In this blog I am going to discuss about Currency conversion in  SAP Analytics Cloud. This scenario is required if no target converted Key figure or measure provided from back end.

Implement below three step to create a converted Key figure in Target currency –

1. Create a currency conversion table .

2. Create a SAC Model using source data.(Planning is preferable).

3.  Create a story to display the converted Key figure .

Let’s discuss all the step’s in details –

## Create a currency conversion table :

A. Go to Home , Modeler and then “Currency Conversion” Tab and click on  +  Sign to add Currency Conversion Table.

B. Name the table as “CR_CONVERSION”. Copy from you excel data which created in below version and paste to the table. Change the date format as expected by the system. Save it.

## Create a SAC Model using source data : 

A. Create a Model using import of the below excel file in your tenant. –

Name as source data model as “source_data” and create a model.

Go to the “source_data” model preference and change the settings  for currency. This step is very important as currency enablement is required.
