Activating Group currency

Hi,
I want to Activate a group currency to a company code (Using 0B22)
But i have following Problems
1.Open Item exists in a larger quantity to reverse and Repost it againg after activating Group Currency
2.Depreciation values and asset values exist in local currency
3.Controlling Documents Exist in Local currency
just activating OB22 will not solve my problem.
Can i create a new company code and then activate group currency and then Upload the old company code data??
I have read all the concern notes (73848,87180,97596,89531,51840,27621,39919)

Group currency update problem

Hi FICO gurus
We have a problem of group currency update.
We have company code currency GBP and 2nd local currency activated (Group currency) also in GBP.
Now when we do postings in FI, some of the FI documents are not updating 2nd local currency amount (Group currency).
Hence while clearing the 2 or more line items in the same GL account we are having a problem of exchange rate fluctuations in group currency.
Does any one know why some of the documents are not updating group currency?
Do we need to really maintain OBA1 configuration (exchange rate derivation)?
Thanks for your reply
Mr GK

Does the ECCS ledger include group/ledger currency in the definition (CXL2)?
Another thing to check is that if the desired GC values are loade in before the translation. If so, the translation method can be changed to "do not translate" for certain items such as the P&L items. This way the values are not changed from the original ledger CAD values as a result of translation.

Re :- What is the Importance of Group Currency

My client maintained two company codes having different currencies. But they want to maintain reports only for local currency . In that case I am Activated Groups currencies for the both the company codes. It is correct or wrong.

Hi Ramu,
Yes, please maintain group currency as local currency, so u can consolidate at group level in local currency and report.
Thanks, Ashok

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

Valuation Currency not posting Group Currency equivalent

Hi FSCM Experts,
Can you help with this query please? We are activating FSCM FX and Hedge Management components.
We have maintained the Valution Currency as EUR for the company code. The company code has Local Company Code currency of EUR. When the postings to the FI account happen from the TPM1 valuation transaction, the EUR value is only updated in the Loc Curr field. There is no USD equivalent showing in the Loc Curr2 field. There is no value at all updating in the Doc Curr field.
It is required that the values on the GL account also show out in USD equivalent and not just in local currency EUR.
This company code is a USD functional company code. That meas that under transaction OB22 (Additional Local Currencies for Company Code) under sections '1st Local Currency' and '2nd Local Currency' the translation being used is 'Translation taking transaction currency as a basis'. This setting is a fundamental business requirement and cannot be altered.
Due to the fact that the Doc Curr (= Transaction Currency) field is not being updated in the TPM1 posting above, there is no value in the Transaction Currency field and therefore no translation is being done into Loc Curr2 (= Group Currency of USD).
Can you advise is there a way to get the USD equivalent to show on the GL account posting please? For example, is there a way to get the Doc Curr field to be populated when the TPM1 posting is done? If the Doc Curr field could be populated (eg maybe by the Position Currency etc) then the system would be able to do a traslation to USD equivalent amount per the settings in OB22 above.
Thank you for your advise here.

We resolved this using a BADI TPM_ACCIF_TRAC

Amount in document currency & group currency is different

dear all,
In my company i have been activated material ledger & parallel currency. I want to make sure is my setting is correct or not and i want give the example:
Material master data:
MAV material :
Company code currecny : 20000 IDR
Group currency : 2 USD
Purchase Order (foreign currency)
PO currency : 2 USD
Qty order : 10 PC
Result of FI document on GR transaction(Exchange rate : 9000):
Document Currency
Inventory 22,22 USD 200000 IDR
GR/IR 20 USD 180000 IDR
ML 2,22 USD 20000 IDR
Group Currency
Inventory 20 USD 200000 IDR
GR/IR 20 USD 180000 IDR
ML 20000 IDR
My assumption, calculate to get amount inventory in document currency & group currency is different,
Document currency:
Previous MAV (IDR) * Qty GR
Current Exchange rate
Group Currency :
Previous MAV (USD) * Qty GR
My question is it correct, amount in document currency & group currency is different. If not correct there is other config to setting that.
Thanks for your help..

see if you have maintain the PO in the some other currency and your local currency is different from the Po currency and if you have maintain in the excahnge rate for the same then the system will calculate the price in both currency and yoy can choose 1SAP Amount in document and local currency and if you want to display in the group currency then maintain the exchange rate and craete the layout and save that you can display in that cureency while you do the invoice the system will show the accounting documents in that way on chossing the correct layout.

FIFO valuation in Group Currency

Hi Experts,
In our client Materail Ledger is activated. Balance Sheet Valuation Inventory on FIFO was activated. at present we have no problem to execute the FIFO valuation and getting the results for currency 10, i;e., company code currency.
At present business wants to extend this FIFO valuation to Group Currency (means based on the movements in group valuation). I have gone through the all customisation steps, and could not able to find any specific setting for currency option.
Can any one tell me how can i proceed further. will it be possible to valuate the inventory on FIFO basis in Group Currency. If So, Can you please let me know the procedures to be followed.
Thanks & Regards,
S Vasu

Hello Vasu,
You will not need any additional config for the FIFO part since the currency type 10 would act as reference for the group valuation. So you would need to update the settings for currency and valuation profile and the reference variant and transfer control for the group valuation so that it refers to the costing variant used in the legal valuation and the conversion is based on the exchange rate as mentioned in the table.

Group Currency Balance Roll-Forward

Hello,
I seem to be having an issue rolling by 2006 balances forward. I have been using transaction F.16 to carry them forward and FS10 to verify. Everything looks fine in the local currency view in FS10 but when I look at the group currency balance it has not rolled forward. Any ideas on why this may be happening would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi
See below the procedure from help
Carry forward the parallel currency ledgers also
Message no. GU633
Diagnosis
You want to carry forward the balances for the general ledger.
You have other active ledgers, in addition to ledger 00, and they have to be carried forward as well.
Procedure
Using the input help, display the parallel currency ledgers and carry them forward also.
thanks

ECC 6- Table that gets updated when Currency Translation to Group Currency

Hi All,
I would like to know which table gets updated with the Values when we execute tcode "FAGL_FC_TRANS"?
I would like to see the values that system posted during April 09, May09 etc for each GL that was Translated into Group Currency using the tcode.
under SE16, i tried checking for all tables with FAGL*, but could not figure out the exact table.
Thanks
Vijay

BKPF gets updated - The T Code you will in those entries in BKPF is FBB1, Business Trans. will be RFBU and Ref. Transaction will be BKPF.
BSEG gets updated - Activity Type RFBU. You will not see any non-zero amounts in transaction currency and local currency. In group currency, you will see a non-zero number.
FAGLFLEXA gets updated - Transaction RFBU, Ref. Transaction BKPF - No amounts in TC and LC. Amount in GC.
FAGLFLEXT gets updated - Transaction RFBU, Ref. Transaction BKPF. Again, nothing in TSLxx and HSLxx. Amounts in KSLxx (xx being the period in which you have posted translation).

Activatate second local currency(Group currency)

hi Experts ,
I am going to activate activate second local currency(Group currency) on the current company [ which i close 2 years on it ]
i face serious problem to evaluate the amount has been entered for the previous year is there any to way to evaluate it .

Hello Emad,
To avoid many future trouble, it will be a nice idea to activate group currency at the beginning of a financial year. Acitivate at country level (OY01) and at co.code level(Ob22). Also make sure to clear all open items before activating.
How to evaluate the historical data after activation of group currency needs to be tested.Adding a new currency needs depth analysis about the impact to various modules. Pl see the note-399919 which details the process for maintaining additional currencies.

Enhance 2LIS_03_UM to include Material Ledger and Group Currency

Hi all,
I have searching for a solution for this issue for almost a week now both in SDN and Service Marketplace but seems that there is very less informaton about it.
Background:
We are in the process of implementing the standard content for Inventory in BI and have followed all the steps necessary to initialize and load data. Out data matches perfectly with reports such as MC.1 and MB5L however in the Revaluation datasource there is no provision to pickup other currency type for material price maintained in material ledger.
I have been trying to find some User Exit/BADI either in the V1/V2 posting or during V3 collection run to pick the delta in standard price and Moving Average Price (MAP) for these difference currency types but without any success.
We have total three valuations maintained in the ML (Material Ledger)
10 - Local Currency (this is the only one provided in the standard content extractor)
30 - Group Currency With Group Valuation
31 - Group Currency with Legal valuation
Even if I change the Group currency in MR21 the change is picked up by 2LIS_03_BF and with the field BWGEO blank. This is not surprising since this field is for Local currency only.
I am sure that someone must have faced this issue before where material ledger is active, any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
Delta load extracts data from Delta Queue based on your update mode selected in LBWE.
Full Load or Init load extracts data from Setup tables, here if you are extracting data from setup tables ? did you fill the setup tables now or not after deleting the existing data of the setup tables?
are you getting same values when compare to R/3 and BW data for some document numbers?

GRIR Maintenence and Clearing for non group currency PO

Hi Experts
I have an issue where I have a PO in say USD where group currency for company is Aus Dollar (AUD)
At Month end, for whatever reason there is a GR/IR balance and we maintain it with MR11 but MR11 balances the difference in group currency (AUD) where all other postings for the PO are in USD.
When we run F.13 or F13E the account never clears as it only clears transactions of same currency. We seem to never be able to clear these (without introducing a large tolerance in F.13 perhaps?)
Any ideas on a way forward?
thanks
AC

Try the finance forum ?
I'd expect all currency amounts to get converted to company currency and I've never known MR11 not to clear balances. Wild guess: have you got required exchange rates in place ?

Table for finding material cost in group currency

Hi ,
We are maintaing product cost on Cocode currency and group currency using CK11. We are not able to find the cost in group currecy in MEBW or KEPH.
Kindly let me know the right table to look into.
Thanks,
Jatin

Hi Jatin
Did you mean you have cost component split in controlling area currency? if yes, then you will get for each costing calculation two records in table KEPH, the currency label is field LOSFX. The record with blank LOSFX is company code currency, the one with "X" is controlling area currency.
Hope this helps.

Realized exchange rate difference in local and group currency

Hi Friends,
For a company code with local currency as Euro and group currency as USD, the setting in TR code OB22 for group currency is: Translation taking first local currency as a basis. When the open items are cleared, SAP posts difference in local currency and group currency. Sometimes, document currency is also group currency i.e. USD. The realized exchange difference is posted in Euro but it is not converted from Euro to group currency. Instead, system just calculates difference in group currency by comparing the value in group currency at the time of original transaction and when the transaction is cleared. Does anyone have dealt with such requirement and is there a way to be able to translate realized exchange differences from local to group currency?
Thanks and regards,
Pinky

>Sometimes, document currency is also group currency i.e. USD.
Can you explain, it's because of your settings or because of SAP?

How to restrict Group Currency to Version

Hi
I am looking into multiple group currency consolidation, using different versions.
My question, is it possible to restrict the Group Currency by version.
E.g., I want version 100 to be restricted to group currency GBP, and version 999 to be restricted to group currency USD.
Regards
M

Thanks Eugene
I appreciate I can specify in the Parameters the relevant combinations.
However what I want to do is restrict whats acceptable in the parameters, that is
GBP & v.999 or USD & v.100 should not be allowed to be entered.
Because you can have 2 group currencies in a single version, then I am not sure how this would be restricted.
Thanks
M
