Summary :
Implementing parallel local currencies in the FI module requires careful consideration of impacts on existing records and coordination with SAP on project-specific solutions. When integrating new parallel currencies, past documents remain unchanged, potentially creating misleading exchange rate discrepancies and zero account balances upon clearing. The transition approach depends on whether the new parallel currency matches the first local currency. Solutions include copying values from existing data or re-evaluating from the first local currency. Each option has foundational implications for data consistency across the FI and other SAP modules. Specialized SAP programs are advised for implementation, with consultation services available to guide through technical and procedural complexities.
