Currency Conversion

[#1]

Hi,

I have a requirement for currency conversion. I am getting the Exchange rate from source system. I would like to Calculate the local currency using Function Module Convert_To_Local Currency. I am supplying the required parameters like Source currency, Targer currency and Foreign amount. And i amalso passing the Exchange Rate as Input. I need the FM to take the rate i am supplying for conversion. But the FM is looking up TCURR table for exchange rates.

Is there someway i could make it take the exchange rate supplied as part of Input Parameters. We can jus directly calculate the local currency directly by mulitplying the foreign amount with exchange rate. But my client insists me to use the FM since it would make the solution generic.

Thanks,

Hi Pravenn,

I don't think, that FM Convert_To_Local Currency will solve your requirement without modifications.

Why don't you schedule transfer of exchsnge rates from source to BW periodically as often as necesary?
