3058828 - Currency conversion is ignored when running data action on private version or edit mode in SAP Analytics Cloud for Planning (SAC) KBA Template - 2021.2.19

Symptom

The Currency conversion is ignored when running data action on private version or edit mode. 

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud (Enterprise) 2021.2.19

Reproducing the Issue

Simply run your Data Action.

Cause

This is the behavior by design.

Resolution

This is not an issue. Data actions have no built-in currency conversion.

If the Data Action is executed on a public version, there is a setting option: currency conversion determines on how the private version is being created: On default currency (USD) - then copies across different org units will copy the data from USD to USD. If local currency is selected, then there could be discrepancies as you could copy from USD to EUR. That is why there is a choice. Data Actions in itself cannot do currency conversion.

Workaround:

Create the private version for the users in default currency.
Run the Data Action on local currency along entities but not cross-entities.
