BW Inventory values are different from those coming from BFC.The 2 main reasons are : the organization perimeter (only SAP companies in BW and all companies even non SAP in Finance) and the CONSO adjustments.BW Inventory Values are not shown in this dashboard.Conversion rules: conversion from a local currency to EUR is based on the exchange rate managed by Finance. For each inventory value, the rate considered is the one of the inventory month.
For USD, we don’t have all the exchange rates because it's not the official currency at Solvay (EUR).So for the following countries: Argentina, Bulgaria, Egypt, Mexico, New Zealand and Switzerland, when selecting USD, the unit will not be USD but the local currency. |
