Currency System

The currency system applicable for the company. This value defines the method in which amounts are calculated and registered in the company.

Allowed values

Single

A currency system in which a company uses only one home currency. This home currency is also the reference currency. This currency system is especially for use for companies that operate in a single country.

Dependent

A currency system in which you can use multiple home currencies within a single company. For most entities, the financial company determines the local currency that is used. All transactions are registered in all the home currencies.

Currency rates are defined between the external currencies and the reference currency, and between the reference currency and the other home currencies. Transaction amounts are first converted into the reference currency and then the transaction amount in the reference currency is converted into the other home currencies.

Independent

A currency system in which all financial companies and logistic companies that are related to each other in the enterprise structure model use the same two or three home currencies. All transactions are registered in all the home currencies.

Currency rates are defined between the transaction currencies and all home currencies. Transaction amounts are converted directly from the transaction currency into the home currencies.

Standard

A currency system in which foreign currency transactions are translated straight from the transaction currency to the local currency, without triangulation through the reference currency. By default, reporting currencies are directly translated from the transaction currency into the reporting currency; however, reporting currencies can also be translated from the local currency.

Use Multiple Functional Currencies

If this check box is selected, you can view and process the transactions in more than one functional currency.

Many multinational corporations are required to provide reports in more than one functional currency. If this check box is selected, all three home currencies are stored against historical rates for non-monetary ledger accounts such as inventory, work-in-process, and fixed assets.

You can perform statutory (local) and corporate reporting in multiple home currencies in parallel while adhering to applicable IFRS/US GAAP standards on foreign currency translation, for example, IAS 21.
