If you execute a CALC ALL command to consolidate the database after running a conversion, meaningful total-level data is generated in the converted base rate partition, but the local rate partition will contain a meaningless consolidation of local currency values. To prevent this, use the calculation command SET UPTOLOCAL, which restricts consolidations to those parents with the same defined currency. For example, all cities in the U.S. use dollars as the unit of currency. Therefore, all children of the U.S. consolidate to U.S. Consolidation stops at this level, however, because North America also contains countries that use other currencies.
