Currency Management Model
Import (SCO)
Data is NO longer imported from BW file DYS_BW_CURR file.
As of July 2024, rates for Syensqo databases are currently updated manually. Interfaces have been turned off.
Steps to update currencies are as follows:
- Open the data field "Import Currencies - MCR [CAR4] in the Currency Management | 0. Import data table
- This is in the x. Currency Management user model
- Update the rates manually from the current month to the end of the future (the same rate should be propagated in all future months)
- If needed, update the current month with the data from the BW files (past rates are based on actuals)
- Save the changes
- D+1 - the currency / LC conversion will be updated in the hierarchy and sent to the BW queries
OLD
- for Composites (DP2)
- last imported value is propagated through the end of the horizon (Y+10) and;
- Y-4 values are kept.
- for MTP (Mid Term Planning) for Special Chem & Novecare
- last imported value is propagated through the end of the MTP horizon (Y+5)
Conversion Rate EUR → LCs
Conversion Rate is assigned from the CAR4 Currencies at <Any Level> level.
Then, this Conversion Rate is populated for all LCs available in DynaSys.
These data fields are used to updated the Unit of Measure Conversion in the hierarchy.
Conversion Rate EUR → Active L2
Each Conversion Rate EUR → LCs are summarized in Conversion Rate !EUR → !LC to update the Unit of Measure Conversion in the hierarchy and allow automatic conversion for all data fields.
Finally, the Conversion Rate !EUR → !LC (from structure) is fed by the hierarchy's conversion factor.
Process to Add New Currency
- Add to BW
- Add in Unit of measure conversion folder
- Add manually to the LC master table
- relaunch the import to ensure the CAR4 rates are imported correctly
- Add new data field to the Currency Management | 1. Conversion Rate EUR → LCs
- Update 2 rule bases
- Currency Management: Apply conversion
- Currency Managment : Conversion rate EUR to LCs
