Consider recon. date at ex. rate differences

In SBO 2007A PL 10 a new box was added to the exchange rate differences screen named 'Consider Reconciliation Date'. The box is not available in all SBO localizations. i would like to know in which localization the additional box is available and from which patch it exists.

I don't think this option is localization specific. It applies to SP00 too.
Thanks,

Exchange Rate Differences

Hi experts,
i understand the general concept of exchange rate differences ie Rate at which one currency may be converted into another. The exchange rate is used when simply converting one currency to another
but i need to know where it will affect in SAP and what is the use in SAP?
regards
anand

Hi Anand......
Please read teh following para......
Exchange Rate Differences
Use
When you maintain a foreign currency (FC) business partner and/or accounts, all related bookkeeping is conducted in the FC. As the bookkeeping system must also be conducted in local currency (LC), every FC transaction of this nature also is expressed in LC according to the FC exchange rate on the date of transaction. The daily fluctuations in the FC exchange rates create a situation whereby the balances in LC and FC do not match. The automatic exchange rate differences are designed to periodically recalculate the LC and FC balances, according to the exchange rate on the day the differences are calculated.
SAP Business One can provide recommendations for executing automatic journal transactions for exchange rate differences in FC business partners and accounts, correct to a given date. The function of the program that calculates exchange rate differences is to reconcile between the FC card balance and the LC balance, considering the fluctuation in the FC exchange rate.
To access the Exchange Rate Differences function, choose: Financials ® Exchange Rate Differences.
Hope this may help you to understand the concept of Exchange Rate Difference....

SGD Exchange Rate Difference JE appears in Customer Aging Report

Dear Experts,
SAP Version: 8.81
Local Currency: SGD
We perform Exchange Rate Difference for a USD BP to calculate the unrealized gain/loss during month-end, JE created successfully.
Next, we go to Customer Aging Report and select this USD BP.
When i choose to view the Aging Report in Local Currency, the USD Invoice will appear in SGD + Exchange Rate Difference JE in SGD, the total balance can appear in SGD with no problem.
When i choose to view the Aging Report in BP Currency, the USD Invoice will appear in USD + Exchange Rate Difference JE in SGD, i can't see the total balance as it is appeared as xxxxx.
Above is the behaviour in 881.
Last time in SAP 2005, when i choose to view the Aging Report in BP Currency, the Exchange Rate Difference JE in SGD will not appear, therefore i can see the total balance in USD.
What is your opinion about the behavior in 881? Will you consider it as design or issue?
Thanks.

Lay Chin

Dear all,
This problem is no longer there when upgrade to 881 Patch 08.

Problem while 're-posting' a cancelle Invoice with Exchange Rate Difference

Hi Gurus,
We are facing a problem while re-posting an Invoice with Exchange Rate Difference. I say re-posting because this invoice was previously posted and reversed on the same date. Here is the scenario along with the relevant postings:
1)
G/R is posted in September when the exchange rate for dollar was, say, Rs. 49 = 1 USD.
Posting:
Service A/C.....100 USD (Rs. 4900)
     To SR/IR Clearing A/C...100 USD (Rs. 4900)
2)
MIRO is done in October, when the exchange rate was, say, Rs. 48 = 1 USD. Thus, the exchange difference posting was done in the respective accounts.
Posting:
SR/IR Clearing A/C......100 USD (Rs. 4900)
     To Vendor A/C...........90 USD (Rs. 4320)
     To TDS A/C..............10 USD (Rs. 480)
     To Exch. Difference A/C. 0 USD (Rs. 100)
This was the correct entry, however we missed out some TDS codes and thus needed to reverse this entry and repost it.
3)
Now this invoice was reversed (T.Code MIRO) in october itself on exactly the same date on which invoice was created, and it resulted in the following postings:
Vendor A/C......90 USD (Rs. 4320)
TDS A/C.........10 USD (Rs. 480)
     To SR/IR Clearing A/C...100 USD (4800, i.e. 48 * 100, Rs.48 being the exchange rate in october)
4)
Now when we try to post MIRO again, it is posting the following entry:
SR/IR Clearing A/C......97.96 USD (Rs. 4800)
Exch. Difference A/C.....2.04 USD (Rs.    0)
     To Vendor A/C........... 85 USD (Rs. 4080)
     To TDS1 A/C............. 10 USD (Rs. 480)
     To TDS2 A/C............. 5 USD (Rs. 240)
This is a wrong entry. SR/IR clearing A/C should have been debited by 100 USD (Rs. 4900), and the Exch. Rate difference account should have been credited by 0 USD (Rs. 100)
Can someone please help us with this. What the system seems to be doing is, that when the Invoice was reversed, the value that got reversed for SR/IR Clearing A/C was 100 USD but with Rs. 4800 instead of Rs. 4900. Now, when we try to repost the invoice, the system divided this value by the exchange rate prevalent in September, i.e. Rs. 49, thus the resultant value 97.96 USD (i.e. 4800 / 49).
Please help.
Thanks!
Regards,
Angad Nagpal

Solved.
The final entry is correct, as the net result in the G/L balances is the same. For further information please refer to notes 116250 and 46564.

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
Venkatesh

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.

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.
Regards,
Kavita
Note : Please raise separate thread for different questions. Your Point No. 5 is not related to the rest.

Posting of Exchange rate differences in parallel currencies

Hello experts,,
We are on ECC 6.
When we enter an incoming invoice with MIRO and the current exchange rate differs from that in the PO, the exchange rate differences in local currency and in parallel currency (group currency) post to different accounts.
Is this a standard feature / behavior? If so, where can i find the settings.
Shouldn't the postings in all currencies (except doc currency), in the event of exchange rate difference post to the same account?
The material ledger is not active.
We have maintained a local currency and a group currency.
Example to illustrate my issue -
DC = JPY
LC = SGD
GC = USD
PO for asset.
PO value = 100000 JPY
Ex rate not fixed in the PO.
Ex rate at PO -
100 JPY = 1.6 SGD
100 JPY = 0.85 USD
Ex Rate at IR
100 JPY = 1.7 SGD
100 JPY = 0.9 USD
When IR is entered,
The exchange rate difference of 100 SGD (@ 0.1 per 100 JPY) is posted to the asset. No posting in USD (though there is a balance of 50 USD).
At clearing (Transaction FB1S - GL account clearing) the exchange rate difference (in GC only, because no balance in LC) of 50 USD (@ 0.05 per 100 JPY) is posted to the Exch. rate difference GL acct.
Thanks in advance for your advice/solution.
B. Regards,
Halaswamy

Hello,
1. You have to assign Forex GL's for the reconciliation accounts in OB09.
2. At the time of payment for incoming invoices, system can read the valuation differences and it will post to Realized Gain/Loss accounts and B/S adjustment account.
3. You can consider this amount to issue bonus to your customers.

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

Exchange rate difference screen

Forum,
Could i ask for some advice regarding the exchange rate differences screen. I currently have a scenario where i have 2 stock accounts.
One is USD$ the other is EURu20AC. These two stock accounts are normally revalued annually. The year end is: 31/01/11
I have since run the above routine for 31/01/11 and it gave me a large difference which is what i would expect to see as it hasn't been run for 12 months.
It has now been decided that the revaluation of the stock accounts will now be done monthly for the new year so I have run the exchange rate differences routine using the execution date: 28/02/11. The difference I have appearing in this months is huge. I would only expect it to me minimal as it should only revalue entries made in February (exclude those included in the previous month)? Instead, it appears to be being calculated on the overall FC amount which includes everything since the beginning.
Is this how SAP works?
Regards,
Juan

Hi Juan,
Here is some read for you. Very first line it says, the inventory valuation is for the entire stock.
It is quite likely you are getting a big difference, as US dollar has fluctuated 1.55/Euro to 1.2x /Euro. That is some 20 percent difference. You may be chosing FC rate of specific date.
Also, by any chance did you change the valuation method?

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

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.

Exchange Rate difference posting during MIRO posting

Hi ,
We are facing an issue for exchange rate difference posting during MIRO.
PO creation , GR posting & IR posting done on same date. Vendor in PO has different currency than company code currency. Exchange rate maintained in OB08 for this period is taken in PO.
PO value & GR value is same. Due to raw material cost there was price difference posted during GR posting.
(i.e. Raw material cost - GR/IR value = Price difference amount)
During posting MIGO, 3 accounts got posted.
Raw material cost account got debited & offset credit to GR/IR account & price difference account (in vendor & company code currency also)
During posting MIRO, 4 accounts got posted.
Vendor account got credited with GR/IR amount & offset to GR/IR account debit.
Exchange rate difference account got credited & offset to price difference account (in company code currency only)
Since PO creation , GR posting & IR posting done on same date, then why system has posted exchange rate difference account in local currency only during MIRO posting ?
Your inputs appreciated.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
there is a setting in configuration of logistics invoice verification where you can control the calculation and posting of exchange rate differences. If you had the setting active that exchange rate differences are calculated against a planned exchange rate, that might lead to the kind of postings you describe. Please check.
best regards, Udo

Exchange rate difference coming in BRS

Dear FICO Experts,
we created 3 bank g/l accounts like main, reciept and pmt. but currency assigned in control data is USD bcoz all transaction vll be posted in USD. We also defined house bank master data in FBZP for the same.My company code curency is INR. Now we maintain exchange rate on 1st day of the month. For e.g. we defined exchange rate as on 01/11/11 say 46 per USD and my user posted one journal entry on 03/11/11 for 1000 USD @ 47 as per bank transaction. Now when m doing BRS on 03/11/11 for the same transaction, system is taking exchange rate defined in ob08 i.e. 46 and there for while doing BRS system is showing exchange rate difference G/L for Rs 1000 (46000-47000) which i dont want. bcoz act transaction amt is 47000.
Please advice for steps to be followed.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Ravi,
Thanks for ur prompt reply but I have already done OBA1 configuration and therefore, exchange rate difference G/L is coming. My requirement is that, we dont to post any amount in exchange rate difference while doing BRS.
Thanks & Regards,
Virendra.

Exchange Rate difference in MIGO

Hello members,
During MIGO, a material document is created and subsequently an accounting document is created.
BADI has been developed as per the business requirement to post the accounting document by
taking the exchange rate as on the Document Date, wheras, the rate taken as per Material document is
posting date. Subsequently when IR is done, the sytem takes the reference of Material document
as per posting date and the exchange rate is taken as on posting date. On account of GR accounting
document(as per document date) and GR Material document(as per posting date), there exists a
difference and posted to expense account. The business requirement is the system should take
only document date for GR and IR and hence there should not be any exchange rate difference.
Whether ticking the fixed rate in exchange rate in PO will suffice or we have to make some other
settings & developments. Kindly guide.
Thanks in advance,
Sadashivan

Hi Jeyakanthan,
If we check the fixed rate, the system will pick the same rate in IR as it was in GR(Material document), the rate on the
posting date valid as per OB08. But the accounting document created for GR is as per document date which is
different from posting date and rate prevailing on document date is different. Hence, there will be a difference in the
exchange rate in GR and IR accounting documents. Any idea how the system can pick the rate as per document
date in accounting document of GR for IR postings instead of posting date?
Thanks and regards,
Sadashivan

Only reseting the cleared documents with exchange rate differences in FBRA

Hello,
we want only reset the cleared documents . We dont want to reverse the cleard documents. But When we try to do it we get a message Exchage difference are posted do you want to reverse it. Want we want to reset are in Doc.. currency. postings for August.
As i know when we have exchange rate difference we dont get an option only resettng but we get reseting and reversing.
May i know how to slove this situation.
Thank you
Chaithra

HiI
f 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
The valuation of the inventories or consumption is effectively done at the exchange rate for the goods receipt, and not at the exchange rate of the invoice. When you post the good receipts, the fixed exchange rate from the purchase order is not used, but the translation of the purchase order values to local currency is always done at the posting date of the goods receipt.
If you are using the material ledger with actual costing, the system does not include the posted exchange rate differences at period-end closing in the actual prices of the materials.
Regards
Antony
