a real coding error somewhere, decimals and multipliers seem the most likely candidates for such an error.

Ah yes: working with Amex always requires thorough checks on the quality of the data they send. Thechnology is not there core competence.

Hope this helps you getting ahead a bit.

Kind regards

Sven

Just to follow on from Svens very helpful reply, there are some very important corrections that can prevent these overflow errors, please make sure you have these also.

1734719 1712962

Also: 1757133, 1758685 & 1761635 (Last two solve a slightly different dump that can occur)

In addition, it is slightly off topic but we introduced some new logic for rounding differences (the class CL_FITV_ROUNDING which can be maintained with the constant NORND in V_T706_CONST) and you might like to take a look at that as improves the rounding logic when handling CC expenses

Thanks

Hi Sriram,

Yes you have to check table TCURF for currencies translation rations and then table TCURR for exchange rates. From your screenshots I can see an entry in table TCURF for Exchange rate type 'M', FROM Currency GBP, TO Currency BYR which is fine but you need to have an entry from BYR to GBP however, in your screenshot it shows MYR to GBP and MYR (Malaysian Ringgit) is a different currency to BYR (Belarussian Ruble) . Please check this.

Thanks

In your screnshot above, I think you have to move the value in 'Dir.quot.' field to 'Indir.quot.' field unless you have maintained from GBP to BYR as direct quotation in table TCURN.

Please check this.

Hope this helps.

In the table TCURR : GBP TO BYR

From BYR to GBP

Hi Ankur,

My initial overflow problem is solved after i changed the ratio settings in the table TCURF,  thats fine. But still "Conversion from BYR to GBP is not possible" it says. do i need to maintain the entry in Tcurn table here?

Can you please help me?

Thanks

Hi

are you sure you are using the right rate type in TCURR? Check Travel Management global settings which rate type is used by travel management. Then check if TCUR* settings will fit to this.

In TCURF, you will find alternative rate type: (here: EURX)

If this is filled, TCURR will be read with rate type EURX, not with M. Normally BYR should not have alternative rate type.

TCURF must be filled both directions in a consistent way. TCURN not required.
