Setting Country Currency

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have created a new country under

SPRO -> SapNetWeaver -> General Settings -> Set Countries -> Define Countries in mySAP System

There are two currency fields which can be set:

- Index-Based Currency (T005-CURIN)

- Hard Currency (T005-CURHA)

Now, I need to set the country currency (T005-WAERS) which is now blank.

Can I know how can I set this field ?

Thanks.

Hi Prasanth,

I understand that T500W is the table for which the country currencies is stored.

However, if I don't know about this table, how can I find out which table needs to be maintained ?

I am using a currency (USD) which is already present in the currency table.

The problem now is how do i link this currency to the newly created country i.e. T005-WAERS is populated with USD. T005-WAERS is currently blank.

hi

goto SE16 and enter the table name as T005 and from the list select WAERS and in the following screen enter the country in the field "land1" example for india enter "IN" and in the field "waers" ie country currency enter the required currency

Hi,

Setting Country Currency,

The currency table must have entries for all currencies which occur in your business transactions.

Standard settings

In the SAP standard recipient system, all currencies are defined according to the international ISO standard.

SAP recommendation

SAP recommends that you use the ISO standard for your additional entries.

If your entries do not correspond to the ISO standard, you will not be able to use data exchange in international communication (e.g. bank clearing transactions).

Actions

1. Check the currency entries for completeness.

2. Add the missing currency entries as required.

3. Use the ISO standard for your additional entries.
