Travel Advance Posting in Other Currency

Hi All,
While posting Travel Advance in USD , System is taking exchange rate from CURR table. Our requirement is we want to post the Document in USD and also want to take exchange rate from Advance table.
Is there any BADI or Userexit available to change the exchange rate.
Regards,
Kamal

Hi
Check the Accounting Document Type for Travel Advance. You can maintain a different Ex. Rate Type(T003-KURST) for this Document Type in OBA7.
Thanks

Travel Advance Posting

Dear All,
We are entering the some Amt. in Advance tab of PR05 and we are not entering any receipts and we would like the advance amt. what ever we entered to be posted..!!
But when we post it also we are getting 'Posting with zero Amt.', we got to know that Advance would go to expense type VORS/VORK and we checked that these expenses types exists also even then we are not able to post the related trip which is having advance amt.
Please suggest.
Thanks and have a nice day ahead,
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Travel Advance, Posting behaviour when change in Trip Status

Hello,
An issue arose with SAP Travel Expenses - Advances. An advance was entered, then the request approved and settled.
No expenses were entered against the trip, but the status was then changed to "Trip Approved, To be setted". This resulted in a reversing entry for the advance in the posting run. No changes are displayed in PR05 (other than the statuses in the history tab) but when expenses are then entered against this trip, they are reiumbursed instead of being off-set against the trip advances.
Has anyone run into this issue?
Thank you,
Tammy Wilkinson

Hi Tammy,
It appears that the Settled status of the Advance was cancelled which resulted the posting run to reverse the original posting for advance.
Entering a separate travel expense will only do the posting without taking the advance into account. Two options to fix this.
1) Delete the original advance and amend the approved travel expense and add 'advance' within the trip with expenses. If the trip for expense is already attained 'Transferred to FI' status, you may need to cancel the original posting and apply the amendment.
2) Delete the trip with expense transactions and re-submit the advance trip and once approved and settled, convert the travel request(advance) to travel expense trip by adding transaction.
Let me know how it goes................

Travel Advance Request Payment

In travel management, my organisation wants to go through the process of travel advance approval and payment before the trip is done. I would need the details of the steps required to
- post the approved request to financial accounting (so there would be a basis for advance payment) before the payment can be done)
- post the travel expenses against the travel request when the trip is completed.
My problem is that the system requires the travel request to be settled before it is transferred to accounting. Settling the travel request means that the travel is completed and that is not what I want to achieve at the travel request stage. Can anyone please urgently help out with this?

Hi Muhammad,
Thank you very much for your help this far. I had done exactly what you stated and now I guess you understand better what my problem is. But where I am having issues is with the financial postings that come as a result of transferring both the travel request and the completed trip to FI.
After the travel request settlement (status: Request approved and Settled)
I did the posting run (status now: Transferred to FI and Settled) - The resulting FI document credits the vendor account and debits the travel advance account. This credit in vendor account is cancelled when I do the FI payment run for the approved advance amount.
This whole process works perfectly and I am okay with the way it works.
My major problem comes when the trip is completed, and I need to post all the travel expenses against that same approved travel request.
After the trip expenses are approved and settled I also do a transfer to FI and this is where the problem comes.
The posting run results to 2 FI documents
- the first reverses the previous posting to the vendor account (debits vendor and credits travel advance accounts)
- the second FI document credits the Accured Travel Expense account (with the total travel expense) and debits the individual travel expense items.
For the Scenario I am using for the travel advance posting - Advance via Financial Accounting - the FI documents that are created when the trip is created and transferred to FI is totally different from what is stated in the scenario.
My expectation is that a single FI document should be created which debits the particular trip expenses and credits both the travel advance and staff (vendor) account depending on whether the advance is more or less than the actual expenses. This is exactly what is depicted in the link you sent for the Advance via Financial Accounting- http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/b6/cda10f49e911d189060000e8322f96/content.htm.
My problem is that this does not work in my case and 2 FI documents are created instead of one. Please is there a way you can help me with this?
Thanks.

Travel Advance Special GL Posting-Setting up Posting Key

Dear experts,
I have managed to setup the Travel Advance correctly and also managed to post it which read as posting key 21 and 31.
However, i am not posting it as a Special GL Account as at transaction PRT3, under Group HRR(Postings from Travel Expenses Accounting) as i only have transaction:
HRP with posting key 21 (Credit Memo) and 31 (Invoice)
HRT with posting key 40 (Debit Entry) and 50 (Credit Entry).
How do i post advance with posting key 29 (Special GL Debit)?, as according to the FI consultant i need to configure the Advance posting key as one leg using 29 (Special GL Debit). And which transaction should i use, as from this thread i read that we need to use transaction HRV but however, my screen only have HRP and HRT. Do i have to apply any notes to make the transaction available or is it created elsewhere in FI configuration?
Please help.
Thanking you in advance.

I hope you have got your query answered by now but for the sake of others T code FBKP is used to maintain setting of Special GL

Purchase price variance line item - not to be posted in Parallel currency

Hi All,
Scenario:
Transaction currency - SGD
Local Currency - INR
Parallel Currency 1 (LC2) - Group currency - USD
Parallel Currency 2 (LC3) - Global Company currency - INR
Import PO - MIGO - MIRO
PO is raised in foreign currency.
Material master price control is maintained in 'S'.
While doing MIGO, I am getting following accounting entries:
Stock a/c Dr.
GR/IR a/c Cr.
Price variance* a/c Dr.
*The price varaince is because of difference in my material price as per material master and PO.
If I go and check in FBL3N, I can see all the line items in Transaction, Local currency and 2 Parallel currencies.
My query is, In SAP is it possible to avoid Price variance line item posting to Parallel currencies.
To my knowledge I know that it is not possible to avoid a single line to post it to Parallel currencies.
Thanks in advance.

This is the answer from OSS
Dear Customer,
the system works as designed.
When Material Ledger is activated, price differences are always
generated under the circumstances you have described. The reason is
that when material ledger is activated, price differences must not be
included into the stock changes value, otherwise the system would
not be able to calculate an actual price.
When Material Ledger is activated, the customizing setting
for handling price differences in the subcontracting process has no
effect.

How to clear open items posted in different currencies

Thanks in advance.......
Mistra

Hi,
Create Three GL like following
1. Forex gain/loss - Realized
2. Forex gain/loss - Unrealized
3. Balance sheet adjustment
After creating this GLs goto OB09 and enter your chart of accounts then press new entry. If you are clearing vendor then put Vendor reconciliation in G/L Account.
Exchange rates difference realized
Loss - Forex gain/loss - Realized
Gain - Forex gain/loss - Realized
Valuation
Val. loss1 - Forex gain/loss - Unrealized
Val. loss2 - Forex gain/loss - Unrealized
Bal sheet adj1 - Balance sheet adjustment
Save the entry, configuration is similar for all except G/L account you maintain in top. For customr it will be customer reconciliation account.

How we can get the Trial balance in other currency -USD now.

Hi All,
I have an issue reg: My client had gone live in 2005 and only One Currency is defined u201CINR u201D as company code currency and Controlling area currency.
Controlling area settings are maintained as: Controlling Area Same as Company Code and Currency Type maintained is: Company code currency u2013 INR.
Even in OB22, No parallel currencies (Group currency, Hard currency, Index based currency, Global company currency) are defined.
Now, my client is asking to have the Trial Balance (F.08) in currency u201CUSDu201D,but at present we are getting it is "INR" only.
Is it possible to get the Trial balance (F.08) in USD , for the previous posted document values(They did all the postings in INR only)
How we can get the Trial balance in other currency -USD now.
Please suggest and guide.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Sudha.

Hi,
First you need to enter USD as HARD CURENCY for your company code's country settings.
Then in OB22, for your Company code, enter Currency type 40 as additional local currency (LC2)
Legal Valuation
Exch rate type M
Sour Curr 1
TRs Date Type 2 ...and now save.
By making these changes, you will be getting F.08 in USD by specifying currency type as 40 in the selection screen of this report.
The only thing you wont get here is that.............you cannot determine USD values for documents, which are already posted into the system.
For the time being...you can use report S_ALR_87012279 - Structured Account Balances....in this selection screen enter USD as output currency, tran key date and exch rate type M....to get the LC values to be converted into USD during this report only. (this is as good as fast food)
As suggested above, use of special purpose ledger is all together a different concept....you dont need to go for it.

How to change config to allow posting to group currency field

Hi,
I am experiencing a problem whereby the asset for my local currency (USD) is different from my group currency (USD). There are many wrong postings causing this difference.
And it is too late & tedious to do all the correction.
Area 01 Local Currency (USD)
Area 03 Group Currency (USD)
However, I would like to do a posting to asset in both loc & group currency. My current config does not allow changes to group currency field when posting a transaction to an asset. It is grey off. System auto generate the figure.
How to I change the config so that I can also input a different figure for the group currency ?
Please help urgently.
Thanks.

Exchange rate difference posted to Group currency only during MIRO

Hi SAP Gurus,
We're activating parallel currency in ML and USD is the group currency. GR/IR clearing acct is managed in local currency only.
OB22
Crcy Type 30    Group currency                               Currency   USD
Valuation        Legal Valuation
ER Type    M     Standard translation at average rate
Srce curr. 1     Translation taking transaction currency as a basis
TrsDte typ 3     Translation date
Please find below scenario:
Co code currency: ZAR
PO: ZAR
Upon GR:
Posting date- 04/14/2009 exch. rate 1ZAR= 0.11099 USD
Entry: debit Expense - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
          credit GR/IR acct -   4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
Upon IR:
Posting date- 04/20/2009 exch. rate 1 ZAR= 0.11279 USD
Entry: debit GR/IR acct - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
          credit Vendor acct - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 460.02 USD
automatic additional debit Expense - 0.00 ZAR/ 7.38 USD
Here are my questions:
1.) Where would I check the setting for the GL account used in the automatic line entry posted in group currency during IR? (3rd line item above)
2.) Can this be changed? Say instead of the original acct assignment, the management want to change it to FX gain/loss account
3.) How?
I have checked several notes (331910,etc) but I can't seem to find the answers to my questions.
Appreciate your help. Thanks!
Regards
Dru

Just an update to this issue- I just found out that the system is pointing to KBS when posting the
exchange rate difference in group currency upon IR, hence, PO account
assignment is adopted. I'd like to rephrase my question- is there any
way we can change SAP behaviour such that it will point to other
transaction key (e.g. KDG) other than KDM? Bottomline is we want it
charged to other GL account not the one in the PO.
Thanks so much for your assistance.

Dru

Posting in local currency on foreign currency account/correctionOfValuation

Hi everybody!
I have a problem, and I hope someone will help me.
Is there any way to make posting in local currency on account with foreign currency as the account currency?
The reason why I'm asking this, is that I have to make corrections to currency valuation.
This is the situation: they made foreign currency valuation for last period of previous fiscal year. Instead without reversing, they made it with reversing, on the first day of 1. period in the new fiscal year. After this, they made reversing (fb08) of reversing document created by valuation program. Of course, after all, they have wrong valuation for every next period.
I have to make corrections in 3. period (1. and 2. are closed).
This is my idea: I want to make valuation for date 31.12.2006. with postings in 3. period, without reversing, and than, to make posting of valuated amount, but with opposite sign mark (if the valuation was 1000EUR debit, I'll make 1000EUR credit). I want to have effect of reversing, without running fb08.
Balance for the 3. period will be 0, but every next valuation will be ok (it will valuate difference for 31.12.2006., not difference for document posting date).
If anybody have idea how to make posting on foreign currency account, or the other way to make correction of valuation, I'll be grateful.
Best regards

Create one FI documents with multiple line items as per the following example. In this case you need to enter amount in both local currency and in document currency fields-
If you want to post credit of USD 5.00
Line 1: Local currency Dr. USD 5; Doc currency =x
Line 2: Local currency Cr. USD 10; Doc currency =x
Net impact in local currency is Cr USD 5 and doc currency is nil.

Foreign Currency valuation on Foreign currency items posted in Local currency accounts

Hi Gurus,
I have accounts maintained in local currency and only balances in local currency is not checked. Some items are posted in foreign currency.
Now system is doing foreign currency valuation on foreign currency balance of this account. I dont want system to do that.
Now how to correct it. I can make balance zero of account and then mark that tick of only balances in local currency but still system will do foreign currency valuation on items posted.
Appreciate you help in solving this issue. How to handle it?
Thanks

Hi ,
While executing Foreign currency valuation, you can select the GL accounts for valuation. Try to not input these local currency GL's.
Cheers,
