Currency revaluation in Parallel Currency

Hi,
Having set up parallel currency (currency type 40) in FI and FI-AA. Local Currency is CNY; Parallel Currency is USD.
As soon as a time lag exists between two activities i.e. incurring costs in January - settlement and capitalize costs in March a different translation rate is applied to CNY/USD. Therefore a difference in USD incurrs.
Is there a way to revaluate parallel currency differences within standard SAP?
Is there a way to post clear this difference manually in the parallel ledger in USD without influencing the main ledger in CNY?
Technical infos: SAP ECC 6.0 without new G/L

Hi,
first of all, you cannot avoid this differences, but this is completely OK.
Of course you can revaluate in currency type 40. The posting would be then like this:
(original account to be revaluated vs. P/L gain/loss account):
Amount in doc.currency = 0 xxx
Amount in company code currency (CT 10) = 0 CNY
Amount in hard currency (CT40) = xxx USD.
So only the items / balances in CT40 are changed, no impact on CNY.
HOw to achieve this: either you run F.05 (SAPF100) for currency type 40 (recommended) or you post manually in F-05, this transaction allows you to enter the value of 0 in any amount field (at least 1 amount, in this case, CT40 USD amount, must be of course greater than zero) without converting the doc.currency and/or local currency amounts immediately.
Hope that helps, points welcome

  • Purchase price variance line item - not to be posted in Parallel currency

    Hi All,
    Scenario:
    Transaction currency - SGD
    Local Currency - INR
    Parallel Currency 1 (LC2) - Group currency - USD
    Parallel Currency 2 (LC3) - Global Company currency - INR
    Import PO - MIGO - MIRO
    PO is raised in foreign currency.
    Material master price control is maintained in 'S'.
    While doing MIGO, I am getting following accounting entries:
    Stock a/c Dr.
    GR/IR a/c Cr.
    Price variance* a/c Dr.
    *The price varaince is because of difference in my material price as per material master and PO.
    If I go and check in FBL3N, I can see all the line items in Transaction, Local currency and 2 Parallel currencies.
    My query is, In SAP is it possible to avoid Price variance line item posting to Parallel currencies.
    To my knowledge I know that it is not possible to avoid a single line to post it to Parallel currencies.
    Thanks in advance.

    This is the answer from OSS
    Dear Customer,
    the system works as designed.
    When Material Ledger is activated, price differences are always
    generated under the circumstances you have described. The reason is
    that when material ledger is activated, price differences must not be
    included into the stock changes value, otherwise the system would
    not be able to calculate an actual price.
    When Material Ledger is activated, the customizing setting
    for handling price differences in the subcontracting process has no
    effect.

  • 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.

    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.

    Hi,
    Check in t.code: OB22. the 'source currency' used for translation in . There are two options:
    1     Translation taking transaction currency as a basis
    2     Translation taking first local currency as a basis

  • Foreign Currency Revaluation for company code with multiple currencies

    My company code has the following parallel currencies:
    company code currency - USD (10)
    group currency - CAD (30)
    index currency - USD (50)
    transaction currency - CAD
    When I execute F.05 for valuation of CAD open item in currency code 10, the program only posts adjustments to the company code currency 10; no postings to
    index currency 50. As a result, my Revaluation document does not have balanced company code currency and index currency. 
    For example:
    Open item                     = CAD 1,000
    company code currency = USD 990
    group currency              = CAD 1000
    index currency              = USD 990
    Revaluation adjustment = USD 5
    This adjustment is only posted at company code currency; no posting for Index currency.
    As a result, company code currency is USD 995 but index currency remains at USD 990.
    Pls. advise corrective measures.
    Thanks!

    Currently, I have the following settings:
    Chart of Accounts           xxxxx
    GL account                    xxxxx
    Currency                        blank
    Curr type                        blank
    F.05 calculates foreign currency adjustment based on above.  I tried your proposed solution, and added new entries for currency USD and curr types 10 & 50, but still the program does not post to curr 50, only to curr 10.

  • Parallel currency valuation for material management

    Dear all,
    My comapny is maintaining parallel currency in company code in new GL, does this impact material management also.
    Should we need to activate material ledger for parallel valuation in material management, but the company is not actually into production but it still require activation of material ledger.
    Regards,

    Hi Shilpa,
    How I understand it using the U.S as my example:
    In the first transaction code, in other words, F.05 or FAGL_FC_VAL  are used if the currency in the transaction is not the same as the local currency of the company.  For instance, U.S GAAP mandates companies to report their financial statements in local or functional currency.  So let's say the transaction currency for a U.S company code is/was GBP.  However, GBP is not the local currency of the U.S company code so you would to have perform foreign currency valuation with any of the above named transaction codes using the exchange rate of the key date specified at the time of the valuation.  This valuation will then give you a gain or loss as a result of differences between the original amount and the revaluated amount.
    The second transaction code FAGL_FC_TRANS valuates the balances or additional currencies.  But to be able to run this second transaction code, you would first have to perform FAGL_FC_VAL or F.05 first (this is a prerequisite). 
    So even if you are to perform currency translation, you will still need to run FAGL_FC_VAL first.
    Regards,
    Elias

  • Report for foreign currency revaluation - FAGL_FC_VAL

    Hello Experts,
    I have executed FAL_FC_VAL - Foreign Currency Revaluation Program. System posted some accounting entry for the same. However, I want to know how system calculated and for which invoices it calculated.
    For this I want a report from SAP, for foreign currency revaluation. Please let me know the TCode for the report.
    I can see some output on screen, showing calculation, during test run. But it does not get saved anywhere.
    Please help

    Hello Ms Meena,
    You can achieve to have this if you are in ECC 6.0 by activating the Logs to be stored.
    This can be done via FAGL_FC_VAL & go to the last tab as below.
    Precondition : Make sure before user run the revaluation they click on both tick mark.
    Click on Logs
    give the date when they it is run & execute
    Select the log
    Here you can select your fields like vendor name/customer name/GL account Name.
    I would strongly suggest to create a variant by yourself & save & then ask the user to change the date to revaluation everymonth.
    Many thanks

  • Issue with Asset Managemenet (parallel Currencies)

    This message is from my customer:
    Capital investments are kept in Asset Managemenet (FI-AA),  balances are integrated part of FI-GL, shown on respective accounts.
    Within AM, multiple valuation areas exists, as an asset underly different rules, depending of it's accounting (book) value and tax value etc.
    Therefore, we have one area (01) representing the book value, - which is also the GL-balance. In addition, AM keep another area (10) representing the tax value.
    Finally, we have a third area representing the difference between Tax and book, (called 'delta'), and these values are posted to GL as 'more/less  depreciation', enabling us to report both 'Accounting books' and 'Norwegian tax books'. This 'delta posting' is part of standard, monthly depreciation run.
    We have a challenge in the case were we have USD as functional currency, in an entity registrated as Norwegian a/s.
    Norwegian tax authorities require the tax values of the depreciation to be based on historical NOK-investments.  Both FI-GL and FI-AA support the parallel currency
    accounting, but not when it comes to the handling of the 'delta-values'. In this case, the initial investments are kept in histotical NOK in AM, and in AM the NOK-investment is depreciatied in the tax area. However, when the delta-posting is done, this is done in USD only (based on area 01 and 10), and the parallel NOK-value of this transaction is translated based on exchange rate on transaction date, NOT the historical NOK-value.  The consequense of this is that the tax-books in NOK is incorrect, and there is a need to do manual adjustments, based on tiresome spreadsheet calculations.
    Now: is this the only way SAP handles parallel currencies in AA/AM? No way to configure it to use historical exchange rates at all?
    If this cannot be changed within SAP, has anyone else solved this kind of problem and might help me getting started?

    Hello!
    Does someone have answers to this:
    From SAP Help:
    The central procurement and processing of data for an asset takes place
    in the logical database ADA in the FI-AA component. One of the functions
    that is carried out in the database is currency translation. Currency
    translation for a currency that is different from the company code
    currency is carried out according to a translation method that you
    define in FI-AA Customizing.
    Where do i find this customising?
    If the parameters of this standard translation method do not meet your
    needs, you can define your own individual translation method using this
    SAP enhancement.
    Activities
    Follow the procedure outlined below:
    <b>
    1.  Activate enhancement project AMGS_001.
    2.  Modify function module EXIT_SAPLAMGS_001. Enter your own code in the
        included program ZXBADU03.
        When the enhancement project is active, the system uses the function
         module at the corresponding positions in the logical database.
      3.  Define a translation method in FI-AA Customizing (Information
          System) that uses translation date 3 (own translation).
    </b>
      Parameters
      The following transfer parameters are available for function module
      EXIT_SAPLAMGS_001:
      o   I_AMOUNT (amount in local currency)
      o   I_ANLAV (master data for the asset)
      o   I_AFABER (depreciation area)
      o   I_BERDATUM (report date)
      o   I_UMVAR (translation method)
      The translated amount is expected as a return value in the field
      E_AMOUNT. This value is then transferred to the respective report.
    This looks promissing But has anyone tried this exit, EXIT_SAPLAMGS_001?
    Will it work for me?

  • Parallel currencies in Asset

    Hello
    In our case Legal valuation & Profit Centre valuations are active with currency INR.  In the Depreciation areas for Asset account, I have copied reference 0IN and I have kept two depreciation areas 01 (book) & 15 (tax).  However, while trying to post in Asset accounting, system is giving error:
    " Company code 1000 manages parallel currencies in Asset Accounting.  For each area that posts automatically online to FI, you have to define one dependent depreciation area that adopts both identical values and depreciation terms from depreciation area 01, and which is assigned to currency type 12 and currency INR.  There is no depreciation area of this type defined for depreciation area 01."
    I am not able to get which depreciation area I should maintain for this in the Chart of Depreciation. Please help me.

    Hello,
    You got the error message AC496 because your company code is defined with additional local currency(ies) in FI (see table T001A).                                                                               
    As the message AC496 states, in this case you have to define one   dependent depreciation area that adopts both identical VALUES and   depreciation TERMS from depreciation area 01, and which is assigned to currency type 12 and the currency.                                                                               
    Asset Accounting > Valuation > Currencies >  Specify the Use of Parallel Currencies                                  
    Check if  the Chart of Depreciation (which is assigned to your  company code) has no depreciation area which is assigned  to another currency type.
    Make sure that the 'idetical' flag has been on for your specific depreciation area.                                                                               
    T093A like it should be, when depreciation area XX should be the  parallel depreciation area:

    XX    01     01          X      X                           ZZZZ   X                 12                                                                               
    You need definetely one area with currency type 12.                         
    Otherwise you cannot post anything to asset books.

  • Parallel currency in company code require material ledger activation

    Hello,
    I have a requirement where the company is using parallel currency in NEWGL concept with two different currencies INR and USD.
    I want to have a clarification whether I Need to activate Material ledger with parallel currency.
    1. Company is using parallel currency with only one legal valuation view.
    2. There is no requirement for product costing in the company.
    Can the balance in general ledger can be seen in both currency for inventory balances.
    Awaiting for your inputs
    Thanks

    If you don't need parallel currency at present, there's no need to configure it. Why should that be a problem, as long as your Business needs are not relevant to using a parallel currency?
    I suspect your actual query is details regarding the future problems that you might face when, faced by changed Business scenarios, you are forced to introduce parallel currency at a future date
    If my suspicion is correct, I suggest you look at SAP Note 39919. It's an old note - but one that I've found contains quite relevant tips and tricks about introducing parallel currency in a productive environment.
    Remember to assign points if found useful.

  • Material master upload with Parallel currency

    Hi,
    I have done a good research on this forum to solve my issue. Could not find any and hence starting a new post. Hope to find a solution. Helpful answers will be rewarded.
    Our company is using Parallel Currency (Hard Currency).
    Whenever a material is created, the Hard currency is calculated automatically in Accounting 1 view
    My query is:
    While uploading the material master using RMDATIND, is there any way we can overwrite the Hard currency? I could not find any suitable fields to fill this value.
    Alternatively i am thinking of using BDC on MM02 to change the Price unit and BDC on MR21 to change the standard price of the hard currency. Which seems very cumbersome.
    Any good solution will be appreciated.
    thanks in advance.

  • Foreign Currency Revaluation of open items in ECC6

    Hello,
    while running the foreign currency revaluation of GL open items via FAGL_FC_VAL, I notice that open items on our VAT account are revaluated.
    the account is flagged for balances in local currency only and open item management.
    I am very suprised to see this account popping up in the revaluation. This was not the case in previous releases.
    How can I prevent this,
    kr
    Nico

    Hello,
    I understand that you DO NOT want to revaluate VAT accounts (which make sense).
    Check if those accounts are included on FCR customizing and remove them.
    As an additional check exclude them from program's variant and they will not be selected nor revaluated.
    My question is how the program revaluates posting on VAT accounts if they are open item managed? Revaluation of open items accounts should need a not open item account in order to post the postings.
    Regards
