Activate Multiple Functional Currencies only

If this check box is selected, the CRI run will only prepare a Standard currency system for two or more functional currencies.

Note: After the CRI run, this check box will become unavailable.

Retain current rates after conversion

During conversion, the CI rates are copied to the Currency Rates (tcmcs008) table. If this check box is selected, the currency rates that were effective before the conversion are also copied to the Currency Rates (tcmcs008) table. In the process, these rates receive the latest introduction/actualization date.

If this check box is cleared, only the CI rates are copied to the Currency Rates (tcmcs008) table. In the Currency Rates (tcmcs0108m000) session, the CI rates then become the effective rates after conversion.

Note: 

• The value of this field is defaulted from the selected cluster. You can change this setting, and then run the CI Process (tccri7203m000) session.
• This option is available for internal currency conversions only.
