Translating Currencies in Financial Management

Data source types: Oracle Hyperion Financial Management

Converting currencies is called "translating data" in Financial Management. You can translate data from the entity's input currency to any other currency defined in the application. Currencies are not associated with a parent-child entity pair, so you can translate data on demand, separately from the consolidation process.

In ad hoc grids, if you have security access rights to the data, you can convert, or translate, values from one currency to another. To translate data:

  1. Select a cell or range of cells.
  2. From the data source ad hoc ribbon, select Calculation, then select one of the following:

    • To translate the selected cells, select Translate.

    • To force translation to run for all selected cells, select Force Translate.
