Convert dollars in a spreadsheet to a foreign exchange rate

Is it possible to convert the numbers that I have in U S dollars in a spreadsheet that
I need to convert to a foreign exchange rate.
If possible can someone please let me know or steer me to a web link that has the instructions.
Thank you,
Greg

As jaxjason wrote, we must know a site offering conversion rates to be able to give you an automatic soluce.
Maybe someone is able to trace the way the calculator grabs the conversion rates.
This French site converts returns the value of 1 EURO in dollars.
http://fr.finance.yahoo.com/convertisseur/convert?amt=1&from=EUR&to=USD&submit=C onvertir
but I don't know the way to force it to download in a csv file.
There is a second problem.
The downoaded file is named quotes.csv like the one used to grab the quotes.
It will be necessary to find a way to switch the file treatment given the doc's contents.

  • Foreign exchange rate issue

    Hi all
    Has anyone come across this issue before? If so, any guidance on how you resolved this would be much appreciated.
    I have Plants Abroad active and I have a company code in France with a local currency as EUR but a foreign plant in the UK with a country currency of GBP. 
    France uses a Central bank rate but the UK allows for a market rate to be used.  In the UK you can also produce invoices in a currency other then GBP as long as you show the exchange rate used and amount in GBP.
    When you receive a USD invoice you are required to match the exchange rate used by the Vendor in order for your country currency tax amount to equal the amount in GBP on the invoice (i.e. you reclaim what the vendor has charged). However, when entering the incoming invoice under your UK VAT registration there is no field to enter the exchange rate used by the Vendor on the invoice as the only manual exchange rate field available is used for transaction currency (USD) to company code currency (EUR). Therefore your country currency tax amount will differ to the Vendor and this is incorrect.
    Thanks

    Hi Aldo
    Thanks for your reply.
    I'm using FB60, Post Vendor invoices.
    The problem is SAP will only convert the doc currency USD to local currency EUR. However, I need to capture the exchange rate used by the supplier (specified ont he invoice) to mirror the VAT amount on the invoice, which is in GBP.
    Legally, the VAT amount must be shown in GBP, but the doc currency can be in any currency, e.g. USD.
    I hope this clarifies the issue.
    Thanks

  • BILLING TO ACCOUNTING - FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE IN THE PAST

    Hi All,
    1.     In FI, we are maintaining translation rates on regular basis and the translation (FI)/ pricing (SD) date is our reference in SD transactions from Contract to Billing.
    2.     In Contract, we maintain foreign currency, exchange rate, and pricing date.  Here in the contract, we are currently billing an item in the past using exchange rate in the past as well.
    3.             However, when we pass this to billing, pricing date is updated on its current date.
    4.             Because of this, accounting entry that was recognized was also translated on current date.
    Is there any way that we can change the pricing date to the Billing Document so that the accounting entries will pick up translation rates maintained in the past.  Please advise.

    The issue was resolved by also maintaining exhange rate inside SO/Contract in "Exchange-Rate Accounting" field.

  • Changing foreign exchange rate on posted revenue/reversal  in SAP

    Hi Friends
    Can you please help me on the following issue
    We have a Japanese order where we  have booked in Period 4 2011 and reversed revenue in period 6 2011. 
    The reversed revenue used the period 6 JPY rate to convert to USD.
    However, the revenue should have used the last billing period rate which was in period 4 2011. 
    Is it possible to change the rate on the period 6 revenue to the period 4 JPY rate? 
    Can someone help us to direct if any systematic solution for this issue or do we have to do the manual revenue entry ?
    Please advice
    Thanks
    Larry

    Hi,
    Not sure if you are from the Finance stream; but the system behaviour is correct.  You have recognized revenue in a different period.  The only way you would have the same rate is; if you reverse the revenue in the period of recognition.  As periods are different, the fx impact should also be different.
    Cheers

  • Foreign Exchange Rate Type - M and EURO

    Hi All,
    My customer is maintainng the M exchange rate type as
    1 USD = 106 JPY
    along with this they are maintiaing a extra Exchange rate Type EURO as
    106 JPY = 1 USD
    Comany Code Currency is JPY.
    In the document Type level they are not maintaing any of the exchage rate type. Means system is picking default exchnage rate type. As we know M is the default exchange rate type.
    So, now customer doesnt want to maintain the EURO exchange rate type.
    So,  i want to know
    1. if customer not want to maintain the EURO exchange rate then it would give any impact on the working.
    2.Is any realtion between to maintain the two exchnange rate type.
    3. On a document level, can we know that by using which exchnage rate it was processed. whether its was processed from M or EURO. We want to know the Exchange rate type of each document.
    4. In M Exchane rate type we have both Direct and Indirect Quotation for same currency pair. So in this case which qutation system would take for the document processing as default quotation for a exchange rate type M.
    Looking for early response.
    Sachin

    1. if customer not want to maintain the EURO exchange rate then it would give any impact on the working.
    <There is no impact as long as this is not used by any other applications. For eg, In controlling, project system, budget, at FI document type level etc, we have option of choosing different exchange rate.
    2.Is any realtion between to maintain the two exchnange rate type.
    No relation
    3. On a document level, can we know that by using which exchnage rate it was processed. whether its was processed from M or EURO. We want to know the Exchange rate type of each document.
    < You can see this at Table level eg - BKPF. But at front end I dont think it is possible atleast upto 4.6C4. In M Exchane rate type we have both Direct and Indirect Quotation for same currency pair. So in this case which qutation system would take for the document processing as default quotation for a exchange rate type M.
    <To my knowledge, System will not allow to maintain rates in both types. so question of option doesnt come>

  • Foreign Exchange rate for INR to EURO

    Hello,
    I want to maintain Exchange rate for INR to EURO.
    What exchange rate type "m", "EURX" or "EURX" is relevant for the conversion of INR to EURO.
    How to maintain direct & indirect rate for the same ? I understand that system is not accepting rates maintained in "Direct Quote" coloumn.
    Thanks & Rgds
    Dwijendra

    Dear Venkatesh,
    For exchange rate from INR to EURO, system will not take rates maintained under exchange rate type "m". It only considers exchange rate type "EURX".
    Hope I am clear.

  • Foreign exchange rate

    Hi gurus,
    i have entered the exchange rate using t_code OB08. our local currency is NAD so i entered direct quot 1NAD = 7 USD. but when i capture an invoice in USD i am not getting the right amount in local currency. the system is using a different rate which i don't know where it is getting it from. is there some settings that i m missing or what could be the problem? this also happens for purchase orders.
    please advice. points will be awarded.

    Hi
    Have you correctly maintained in the direct quotation ?
    Pleaase check whether it should be 1 USD = 7 NAD or vice versa..?

  • Foreign Exchange difference posted to price difference account at MIGO

    Hi,
    We have a problem regarding posting foreign exchange rate difference at the time of GR.
    We are costing materials at the beginning of year, and purchases made during the year as per PIR will result in legitimate price difference which is posted to price difference account.  Thatu2019s working alright.
    Now, due to new business requirement, we maintained PIR in MXN (Mexican peso), & standard cost is converted in local currency USD as per exch. rate maintained in OB08.
    Now, when we do GR, the difference of foreign exchange at the time of Std. cost & GR date is posted to Price difference account instead of foreign exchange account.  For eg. Std .cost of material A is 1000 MXN, and GR cost of material X is also 1000 MXN, however corresponding USD is different because of different foreign exchange rate.
    Will appreciate if someone can suggest on how can we post it to exch.rate diff.account instead of price diff. acct. ?
    Thanks,
    Nirav

    Hi,
    Thanks for your replies.
    We have already maitained exch.rate GL OBYC-KDM, which is successfully posted with the exch.rate diff.arising out of GR & IV at the time of IV.
    I'm talking about price difference in Std. cost & GR value because of exch.rate diff.
    For example, Std cost for Material A is 1000 MXN converted to $100 with exch.rate of 10. Now, GR happens with 1000 MXN converted to $200 with prevailing exch.rate of 5. Please note that std. cost and GR is the same price 1000 MXN, but USD amount is changed resulting $100 gets posted to PRICE DIFFERENCE Account, whereas we want to post it to FOREIGN Exch. diff.A/c becuase it's arising out of exch,rate difference.
    Please let me know if it makes sense.
    Thanks,

  • Report for Unrealized/Realized Foreign Exchange Payments and Receipts

    Is there a report in SAP that shows unrealized/realized foreign exchange cash receipts and payments. if yes, what is that report. Please provide transaction code.
    If not, do we need to create ABAP query. How do we create that Query in this regard. What information are we required to give the Abap person or do we create an Query ourself. How do we create it. please explain with steps.
    It is little urgent. Please reply soon.
    Thanks
    Lakshmi

    Hi Lakshmi,
    I can try to explain this financial funda more claraly as below:-
    Realized Exchnage rate Diffrence Gain/ Loss:-
             When the foreign currency transaction has actually completed and you have gained/lossed due to that transaction is called as realized gain/loss.
             For example you have purchased the goods on 01 Jan, 2008 for 5000 INR (100 USD) on credit. Now on 16th Jan, 2008 you paid the invoice by paying 100 USD and clear it off. But on 16th Jan, the exchange rate between INR: USD came down to 45. So you gained by amount 500 INR (100 USD * (50-45)). This is the realized gain when you clear of the invoice againest the payment.
    UnRealized Exchnage rate Diffrence Gain/ Loss:-
             Here the foreign exchange rate diffrence appear but not realized, because the transaction is not cleared up.
             Taking the scenario above, if you do not pay on 16th jan and invoice remains open. You run the F.05 at month end to revaluate the open items and on 31st Jan, the exchange rate came down at 48 INR per USD. Then F.05 will show the unrealized gain of 200 INR (100 USD * (50-48)).
    I hope that this clarifies the things. if yes, please assign some points.

  • MIRO - Postings during Foreign invoices - Exchange rate variance

    Hi
    I noticed while posting foreign exchange PO's where there is both price variance and exchange rate difference the system posts price variance in foreign currency with a local currency amount of 0 and posts foreign exchange variance in local currency with a foreign currency amount of 0.
    can someone explain whether this is standard SAP? What is the logic? How do we do reporting in such cases?
    Thanks
    Raj

    Hi,
    As far as foreign exchange rate variance the entries are correct. The difference will be only in Local Currency and not in transaction currency. For example if the transaction currency is USD and Local currency is INR, when there is a change in exchange rate the difference is recorded only in INR. As far as USD is concerned there is no change.
    Thanks

  • Purchase Order in Foreign Exchange

    Business Process Flow:
    Material Requirement Generated from Project - Reservation will be created against the requirement – Run MRP based on the WBS element by selecting the Creation Indicators to Create Planned Orders – Convert the Planned Order into Purchase Requisition – Purchase Requisition will be created in the Company Code Currency (Local Currency) – Create Purchase Order with reference to the Purchase Requisition in the Foreign Currency (Euro), maintained Exchange rate at Header Level and the Exchange rate is not Fixed – Goods Received and the Material Document will be created – Invoice will be created with reference to the Purchase Order – Material Document and Invoice Documents are updated in Purchase order History in the Item Details of the Purchase Order.
    Now the Issue is: Material Document Created and Updated in the Purchase Order History in the Item Details of the Purchase Order. The Amount Values that System Maintained in Local Currency and Purchase Order Currency at Item Details in the Purchase Order History for the Material Document are not matching according to the Exchange Rates Maintained in Exchange Rate Table. In the Item Details Purchase Order History, the Purchase Order Currency (EURO) amount is required to maintain the same amount that is maintained While Creating the Purchase Order according to the quantity received, and the Amount in the Local Currency required to maintain based on the Material Document Date and Exchange Rate Maintained in the Exchange Rate Table.

    Hi ,
    See if your exchange rate is not fixed at PO header . This type of issue will keep on coming . Just keep the exchange check item fixed . Your problem will be resolved .
    Thanks

  • Calculating foreign exchange

    i have to compute for x= y * foreign exchange. I can compute this by using saved assumptions or variables. But i like to use the currency conversion feature of Hyperion Planning. Can anyone give me a step by step on how can i used this feature to be able to get the value of x.
    Thanks,
    Hanson

    Hi,
    These currency conversion rules run for all accounts whichever you set Currency as data type.
    Accounts are converted using different types of rates depending on their account type. Expense accounts use monthly average rates, balance sheet accounts use period ending rates. You can customize these scripts if you like.
    they are created as calc scripts in essbase. You can find the script under scripts node in aas then convert that into a business rule to make it run on specific members etc.
