SAP Knowledge Base Article - PublicSymptom
The company currency needs to be changed for an existing company from OCC to NCC for which postings/journal entries have been already generated (OCC stands for old company currency, NCC stands for new company currency).
Example: Bulgaria is to adopt the euro effective 1st January 2026. Therefore, the company currency needs to change from LEV to EUR from 01.01.2026.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Cause
- Changes to a set of books are only possible as long as no journal entries exist in the that set of books.
- Since there are already postings in the past belonging to the company, it is not possible to change the assigned set of books currency from OCC to NCC.
Resolution
The recommended approach is to set up a new company, migrating all existing data into this new company. This can be achieved in two ways:
Option 1: Create a new company in the existing tenant.
Option 2: Start in a new system.
You can find details on both options in the blog outlined in the See Also section.
