IV95311: CURRENCY CONVERSION IS NOT TAKING THE CORRECT EXCHANGE RATE IN TRICONTRACTCOSTBREAKDOWNITEMS

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• When you have currency conversions for multiple time periods
  and the you have a lease that falls inside the first period, it
  is taking the last currency conversion as shown by the steps
  below.
  
  Set the following up for currency conversions
  Chinese Yuan -> USD 2.0 1/1/2017 - 1/31/2017
  Chinese Yuan -> USD 3.0 2/1/2017 - 2/28/2017
  Chinese Yuan -> USD 4.0 3/1/2017 - 3/31/2017
  
  Go to Form Builder and in
  triCostItem->triContractCostBreakdownItems, add the field
  triRateNUBase
  
  Create a standard contract with the following:
  Date = 1/12/2017
  Currency = Chinese Yuan
  Currency Exchange date = 1/12/2017
  On the cost tab, add a schedule of values with the following
  information
  Date = 1/12/2017
  Amount = 1000
  
  save and create it as a draft
  
  The amount = 1000 and the amount base = 3000.
  
  But the amount base should be 2000 since the time period fell
  within that currency exchange rate.  It seems to be taking the
  March exchange rate.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• Need to set the conversion group and exchange data in the BO
  mapping
  

Problem conclusion

• The triCostItem triContractCostBreakDownItems business object
  had their properties updated to set triConversionGroupLI for
  the conversion group, and triExchangeDT as the exchange date.
  This is targeted to the 1h2017 application OM/Release.
  

Temporary fix

• Here are the steps for the customer to resolve the issue:
  In DataModeller, expand the triCostItem Module, and open the
  triContractCostBreakdownItems Business Object.
  Click the Revise BO link to revise the Business Object.
  Select Tools -> BO Mapping
  For the Conversion Group dropdown field, select
  triConversionGroupLI
  For the Exchange Date dropdown field, select triExchangeDT
  Save BO Mapping
  Click the Publish BO link, to publish the Business Object.
  We are addressing this specific scenario only and are not
  making sweeping changes to all BO's in OOB App's.
