How to Set up the Customizing Currency Display in Query Output

Recently I saw some customers raised incidents about the currency display in the query output. It’s not very often to request the customizing currency display, but BW indeed provides the functionality to set the alternative currency display.

Requirement:
Scenario 1: you want the currency key displayed as what you want. For example, you hope to display currency key CNY as RMB.
Scenario 2: you are hoping to have the currency key be hidden in query output. 

Scenario 3: you want the currency key displayed before the key figure values, while the currency is shown after the value in normal way.

Solution:

The above requirement can be achieved by the “Set Alternative Currency Display” setting in transaction code SPRO.

The following three new entries will satisfy above requirement.

Actually this feature has been introduced in the following online help document.
