Question:
Hello everyone,
which table maintains the exchange rate values for currency translation?
If an exchange rate is not specified for a particular time period what default value is used in the traslation?
can you also throw some light on exchange rate type.
Best Regards,
Mark
Answer:
The exchange rate type distinguishes exchange rates that are valid in the same time like the Daily Exchange Rate (EURX) or Standard translation at average rate (M).
You can create your new exchange rate type, for example, a monthly average or a year-to-date annual average.
The exchange rate types are stored in the central table TCURV and can be maintained in the Customizing (Check Exchange rate types).
The exchange rate value used for currency translation is the most recent.
The Currency translation key is a combination of exchange rate type, source currency, target currency and time reference and defines the exchange rate to apply for the translation.
You can create, change and display Currency Translation Keys using RRC1, RRC2, RRC3 transactions.

Answer:
Hi All,
I have a restricted key figure (RK1) where initially I set up currency translation to be based on currency Key (CK1) in USD.
Let us assume that I am using RK1 in query (Q1)
What happens in the system in fillowing Scenario? I am not looking for the results in the querry but the process behind the scenes.
1. In Q1 if I change the currency key to CK2 and USD is my query using now CK1 or CK2 or CK1 and then CK2?
2. In Q1 if I select Currency Key CK1 and select currency EUR is the system converting to USD and then to EUR or directly to EUR ?
Thanks
