3627913 - Currency Within Account Is Not Getting Populated

Symptom

When creating a new Account, the system do not automatically assigns the default Currency of the corresponding Sales Organization to the Account.

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Customers WC.
  2. Go to Accounts View.
  3. Create a new Account by clicking on '+'.
  4. Select a Sales Organization with a maintained 'Currency' value, for example, EUR.
  5. Click on 'Save'.
  6. Notice that the Account gets created, however, in the 'Sales Data' tab, there is no 'Currency' maintained for the Sales Organization.

Cause

Both Sales Org and Accounts are considered Master Data.

The auto determination of Sales Data/Currency will work when creating new transactions, for example, a Sales Quote.

However, this determination will not work while creating another Master Data (in this scenario, a new Account).

Resolution

This is the standard behavior of the system.
