Hi!

Local currency refers normally to company, transaction is currency of document and group might be something over company level - but names are sometimes used for different currencies depending on transaction.

To get an overview, enter SE11 BSEG and look at tabstrip Currency/Quantity Fields. There you will see to each currency amount field linked currency field (and get already a hint of meaning, if it's T001-WAERS -> company code's currency).

Regards,

Christian

Hi,

-> it's better to explain with FILCT or GLT0:

LC - HSLXX (BSEG-DMBTR)

TC - TSLXX (BSEG-WRBTR)

GC - KSLXX

Hello Sravan,

<b>Local Currency:</b> The currency that is defined for the Company Code (in SPRO).

<b>Group Currency:</b> Currency defined for a consolidation group.

A group currency is used in the consolidated financial statements.

Before the consolidation process can be completed, all values in the individual financial statements must be translated from the local or transaction currency into group currency.

<b>Transaction Currency:</b>

The currency in which a business transaction is processed. This can also be looked at as the currency in which an individual document is posted.

Hope that helps,

Regards,

Anand Mandalika.
