Defining the conversion cluster

Use the CI Clusters (tccri7101s000) session to specify general cluster information, such as:

  • The conversion type (internal or external)
  • The new currency system
  • The new reference currency
  • The ledger accounts to which the rounding differences must be posted.
  • The rate determination and translation methods by cluster company.
Conversion-cluster companies

When you create a conversion cluster, LN generates a list of cluster companies to be converted. A conversion cluster includes all companies within a logistic area. Archive companies are also included. See "Logistic areas" under "Currency Systems and Company Structures."

LN generates the list of conversion cluster based on the company structure to which the current company belongs. The cluster companies include all the companies that have a link with the current company.

Important!: Before you perform currency initialization, the multisite setup must be correct, otherwise the data that results from the conversion can be corrupt.

  • To view the generated list of conversion-cluster companies, use the CI-Cluster Companies (tccri7502m000) overview session.
  • To maintain the details to be used for the internal conversion of each cluster company, use the CI-Cluster Companies (tccri7102s000) details session.
Conversion-cluster transaction currencies

Use the CI Cluster Transaction Currencies (tccri7104m000) session to indicate the (EMU) transaction currencies that must be converted to euros during external currency initialization. The session displays the ( LN generated) list of the currencies used by the cluster companies of the selected conversion cluster.
