Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues with currency evaluation discrepancies for currencies like HUF, JPY, KRW, and CLP, primarily caused by improper handling of decimal places in SAP systems. The problem arises when the currency values, which might not necessarily conform to the standard two-decimal format, are misinterpreted due to their exception definition in the TCURX table. The note explains that internally, SAP manages currency values with two decimal places regardless of the actual settings in TCURX, only applying the configured decimal places during conversion to external formats. Solutions include correct settings in the TCURX table and adapting the evaluation of currency data in various SAP transactions and reports to accurately reflect the defined number of decimal places, preventing data misinterpretation.
