New Currency CNH

[Former Member]

Hello all,

My company wants to do the bank reconciliation (tcode FF.5) in CNH trough a MT940 file.

We have two problems:

1. the bank account in SAP and all the postings are in CNY;

2. SAP doesn´t support the currency CNH.

How can we proceed to solve this issue? Which are the steps and impacts to create the CNH currency in SAP, because this is not supported by SAP?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Based on currency keys only we can maintain.

I think below path may be help to you.

SPRO --> SAP Netweaver -- General settings ---- currencies --- check currency codes.

Thank you.

Also the Currency Class has to be assigned to the Bank account in Navigation Path--->Make Global Settings for Electronic bank statement--->Assign Bank accounts to Transaction types.

Hello Nitin!

Thanks for your reply! If the translation ratio is not 1CNH:1CNY how can i solve the issue? I have to mantain the exchange rate to CNH in the OB08?

Hi Ana,

I don't think you will be able to maintain the exchange rate between CNH & CNY currency as ISO code CNH does not exist in the system. You will get an error which would state the currency key CNH does not exist in table TCURC.

I checked & found that normally 1 CNY= 1CNH.

Hope it helps you in taking the informed decison.

Hi Ana Serra,

The Issue can be handled by Creating Currency Classes in Electronic Bank statement Configuration. You don't need to create a Currency Code CNH for the same.

1. Currency classes is defined if you import bank statements containing currency key (CNH in this case) that is different from the ISO currency keys which SAP delivers with its standard system. So you can define a currency class say CNH in the EBS Configuration.

2. The Next step would be defining the currency classes by assigning the alternative currencies within a currency class to a currency that corresponds to the SAP currency key. i.e.Currency would be CNY & Alternative Currency would be CNH.

By doing this assignment SAP will be able to process the Keys (CNH) which is provided by the Bank.

I hope 1 CNH =1 CNY.

Hi Ana,

Hope you have maintained the combination as below:

Also you have assigned this currency class to the Bank account in Navigation Path--->Make Global Settings for Electronic bank statement--->Assign Bank accounts to Transaction types.

Hi Ana,

The error may be due to two reasons:

1. Primary Reason: Check the format of the file being uploaded using FF_5. This error is primarily caused due to erroneous File format.

2. Secondary Reason: Maintain the CNH key using T-code OY03,Then upload the bank statement. Hope it helps
