Handling of period 0 with special InfoObjects in currency conversion

[Former Member]

I created new currency conversion key that uses special InfoObject called Target Year/Period for variable time reference.  This InfoObject uses 0FISCPER (Fiscal Year/Period) as reference.

There is no way to specify the handling of period 0 when a special InfoObject is used. As a result, I receive an error stating "Warning Period 0000000 - No valid translation date to specify" when I run a BEx query with this currency conversion key, even though the query doesn't select period 0 data.  The query still brings back results, even with an error message.

Is there a different way to set up my currency conversion key, so that I don't receive an error?

Thank you.

Hi Nadia,

The Warning "Period 0000000 - No valid translation date to specify" usually only occurs if there are 0 or not assigned values for the infoobject in question (in your case 0FISCPER). Such effects can also happen due to special scenarios (multprovider/infoset mapping..).

As described in SAP note 1099976 - BRAIN385 : Warning Period 0000000 you should be able to supress this message.

I hope this information helps you.

Best regards,
Bernhard
