Exchange rate difference not getting posted to KDM account during MIGO/MIRO

Hello Gurus,
I have a purchase order with many line items. For some of the line items, the exchagne rate difference between the date of MIGO and the date of MIGO is taken to the KDM account. But for some other line items, it is not being taken the KDM. For such line items, the value of the GR/IR account in the local currency is different from MIGO to MIRO. Due to this, the GR/IR clearing is not happening automatically.
Do you have any idea, why the system is not taking the different to KDM for some line items and taking it correctly to KDM for others.
The only difference that I noticed between these 2 line items was
In case where the KDM account is determined, the GR was done for only one line item
In case where the KDM was not determined, the GR was done for more than one line item.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Thanks and Regards

Hi Venkatesh,
I suspect that in your system may be the setting in OMRW is not activated. If the CCurr indicator is not activated for respective company code. Please refer to the information from note 980402 :
After you implement this note, you can use Customizing transaction OMRW to make settings for the new logic for each company code and each currency (the first local currency and two other material ledger currencies, if the material ledger is active). If the CCCurr indicator (V_169P_PK-KDHW) is set, this activates a new logic for calculating the exchange rate difference (KDM amount) in the company code currency (first local currency). As a result, the system also generates KDM lines for purchase orders with account assignment and for purchase orders with MAP materials in inventory management and in invoice verification if required. If the material ledger (ML) is active, you can set a corresponding indicator for additional ML currencies.Bear in mind that the system performs a 1:1 cancellation for the KDM line in the cancellation transactions.
If the indicator is not activated, then the new logic for calculating the exchange rate difference is not active.
I hope this helps.

Exchange rate difference not going to the correct GL account

Hello,
In the transaction OB09, I have given the GL account 702000 for exchange rate difference realized loss and gain.
I have also maintained the exchange rates in the transaction OB08.
In transaction F-44(clear vendor), I give the foreign curreny(EUR) in the entry screen. When I do a charge off difference, however, I need to enter the amount in local currency(USD) because our bank operates in the local currency. When I do a document simulate, it puts the exchange rate difference into another GL account (703030 - that we have defined for unauthorized deductions) and not the one defined for the exchange rate difference(702000). This does not happen if I enter the amount also in the foreign currency.
Could anyone tell me the reason for this and the correction measures.
Any helpful suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rugmani

Hello,
The original problem is resolved. The current exchange rate was not getting uploaded to the system and as a result, the old exchange rate was being used. So it was putting the difference into the other account.
That has given rise to another problem. We use the TBEX to upload exchange rates from a centrally maintained spreadsheet. The upload is giving the following errors:
Securities master data EUR do not exist!
Interest rate master data CNY is missing
Suggestions and correction measures will be greatly appreciated.

Exchange rate differences not posted in paralel currency

Hi gurus,
I have a difficult one. I have the followign situation:
1)     We are using CLP for Local Currency (pesos chilenos)
2)     We are using USD for Local 2 Currency (group)
3)             We have implemented the Material Ledger (USD currency)
We have a problem when we post an Invoice (trx MIRO) with different date of the good recive. The currency of the purchase order is the same as the local currency (pesos chilenos CLP).
The problem is that the posting in the paralel currency does not post the Exchange Difference between the GR and the IV, instead the posting is with charge to the u201Cprice differenceu201D.
Does any body know if it is possible to post this difference as "Exchange rate difference?.

Santiago

Exchange rate differences not found in CKM3

Hi ML Experts,
PO has been raised with foreign currency. At the time of GR, the same price has been paid at the same exchange rate. Only the other charges like custom and CVD charges were paid in an increased exchange ratio. Hence, all these exchange rate differences got posted to the accounts assigned in KDM/KDR. But when I see in CKM3, exchange differences are not found. .Is there any setting imissing or should be done?.

FI Forex gain loss & Exchange Rate difference on Foreign Currency & Chart of Accounts

Dear All,
I have queries on following :
1) what is difference b/w Forex gain loss account & Exchange Rate difference on Foreign Currency account .
2) Under which Heads in Balance sheet they should come as per Indian Accounting Standards.
3) Are these accounts common for Vendor & customers or different.
4) they record FI data at Company code level or at sub-ledger level first (Vendor /Customer) .
4) Is it advised to use same Chart of Accounts to two companies in same country by using different GL's with different FSV?
Regards
MJ

Hi M J,
Please note the answers below:-
1. It is one and the same thing. When you say forex gain/loss account, it means a GL account and exchnage rate difference means, the difference in rates at which you purchased/sold and the rate at which you made paid/collected.
2. Ask Client where they want to show these GL's in Financial statement Version.
3. The configuration setting is in OB09 and SAP allows you to keep same or diff GL for both realised Exchnage rate gain/loss. It depends on how you want to see. technically it is possible.
4. The Valuation is done at company code level, but individual records are picked up at vendor/customer level. It means that the revaluation gain/loss adjustment is not given to each individual Vendor/Customer, rather it is posted to a GL - Balance Sheet adj.
5. Yes, you can use same chart of accounts and you do not need to create separate GL's at the company code level for two company codes. Same GL's can be used as the posting is made at Co. code level.

Kavita

Exchange rate difference in to different G/L account

Dear All,
Ex: I have raised a PO for Imports with account assignment category "Q",during creation of purchase order the Exchage rate was 46.65 INR. when i'm doing Invoice MIRO the exchage rate is 48.85.The difference is going against WBS element.But now our company wants the difference in currency should be against cost center
Please can any one suggest how can i hit Exchage rate difference against cost center.
Regards
subhash

Hi
As you have maintained Account assignement category Q that is for Projects - WBS elements, so any difference is being posted to that WBS element only.
If you donot want to post to a WBS element , then you need to creataea substitution ule in FI so that these get posted into a Costs center.
Please get in touch with your FI consultant & an ABAPEr to include the Substitution logic
Thanks & Regards

As per my client requirement, We need to post exchange rate difference(PO & in IR) in GL account. I have configured setting in OBYC - Transaction key is KDM. Also i have selected check box for company code, at spro>MM>Logistics Invoice Verification>Incoming Invoice>Configure How Exchange Rate Differences Are Treated.
Still system is not able to pick the GL account which is defined in OBYC.
Please help.
Steps i have carried out:
1. Assigned GL account in OBYC, Transaction key KDM
2. selected check box for company code, at spro>MM>Logistics Invoice Verification>Incoming Invoice>Configure How Exchange Rate Differences Are Treated.
3. Post PO (with some exchnage rate say 1.25)
4.Post MIGO
5. POST MIRO (Exchange rate is 1.50), Here when i simulate or post, the GL account is not picking to post difference.
M i missing any config????
I appreciate your help a.s.a.p,.
Thanks
Akshay

According to me, system wont calculate exch rate differences during MIRO.
Please make sure that, you have not selected the Exch Rate Fixed check box in PO header part, next to the exch rate field.
MIGO Entry:
Inventory/Expense Dr 100USD   5000INR
GR/IR......................Cr 100USD   5000INR
MIRO Entry:
GR/IR......................Dr 100USD   4700INR
Vendor....................Cr 100USD    4700INR
In this case, system will create 0 USD & 300 INR for forex diff gl line item, when you clear the GR/IR open items only.
Assume INR is your LC.

F-28 Exchange Rate Difference Account with a zero posting

Hi SAP Gurus,
When I try to post an incoming payment, even though there are no exchange rate differences, the system post to exchange rate difference account. How to configure the system to stop displaying the exchange rate difference account when the difference is zero.
Regards,
Siva

Dear Siva,
I dont think that the system will post to exchange rate difference account if there is no difference. Probably you are seeing the doucment in the foreign currency. Try to simulate the entry and on the simulated screen, click on the "Display currency" tab on the top of the entry. That will show the simulated entry in the local currency. In the local currency, there may be some difference.
Check it and if useful, assign points.

Exchange Rate difference account-

Hi All,
Please help me to find a solution for the scenario below.
Business process is third party PO scenario where the vendor currency(USD) is different from ccode currency.
Material is valuated at 30 EUR.
PO is made with the vendor at Rs.51.60 USD.(Exchange rate is not fixed at header level in PO)
GR is made at 51.60 USD
While doing IR,the exchange rate has changed from 1.290 to 1.395.
What configuration should be done for the system to post to Exchange rate difference account(transaction key KDM)..
(As of now the difference in price is posted to the consumption account,Which was already hit during GR).
Regards,
Deepak.

HI DEEPAK,
If Price control maintained in Material master is " V " then, at MIRO,
1. exchange rate diff. will be posted to stock account if available stock qty is >= invoice quantity
2. exchange rate diff. will be posted to exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is 0
3. exchange rate diff. will be posted propotionately to stock account and exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is < invoice quantity
If Price control maintained in Material master is " S " then, at MIRO,
1. exchange rate diff. will be posted exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) i.e. irrespective of stock availability.
pls, check and revert back

jay

Exchange rate difference in SAP MM

Hi experts,
Is there any way to bring the exchange rate difference at time of invoice to some other account rather than stock account.
The scenario is; for eg.
in PO : 1 USD = 50 INR
@ GRN 1 UDS = 55 INR
@ INV 1 USD = 60 INR
At the GRN, inventory will be updated with 55 INR.
At the INV, system will value vendor at 60 INR, but in Standard SAP, the difference of 5 INR will be updated as below.
1. exchange rate diff. will be posted to stock account if available stock qty is >= invoice quantity
2. exchange rate diff. will be posted to exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is 0
3. exchange rate diff. will be posted propotionately to stock account and exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is < invoice quantity
Is there any way, that system will post the exchange rate difference to separate account , rather than inventory.
It is because in client audit, the audit concern say, according to Indian standards, inventory should be valuated only one time in imports. In case of any differences, it should post to separate account and not inventory. They say SAP allows that. Client asked us the same.
I have checked, OMRW, but even after giving 'N' in ERD setting, system is posting to stock account only.
Any way to meet this??
Regards
sBk

Dear Sujith,
Exchange rate differences for a moving average price material will be
posted to the stock account, provide there is sufficient stock coverage.
Transaction OLMR -> Incoming invoice -> Configure how exchange rate
difference are treated.
If you set this selection field then the settings in the ERD Setting
column for this currency type are no longer relevant. The system
calculates and posts exchange rate differences between order-related
goods receipts and invoices not just for materials with standard price,
but also for:
* Materials with moving average price
* Account-assigned transactions
* Planned delivery costs
Because of this setting the exchange rate differences are posted to KDM
account instead of stock (BSX) or price difference (PRD) account
If you uncheck the field, exchange rate differences will be posted to
the stock or price difference account, for a moving average price
material, based on the stock coverage.
Please refer Sap note 980402 in detail

Exchange Rate Difference in PO with cost center assignment

Hi All,
In case of exchange rate difference in a PO with a cost center assignment the system Do not post the difference in the exchange rate difference account (maintained under transaction type - KDM - in T-code OBYC). However if the PO is a normal material PO it posts the exchange rate difference to the exchange rate difference account.
I want the exchange rate difference to be posted to the exchange rate difference accout for PO's with cost center assigned as well.
I have searched for SAP notes and found that note # 980402 & 1102481 provides a solution for this issue - but it seems both the notes are valid for 4.6 and 6 release only. We are on ECC 5.0
I have also checked note # 1136145 for this and implemented in the system successfully without any luck.
Can some one please help me with a solution for this issue.
Thanks and regards,
Ankur

Even I have implemented this note in our 4.6C system for account assigned POs, but no luck. Please let me know if are successful.
Thanks

Exchange rate differences whne clearing documents in local currency

Hello,
While clearing customer documents in local currency , the system calculates exchange rate differences in the clearing document. Even if the amount in local currency is 0, the amount in second local currency will have a value. The same is happening also when we clear GR/IR account. In the case of customer clearing, becuse for the exachange rate differences account are maintaied default values in OKB9, the system cannot split, since there are 2 different account assignments when tolerances are also involved.
I think that, if the exchange rate differences account wont be popluated while clearing, i will be able to post clearing with tolerance amounts.
Any idea about how to make the exchange rate differences not to be caulculated for clearing in local currency?
Thank you,
S.

Hi,
Go to OBY6 and choose your company code.
For your company code, the check box No forex rate diff. when clearing in LC should have been checked in case if you dont want to calculate the exch rate diff when clearing open items in LC.
This will solve your issue.
Thanks,
Srinu

Basic questions about Exchange Rate Differences

Hi Experts?
I have few questions about exchange rates:
1. Currently in 2007, under what circumstances are exchange rate differences not posted automatically? In the previous version, it was this case when invoices are linked to payment, and manual exchage rate differences had to be run.
2. What are unrealized exchange rates? and When do unrealized exchange rates occurs?
3. In account oo logical pinciples, why is there a need to auto reverse Exchange rate differences or Conversion rate differences during the opening of a new posting period??
Much Thanks!
Warmest Regards,
Chinho

Hi Chinho,
you may find useful info in this wiki:
[How does SAP Business One deal with Realised and Unrealised Exchange Rate Differences? |https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60654139]
& also these 2 EES:

As a rule, in version 2007 it's the unrealised exchange rate differences on the BP side that are relevant since with the introduction of the unified internal reconciliation engine realised partial exchange rate differences are automatically posted. You also use the functionality to post exchange rate differences for FC GL accounts at a particular execution day.

FB05 - exchange rate difference problem

Dear experts,
A customer document transferred from billing document is in currency USD while the local currency is EUR. Exchange rate is /1.32180. I clear this document of the customer using FB05, there are 3 items in the clearing document(the customer, the clearing account and an item of bank fees). On that day, the exchange rate /1.36150, and the configuration of OB09 have been set.However, the exchange rate difference goes to the bank fees account instead of the pointed account in OB09. this issue occurs sometimes not always.
Thank you in advance.

Hi David
Your figures don't add up??? If I take the Local balance and the Foreign balance then the exchange rate applied would have been 9,641.77 at that point in time and not 11,945.30 or 10,894.03. At what point are any of these 2 applicable and were there any other exchange rate differences posted and not yet reversed?
Can you check your numbers and give me a more clear indication of what the problem is. Also 24,125.00 * 1,051.27 = 25,361,888.75 and not 2,202,357,298.05.
Let me know so I can better understand the issue.
Kind regards
