Description
This document is created as a step-by-step guide to demonstrate how to quickly modify the currencies displayed in a standard delivered Fiori KPI
evaluation. You will be guided through the steps required to create a copy of a standard delivered KPI evaluation, identify the currency
parametrization and modify the required values to set a specific currency and create a custom tile to display the changes. You will also be able to
add this “custom” KPI to your Fiori Launchpad.

Purchase Order Value tile which shows
currency in EUR.

2. Start “KPI Workspace” from your Fiori
Launchpad.
**NOTE: Make sure your user has been assigned role “SAP_BR_ANALYTICS_SPECIALIST” as it is
needed to display KPI Workspace

3. All KPI data is transportable, first define
a transport order by going to the
settings option. In this case, a
Customizing request should be enough.
**NOTE – Workbench request and Package are required when creating a KPI from scratch, in this
scenario we will only create a new evaluation which requires a Customizing request.

4. Search for the KPI you wish to
modify, it usually matches the
name of the tile you want to
modify (Purchase Order Value) and
click on the evaluation name
(which matches the KPI tile’s
subtitle: “Last 365 Days”).
5. Once you have navigated to the
KPI evaluation you will notice that
the input parameter for currency is
set to EUR by default. Click on
“Copy” to create a new copy of the
evaluation

6. Select “Copy evaluation and all its
entities”
**NOTE – We are selecting the option “Copy evaluation and all its entities” as we want to reuse all the
standard drilldowns and will only modify the currency parameter.
7. Select the KPI where you wish to
place the copy (in this case we are
using the same KPI Purchase Order
Value).

the evaluation to modify its
parameters.

2. Navigate to the input parameter
configuration and modify the
currency value. Click on “Activate”
once you have finished your changes.
3. As we selected the “Copy evaluation
and all its entities” no tiles are
created, hence we will need to create
a new tile for our evaluation. Click on
the “Configure Tile” button.

4. As there is no tile defined for the
evaluation click on the “Add Tile”

**NOTE – Always check documentation available at Fiori Apps Library to identify the catalogs
7. Click on Save and go back to the KPI
main screen. Make sure your
