TCURR, you have maintained exchange rates for non-ISO currency codes such as "USDN" or "EUR3".

These are incorrectly treated as a separate currency and are included in the selection, but are then converted into the assigned ISO code (for example, "USDN" -> "USD") before the output. In this case, the system returns the exchange rate for "USD" twice.

The service callers may rely on the uniqueness of the currency.

3.5 Checklist

3.5.1 Security Requirement

For the infrastructure prerequisite for integration to ECC, the minimum security requirement is SSL between SAP Cloud for Travel and Expense and ECC systems. The landscape setup of this could be any way your ECC security rules have been established within your company. SAP recommends terminating SSL on a Web Dispatcher in the DMZ. You can use the Technical Connectivity Guide (can be downloaded from Service Marketplace. Please check the path in Appendix for SAP Cloud for Travel to help setup your landscape if using Web Dispatcher.

3.5.2 Certificate

For the infrastructure security prerequisite for integration to ECC, certificate(s) are required for authentication on the test/prod landscapes. The creation of an SSL Server PSE and the creation of a certificate request / import of a CA signed certificate response is the default procedure. You have three choices when you setup the recommended Web Dispatcher.

1) The server certificate used by the reverse proxy must be trusted by the SAP Cloud for Travel and Expense tenant. Therefore, it must be signed by one of the certification authorities listed in the Supported Certification Authorities chapter of the Technical Connectivity Guide for SAP Cloud for Travel.

2) You can use a self-signed certificate, which you would need to add it to the server PSE and the SAP Cloud for Travel and Expense tenant too (within Admin work center).

3) You can also generate a temporary server certificate for you test system, but this would only be valid for 8 weeks and this is not recommended.

For more information on security recommendations, review the Technical Connectivity Guide for SAP Cloud for Travel.

3.5.3 IP Range / Ports

You need to check with your cloud service team about the IP Range/Ports information.
