CKM3 - PPV analysis: split between exchange rate effect and price effect

Dears,
I need to verify how the purchase price variance (PPV) is calculated within the Material Ledger, specifically regarding the split between exchange rate effect and price effect.
I found transaction CKM3 that display the exchange rate difference and the price difference (I think total price difference = exchange rate effect + price effect), but I still have some open points:
- How CKM3 should works? I created some documents to test this transaction (goods receipt from purchase order and its invoice) creating a PPV with exchange rate effect and price effect (both) but in CKM3 the split is not shown, only the total PPV is shown at document level.
- Is there same specific procedure to be followed? Is there other steps to be done before CKM3 is executed in order to split the PPV?
and then
- Is CKM3 the best solution to analyze the PPV within Material Ledger?
Thanks and Regards,
Jody

Tnx Adi,
this link is very helpful, now I've an idea about how the data should be shown in CKM3.
But at the moment I replicated a similar case to the example mentioned in the link, and in CKM3 I see different values: all PPV amounts are only present in column "Price difference" without the part due to the exchange rate effect.
Do you know if I need to execute a preliminary step before to execute CKM3? Or is there something to be set-up in custominzing in order to allow the correct population of the exchange rate price difference?
Thanks & Regards,
Jody

Tax calculated on the exchange rate differiences and interests

Hi Sap Guru's, I have a question for you.
NOTE:... my FI knowledge is not very good
I have postings with the line exchange rate difference and strange is, if the tax on the normal posting is calculated, there is also calculated tax on the exchange rate difference amount. Our FI experts said that this is not correct and the tax shouldn't be calculated on such postings like interests or exchange rate differences...
Any tip, where I can check or set this?

Hi Saso,
Have a look with FS00 if the account for exchange rate is tax relevant.
When you change this to not tax relevant please test it in Q system perhaps it blocks automatecly posting

ITunes library is split between iTunes/iTunes Music and iTunes/iTunes Media/Music

My itunes library is split between iTunes/iTunes Music and iTunes/iTunes Media/Music, what should I do to combine them? I would like all my iTunes stuff to be in one, organized, location.

Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
If you have upgraded from version 8 (or earlier) to iTunes 9 (or later) at some point, then your media folder (everything inside the red outline) may still be called iTunes Music instead of iTunes Media. The extra Music folder inside the media folder is used if you have allowed iTunes to Upgrade to iTunes Media Organization (iTunes 9) or used File > Library > Organize Library > Reorganize files in the folder "<Media Folder>" (iTunes 10). Depending on your choices for Keep iTunes Media folder organized and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library plus a little bug in which one build changed the name of the file storing the choice of layout it is quite easy for some of your files to be organized according to one layout and some the other.
Somehow it seems you've also managed to get both an iTunes Music and an iTunes Media folder. I'd recommend you make sure the media folder preference is set to iTunes Media before you continue...
Assuming you're happy letting iTunes organize your files the following steps should tidy things up (should it be necessary):
1. Select File > Library > Organize Library... > Tick Reorganize files in the folder "<Media Folder>" and click OK. Skip if this option is greyed out (already upgraded) or you prefer the older layout.
2. Select File > Library > Organize Library... > Tick Consolidate files and click OK. This will bring any files currently organised outside the designated media folder into it. NB This will create duplicate copies of any file that needs to be consolidated, and you will need to manually clean up afterwards. If space is at a premium try my scripts Unconsolidated to find out what would need moving and ConsolidatebyMoving to move rather than copy it.
3. Select Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab, uncheck Keep iTunes Media folder organized and click OK.
4. Select Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab, check Keep iTunes Media folder organized and click OK. This triggers iTunes into reorganizing everything according to your preferences.
5. (Optional) Close iTunes, rename the folder iTunes Music as iTunes Media then restart iTunes. Check under Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab that the location has automatically updated. If you can't access the media for any reason just undo the folder rename. (Not relevant in this instance).
6. (Optional - Windows only) If Windows Media Player has ever had access to your files it may have liberally scattered folder artwork files about which iTunes won't tidy up when it reorganizes things, thus leaving behind a heap of folders with artwork and no media. I've written a script for cleaning this mess up called CleanDeadArt.
PS If you really prefer the older layout, but it is already in the new one then edit the file called .iTunes Preferences.plist in your media folder and change the integer from 1 to 0 before doing step 3.

Is it permissible to upload a video on youtube with music, sounds effects, and video effects from imovie?

Lately, I've been editing and making videos for a local church in Mexico. I am not selling any of the videos. The are free to watch. However, is it permissible to upload a video with music, sound effects, and video effects from imovie? I using imovie version 10.0.2

This question comes up from time to time.
There are a number of con-men who think that they can earn a quick buck from claiming that they own the copyright to Apple’s royalty-free jingles and sound effects included with the iLife applications. These are all free to use, as clearly stated in section 2.C of the iLife Software License Agreement:
“You may use the Apple and third party audio content (“Audio Content”) contained in or otherwise included with the Apple software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original soundtracks for your video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual samples, sound sets, or audio content may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound files, sound effects or music beds.”

ME22N change Exchange rate type at price condition level

Hello,
In ME22N exchange rate type is 'M' by default. When a price condition has currency different than purchase order this 'M' rate is used.
Now I need to change this 'M' rate but for particular price conditions (and exchange rate type can be different for each price condition). Don't ask me why:-) This requirement comes from business consultant and he knows that there is no user exit for this. I need to modify standard. The problem concerns items price conditions.
I'm not asking you for a complete solution, but maybe you can give me a hint where to start? What is the function module which perform price calculation (where exchange rate is used) in ME22N.
I tried to change KOMK-KURST in price condition rule (the procedure which is called to check if price condition has to be calculated or not). It is called for each price condition and I know a name of price condition. But I think the exchange rate type is read at the beginning and stays unchanged even I changed KURST.
I also found function module READ_EXCHANGE_RATE, which has rate type 'M' by default. I could put my modification in place where it is called. But it is not called when I press button Update price. It is only called when I change the currency of condition and press enter. This FM is called in few places in ME22N but not when I'm refreshing prices. Maybe during a refresh it has already an exchange rate? If so, READ_EXCHANGE_RATE could be a solution, but... It is not called when price conditions are created for the very first time (when I create PO item). Maybe system calls different FM?
I also tried to use trace (ST05) to see where systems reads from TCURR, but I think some buffers are used and TCURR is not in trace.
So now I'm stuck hoping for your help.
Best regards

Hello Rafal ,

The problem is that if I set a new exchange rate type, it will be the same for all price conditions. My requirement is to have different exchange rate type for each price condition. The pricing procedure will loop at each price condition, and depending on condition name I need to have different exchange rate type.
Example:
condition XMER is in EUR and must be converted to USD (factor should be 1,234)
condition XMET is in EUR and must be converted to USD (factor should be 1,567)
Now the factor is the same for all price conditions.
I have found interesting table XKOMV. It contains price conditions and there is a field with factor value. Now I will look for the place where this table is filled with data or for the place where I can modify factor values before XKOMV is used in pricing procedure.

Problems with Dinamic Link between Premiere pro CC and After Effects CC

I'm having serious problems with dinamic link between premiere pro and after effects, really serious problems that have 2 big projects in trouble (a documentary and a video clip) and I had to redo all the work pipeline to the consumer.
The documentary for a spanish TV was made on CC 2014 and a video clip was made on CC. Both of them with a lot of after effects composition in the premiere pro timeline. Render freeze, a lot of playback issues, and many more problems... Until I decided to remove these links between premiere and after effects and render out all the after effects compositions one by one and insert as clips in premiere pro. 1 week working away with back and fourth.
I've got a huge workstation:
i7 4990
32Gb ram
GTX780 3gb
256 gb system ssd
2 Tb project storage
*All my hardware and software are update.
I know that a lot of folks are on the same huge problem and I want to ask everyone:
How do you save this?
What is your pipeline?
Are there any solution?
Best practice to use dinamic link in a huge project?
Thanks,
Ruben Gimenez.

Thank You, Jim -
Unfortunately that specifically did not work.
Based on another comment sent to me, here is what did.
In PProCC
File > Adobe Dynamic Link > New After Effects Composition
In AECC
From that composition created from PPro, I imported the project (aep) initially created in AECC from another team member. Saved the file.
Back in PProCC
File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition

Wrong exchange rates entered and documents posted need to be updated

Hi Friends,
We have a situation where wrong exchange rates were entered at the end of month and lots of documents were posted with the wrong exchange rates. All these documents need to be updated with the correct exchange rate. But system will not allow changing the exchange rate in already posted documents. One option is to do mass reversal of all the documents posted, change exchange rates to correct rates and then repost all the documents with the correct exchange rate. Is there any other better option or SAP Program available to update exchange rates in all these documents instead of doing reversal and reposting?
Thanks and regards,
Pinky

Hello,
You can do foreign currency valuation (for Vendors/ Customer/ GL balances) through TCODE: F.05 or FAGL_FC_VAL. This will ensure that as at the period end, your open items are currectly valuated. This will post the exchange difference to P&L & B/s and will automatically give you the correct picture as at the period end.
If there are lot of entries posted then Foreign Currency Valuation will be a good option. This will save lot of time in reversing and reposting all the incorrect entries.

What is Exchange Rate Revaluation and how does it impact B/L items and P/L

Dear All,
Can Any one please guide in the sense how a foreign currency revaluation impacts balance sheet and P/L items. ALso why do we need at all to do Foreign Currency Revaluation.
Pinee

Hi Pinee,
At month-end Balance Sheet accounts containing balances expressed in a transaction currency different from the Company Code base currency have to be revaluated at the ongoing exchange rate.
In relation to pure GL entries the automation of exchange rate revaluation is reached via the proper usage of:
Foreign currency GL balance sheet accounts.
GL accounts can be managed and run in a foreign currency
For a GL account in a foreign currency the account balance existing at period end is revaluated at the month-end rate.
The only accounts managed in foreign currency in the GL will typically be the Bank accounts denominated in a currency different from the Company Code base currency.
Open Item managed GL balance sheet accounts
In the case a GL account is defined as Open Item managed the system tracks each single Item posted, marking it as open or cleared.
An Open Item GL account is typically used for accounts containing distinguishable open positions.
The following account categories will be managed as Open Item accounts in the GL:
Loans: Intercompany and Third Party
GR/IR: Clearing account for Goods receipt/invoice receipt
Bank clearing accounts
All the Open Items expressed in a currency different from the Company Code currency are properly revaluated at period-end.
Balance sheet items such as Vendor balances and Customer dues are also revaluated at the month end or year end depending on th requirement.

Randomize sound Effect and play effect from a spinnerList

I have two separate questions:
I have 8 different sound effects and a spinner list, in simpler terms, what do I need to do to assign 1 sound effect to each of the selections on the spinnerList, and then have the corresponding sound effect played when the user presses a button?
Secondly, what do I need to do to make it so that every time a dofferent button is pressed, it plays a random one of those 8 sound effects?
Some sample code would be great. Thanks.

The basic approach to picking something randomly:
// here's my array of items to choose from
var strings:Array = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "h"];
// pick one of the items randomly
// Math.random() gets a random # n where 0 <= n < 1
// Multiply by array length to get a random index
// Math.floor() makes it an integer index where 0 <= n < Array.length
var s:String = strings[(Math.floor(Math.random() * strings.length))];

Importing and exporting between Final Cut Pro and After Effects

Hi,
I'm exporting PAL widescreen footage from FCP to AE, adding some fx, and then exporting back to FCP. I am rendering both ways as a QT with no compression. For some reason, the footage is coming back to FCP a little more blurry than the original footage. Can anyone please suggest how to keep the image quality the same as the original?
Thanks!

Sure, anytime.
But we've been seeing some posts about problems going between the workspaces. These color and contrast issues may or may not be related to changing color spaces from Animation to your PAL format or they may have some other cause.

Exchange rate EURX not calculate exchange rates between USD and GBP

We have set ExRt as following:
Exrt Usage Ref. crcy
EURX EMU EUR
we have "EMU" flag checked also.
We are maintaining exchange rates (EURX) for EUR with all others currencies.
We expected that, if we have a CoCode set in GBP and we post a document in USD, SAP will calculate GBP <->USD from exchange rates EURX(USD/EUR) and EURX(GBP/EUR). It seems to be incorrect because the system is ignoring EURX exchange rates and using "M" GBP-USD exchange rate and this was not expected by us.
Could you please tell me if it is correct to expect SAP calculates USD-GBP Exchange rates from EURX(USD/GBP) Exrate or I am wrong and I need to maintain "M" exchange rates for USD-GBP.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Please check the following settings :
Go to IMG --> General Settings ---> Currencies ---> Check Exchange Rate types
Select the Exchange Rate Euro and check mark the EMU check box . Save it

Different Exchange Rate between Daily Transactions and Tax Transactions

Hi All,
I would like to ask abount define Exchange Rate for tax calculation. I set our standard exchange rates (For Daily Transactions) by using exchange rate type 'M'. But I want to calculate the tax element using exchange rate type 'T'. It is because there is a different exchange rate which is used for Daily Transaction and Tax Transactions. Does anyone know a way of doing this in config to separate this exchange rate for tax calculation?
Thanks for any help,
John

I think its a bit misleading...The requirement is to post an Invoice with a base taxable amount of Exchange Rate A and a tax amount of Exchange Rate B. The Base Currency is JPY and the System Currency is SGD. So the Report S_ALR_87012357 should see the amount in SGD there. The Issue is caused by the different exchange rate on the tax amount submitted by the Vendor Invoice.
Example: Vendor Invoice Amount: 926,413.00 JPY, then we created PO to Invoice with Base Currency JPYalso amounted 926,413.00 JPY. However, in the Vendor Invoice Amount, the Tax Chargeable is 923.00 SGD (based on their exchange rate 65.66 JPY per SGD). But our Exchange Rate (System Rate) is 63.49 JPY per SGD. How can we reflect the Tax Amount as 65.66 JPY but still the correct SGD amount is based on the Vendor Original Invoice Exchange Rate 65.66 and not the System Exchange Rate, 63.49 in the same Invoice Creation (MIRO)?

Exchange rate differecen to be posted to different WBS in forex p/o

Dear Friends,
Pls note my client hv budget allocations in WBS & thru this only the procurement activities are happening. In case of import p/o the exchange rate is displayed by default when you enter the date but when the G/R-IR happens the exchange rate differs and the difference is posted to the respective stock account as per the customization settings. Their requirement is they want the system to post this exchange rate difference to different WBS along with G/L account automatically which they shall create only for this. I tried this OBYC (KDM) but their only the G/L can be assigned & not WBS.
Kindly help if any configuration settings needs are required ?
Thank You

Hi Shashi,
As per Accounting Standards, the asset must be valued on the exchange rate on the date which risk and reward is transferred from seller to buyer.
For example If the vendor despatch the assets on 01.03.2014 at his place and contract is Exworks then the asset must be valued on exchange rate on 01.03.2014. Lets assume exchange rate on that day is 1USD=60INR. The price is 100 USD. You receive the assets on 10.03.2014 and exchage rate on that day is 55 INR. Now if you make GR on 10.03.2014 Asset value will be 5500 INR whereas as per AS it should be 6000 INR. That is why when you do MIRO the differnce between 6000 and 5500 is posted to asset.
When you do MIRO you must enter currency(USD) in Basic data tab and exchange rate 60 in details tab.
What happens in your system is standard behavior of SAP as well as correct process as per Accounting Standards.
Hope it is clear.

Exchange rate difference while posting ME21N MIGO and MIRO

Hi All,
I am facing one problem with exchange rate type between M and EURX and EURX is maintanined in the SPRO>SAP Netweaver>General Settings>currencies>Check Exchange rate types
EXRT : EURX
Usage    : EMU Reg,fixed
Ref.Curr    : EUR
Buy.ra.at
Sall .Rat.At
Inv
EMU   :X
FIXED
Scenario:
Company(USD) is maintaning Exchange rate type: M and no exchange rates are maintained for USD:EUR or EUR:USD.
Eur is maintaing in Exchange rate type EURX.
1) PO (ME21N) is posting for the Vendor on posting date 01/01/2008. Transaction currency is EUR and company code currency is USD and Quantity : 25000
--> Exchange rate 'M' is not maintained for EUR and values are picking from the EURX Type. In the PO, Exchange rate is picking correctly from the EURX table entries on 01/01/2008.
2) MIGO: GR is posted on 01/25/2008 and with 15000 Quantity. Exchange rate is getting currecly from the table on 01/25/2008.
3) MIRO: IR is posted on 02/15/2008 and Vendor Account is picking correct exchange rate from the table but GR/IR account is caluculations EUR:USD is differntly .
Note: It is not GR based IR.
Ex:
PK AC                DESCRIPTION                    Tran Curr (EUR)    Local Curr USD
31 5004789     Vendor Account                       24,718.48-            38,777.12- USD
86 2525000      A/P-GR/IR NON-INV                24,718.48            38,883.73 USD
91 6584785      SERV-OTHER O/S                    0.00                 106.61- USD
Here GR/IR account is cal dirrently.
4) Credit Memo posted against IR on 03/25/2008. Exchange rate is given while posting CM same as Invoice. But system rate is different. Here also how the GR/IR is calculating is question is it not taking from Table or from any other rate types . Same problem like IR for GR/IR account.
Entry is posted like
PK ACC         Description                            Tran curr(EUR) Local curr(USD)
21 5004789     Vendor                                   24,718.48        38,777.13 USD
96 2525000     /P-GR/IR NON-INV                   24,718.48-      38,892.22- USD
81 6584785     SERV-OTHER O/S                     0.00            115.09 USD
This problem is same like GR and also SPL document is posting differenly for ZG and ZL ledger.
ZL ledger is posting same like Accounting CM document ZG is posting with the different amount . This different amount is nothing but the exchange rate as per the posting date 03/25/2008. Exchange rate on 03/25/2008 is differe from IR date 02/15/2008 .
ZL ledger is calculating based on the 02/15/2008 date and ZG ledger is calculating based on the 03/25/2008 . Difference between Exchange rate entered in the CM and 03/25/2008 table entry rate is showing exchange rate difference field in the Addtional field in the document display.
Thanks in Advance.

Dear Friends,
Thanks for your helpful answers, actually we are in big export business. So we have to clear 100s of invoice lines with payments at one go, (which obviously being booked at different dates) so it would be very difficult for the user to go one by one invoice.
My concern is, why system does not calculate exchange rate difference based on actual documents, i.e. Invoice to payments only. I think there might be some configuration needed to implement this functionality.
Please help.
Regards
