Clearing foreign currency payments against local currency bank account

Hi all
We have foreign currency invoices (eg in USD, EUR) and would like to pay these from a AUD domestic bank account. Is this common practice or does the client need to enter such invoices in their external bank specific terminal to process such payments if they have a domestic currency bank account.
How does the Electronic bank Statement (which is in AUD) clear these foreign currency invoices (EFT clearing account or suspense account). I presume we would have to post to a suspense account clearing and then do a manual post with clearing after loading the bank statement. However, the amounts do not balance to zero as i cannot clear items off as they are in different document currencies as noted below.
INVOICE
cr vendor 100USD   200AUD - cleared by payment program
dr expense 100USD   200AUD
PAYMENT PROGRAM
cr Sus clg 100USD   210AUD
dr vendor 100USD   200AUD - Cleared by payment program
dr FX g/l    0USD    10AUD
ELECT. BANK STATEMENT
dr Sus clg 205AUD
cr Cash    205AUD
What would be the standard approach for such postings from an SAP bank accounting functionality point of view.
Is there a better way of design the above payment process.

Hi,
this is a hard task.
You have to play with the GL account master data. See documentation for field "Only balances in local crcy". It is quite good described for the clearing in foreign currencies.
Also I have some doubts that there were settings in FI for foreign currencies clearing, but I have never customize it.
Hope I helped you (if so... points reward would be highly appreciated )

Alex

Payment of foreign currency invoice in local currency

Hi all,
PO is created in USD and thereafter GR and IR done. The payment of this invoice has to be done in
local currency RUB. In invoice the currency field is not open for change and hence payment in

Thanks in advance.

Dear Experts,
We have a strange case, and requesting the SAP behaviour for this case.
The document (Invoice posted) in "SDR" special Dinar Rate (not standard currency), and the Local Currency is BHD - Bahraini Dinar, and wanted to pay in Foreign Currency in "EUR". mainted the payment currency in the document.
As far as I know system will check exchange rates for conversion from SDR - BHD and then BHD - EUR, so maintaining these two combinations are enough.
But strangely I am getting error while processing F110 automatic payment program, system is giving error "Enter the Rate EUR/SDR rate type M for 04.08.2010 in the system". Message No. SG - 105
I am facing this error after we upgraded to ECC 6.0 from ERP 4.7 in March 2010. Paying in EUR is rarely happens.
Awaiting your kind reply.
Regards,
Francis

Report showing GL Accounts with document posted in currency other than local currency

We need a report that shows all the GL Accounts that had a document posted in currency other than local currency during the month. The purpose of such a report is that we should not miss any Foreign Currency Gain or Loss at the end of the month.
Is there such a report already in Standard SAP ? Please let me know. Points guaranteed.

Hi Ajay sir,
It's never be a bad idea. But I think Rajeev might be looking for a stright report than work around, which is not available.

My question is
a) How and where does this payment block is triggered through configured and how to process next steps.
b) when I use F-48, how do we do the actual payment, is there a check printing and linking it to the KZ document or is check printing done outside the system and the KZ document type does not have any linkage.
c) If I do FB60 for a higher amount how do we pay partial amount.
Your response is appreciated.

Can't drag the currency key in local currency to the pool of fields not use

Hi everyone,
Hopefully you can enlighten me with this issue coz im trying to drag the currency key in local currency to the pool of fields not used (UCWB<Data Model<Data Basis<Data Model(TAB)) but nothing happened, i can't transfer it to the pool of fields not used.
Note:I came with this decision(transferring the currency key in local currency to the pool of fields not used ) because SAP prompt me with this:
The currency key in local currency is not required in the data basis. It is merely an implicit part of the data model
I really dont have any idea why i can't drag it to the pool of filed not used, i tried to look for some sap notes but i can't find one.
thanks in advance

Hi Dan,
Actually it is not really an error, i just would like to pattern the configuration of our newly upgraded BI server to our BW server.
In our BW server, the currency key in local currency is mapped to the pool of fields not used. I can't seem to do the same in the BI server because everytime I try to drag the currency key in local currency to the pool of fields not used, nothing happens, it isn't mapped.

APP-Run Payments in Local Currency

Hi,
Iam trying to process a payment in INR for the invoices which have been booked in USD. While Iam doing the log that is getting generated in APP is as follows:-
Payment with currency USD, payment method : No valid payment procedure
Configurations done:-
1.     Payment Method for Country INR maintained.
2.     Payment Methods for Company Code
            i.     Foreign Business Partner Allowed
            ii.     Cust/Vendor bank abroad Allowed
3.     Bank Determination for Payment Method Currency is left blank
When Iam processing APP the process is getting carried out in USD it should carry out in INR (local currency)
Kindly guide me were iam going wrong.
Regards
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
Check if the 'available amount' in bank determination configuration is sufficient to cover your outgoing payment.
Also, run the payment program with following flags selected on 'Additional Log' tab:
- 'Due date check'
- 'Payment method selection in all cases'
- 'Line items of the payment documents'
Then analyze Proposal Log. I've found this log to contain detailed enough information to pinpoint the problem. Alternately, you can post relevant portions of that log here.

F110- Foreign invoice paid by local currency.

Dear Guru,
We've set up all stuffs in FBZP but happened to see one small issue.
In case of foreign currency invoice, running F110 to the end we have payment document in foreign currency.
But our client wants to create payment documents in local currency.
Where should i configure?
Many thanks.
J.

Hi,
Not possible in standard SAP for APP. Automation of payment run needs to establish some rules to work it properly. You can specify an alternate currency while executing the automatic payment program.
When a vendor has invoiced you in a currency, then he also expect the payment in that currency. If you have to pay in some other currency, then book the invoice in that currency at the first place.
If you want to pay in different currency use trnsaction F-53 instead of F110 for that payment.

Gaurav

Payment Run - Clearing between Customer and Vendor and Partner Bank Account

Is there a way to have the bank details for the payment to be pulled from the vendor master if an outgoing payment is created or from the customer master if an incoming payment is created? Our requirement is to consider both vendor and customer items during payment processing. In doing so, if the net of the clearing between the customer and vendor account results in an incoming payment, we want to use the bank details specified from the customer and if the net results in an outgoing payment, we want the bank details on the vendor master to be used.
As such we tick the box on Vendor master to clear with customer and tick the box on Customer master to clear with Vendor. We have defined 2 payment methods and entered both payment methods on both the customer and Vendor. We have also entered the different bank accounts on the payment transactions tab of the vendor and customer masters.
It seems regardless of resulting payment method chosen, the bank details are getting pulled from the vendor master.

Hi,
It is possible without any doing any kind of config or master data changes
While doing F-53, after entering all the required data in open item selection screen, after getting vendor open line items, go to menu item edit->select more.
There enter account type as D and company code (customer account no's comp code) and click on process open items
So you can choose the line items from the other company code's customer also.
Thanks,
Srinu

Parallel currencies - alternative to local currency changeover to euro??

I would like to know if there are any alternatives to local currency changeover to euro?
Estonia will start using euro 1 January 2011 and we are helping an estonian company investigating alternativs to the euro changeover in SAP. I know that SAP has programs that can mange the conversion/changeover, but I would like to know the alternatives.
The company uses 2 parallel currencies today. The company code currency EEK (10) is the first local currency, the group currency (SEK) is the second local currency.
Is is possible to use the functionality of parallel currencies in OB22 in this case and set the EUR as hard currency (currency type 40)? Can this be done for a company already in production? Will we be able to see profit- and loss statements and balance sheets from day 1 after we have activated the new currency. Any problems with opens items?
Are the any other alternatives?
Could one stategy be to start at new company code with EUR as company code currency? I realize we have to copy the configuration and masterdata and transfer the balaces to the new company code. What other problems do you see with this alternative?

Hi Paul,
There is no dual currency phase, I mean not in SAP (there is a mandatory dual pricing period from july 2008 to december 2009).
As of 01.01.2009, SKK will be replaced by EUR.
The swithover can be carried out as soon as the 2008 fiscal year books closing will be done in SAP.
Hope this helps.

Amount in document currency and amount local currency in F-65

hi everybody
im doing a functional spec whereby we are getting a text file which contains data for tcode F-65
Im wondering if we can transfer amount in document currency and amount in local currency data by writing a program or we have to transfer only amount in document currency and SAP calculates amount in local currency
plz advise

i know that
but the users dont want SAP to convert the document amount, you see
they want the data uploaded to appear on the screen i.e.
if document amount is 5000 and local amount is 3500 in the file, they want these values to be uploaded
and not that document amount 5000 is uploaded and the local amount is calculated by SAP

Report for payment runs with multiple bank accounts

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a report that displays the results of a payment run(or payment runs) & throws in some payables and cash information as well. The report should include the following information:
Supplier | Source document ID | Invoice ID | External Reference ID | Payment Run ID | Payment ID | 'Supplier Bank Account' that the payment was paid to | Payment Status (or potentially invoice status) | Payment Method
I've tried combining several data sources but can't seem to find the correct sources to join in order to get all these fields...Any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
-Ben

When you enter bank details in master, update field "Partner bank type" LFBK-BVTYP with free form value, may be currency is good choice.
During invoice entry, this field is available for update, update which bank to be used for payment of this invoice. You may build logic to populate this field, like substitution to populate currency in this field during invoice posting.
During payment, system checks value in field Partner bank type in invoice and selects corresponding bank.
Hope this helps.

Getting A Payment Without Paypal Cards/ Bank Accounts

So really I thought getting money was cut and dry :I is there a way i can get the money I've been sent without having to get a bank account or card? I really just need it for my balance and then I'm done

If your a Canadian why not switch to CA Currency no conversion anywhere on that.. Paypal fees I find are very fair not to mention ebay fees are as well ... Look at what they offer your fees .. Paypal a Safe way to buy and sell almost anywhere now .. You can pay straight from bank or credit card and a pre paid card if I am not mistaken ... As a buyer they protect your money .. If you send email money transfer through your bank account and you get ripped off the bank that you pay fees to every month and for everytime you use your debit card etc etc they don't protect you at all ... Ebay which I know is of topic but for the 9-10% fees you are being exposed to customers that would never even know you existed in other words ebay is doing for you what a website and 10k inn google adwords couldn't do ... Also it makes it very issue to build a customer base in case you do want to open a site... All fees here and there are fair you just have to adjust the best you can to minimize the hurt Maybe switching to Canadian currency will do that for you .. Strong US dollars means Americans see the Canadian dollar as an instant Sale prices ... As a Canadian buyer I personally want a quick grab and go purchases and conversion rates are not part of the grab and go but many buyers do not think like me so this is just my opinion

R12 iPayment/Payments routing to multiple bank accounts

Hi All,
Can I create a single credit card sales order and capture funds from two different bank accounts.
for example, I have a credit card sales order for $100, I want to capture funds as below
BANK A - $50
BANK B - $50
How do I do that.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Rajendra,
sorry, I probably didn't specify my question enough. I didn't mean multiple House banks (bank through which we process our payments), but multiple bank accounts for one vendor account we can pay to.
The only way how we can manually pick up the right bank account to pay to, is during the invoice posting by selection of partner bank type (field BVTYP). BVTYP needs to be assigned in vendor master to each bank account. Then there is a possibility to choose.
Vendor XX should receive payments from customer in Germany (company code 01) to a different bank account than from customer in China (compnay code 02). If no partner bank type is selected during vendor invoice entry, there is a risk to pay to a wrong account as the first bank account from vendor master is choosen automatically.
Thank you very much.
Kind regards
Marcela
