Default Exchange rate type at document type level for parallel currencies

Hi,
I have a scenario wherein 2 parallel currencies have been maintained (Grp & index based) against a Co Code and have maintained a default exchange type (Z2) in the Document type settings (OBA7).
But when I want to post a foreign currency document, system picks Z2 rates for Co Code currency conversion and not for Grp & index based. In fact it picks M rate for these addtional currencies.
I know that for parallel currencies, the system will always use the exchange rate type defined in transaction OB22 ( "M" rate) which is at Co Code level but I want default exchange rate type Z2 to be picked at Document Type level for all the parallel currencies.
Please suggest how to archive this.
Thanks,
Sam

Dear Sam,
The exchange rate type defined in the FI document type (-> field
exchange rate type in transaction OBA7) is only used for the currency
translation from transaction/document currency into first local
currency, not for the currency translation into second local (group)
currency or for the currency translation into third local currency.
The exchange rate types for the currency translation into second
local (group) currency and third local currency are defined in
transaction OB22.
Unfortunately there is no option to change the exchange rate of 2nd or
3rd local currency in our posting transactions. The design doesn't
regard that requirement. But you have the chance to adjust the parallel
currencies in OB22 or to change the amounts manually.
I hope this helps.

Default Exchange Rate Type

Dear All,
If we do not assign any exchange rate type to any document type or customer / vendor master data, the system picks the default 'M' exchange rate type. Can anyone let me know where this default setting has been made and whether this setting can be changed? What if I do not maintain exchange rates for 'M' instead I do it for 'M1'
I have a scenario, wherein I want to make exchange rate type other than 'M' as default and we do not want to make it at the document type level or customer / vendor master data level.
To make things more clear, this is not related to the realignment / foreign currency valuation. This is related to recording of invoice export / import or credit / debit notes..
Can anyone let me know how would this be possible?

Hi Swapvik,
The exchange rate type always is set "M" as default. The only way to
change the exchange rate type is with the customizing in the document type. If you are running the automatic payment program, you can also select a different exchange rate type. However, for normal document postings (trans. FB01), there is no other solution but to choose a different document type.
For example:
If you want to use exchange rate type B instead of M, in customizing you have to give Alt Ex.Type as B against M. So that it will take B rate whenever M is applicable. If you want this B rate to be applicable for specific document types then you can do the same at document type definition itself. Otherwise you can do the same At Payment program level/ Revaluation. These are the only places where exch.type comes into picture.
Please be advised that you can not change the default exchange rate type
for the 1st local currency. The default type for 1st local currency KURST of M cannot be changed. SAP does not allow for customers to setup a company code with an exchenage rate type other than M for the 1st local currency (because this could lead to exchange rate differences in the system which are not allowed).
Exchange rates are defined in SAP at a Global level via transaction OB08. In the IMG documentation for transaction OB08 (path General Settings > Currencies > Enter exchange rates) it explains that:
'The exchange rates apply to all company codes'
'The system uses the type M exchange rates for foreign currency
translation when posting and clearing documents. An entry must exist in
the system for this exchange rate type. The exchange rates apply to ALL
Company Codes.'
Hope this information helps.

Exchange rate in billing document

Hi,
I am facing issue in determining the exchange rate in billing document. During billing document creation, system is picking the exchange rate based on the item level exchange rate. This exchange rate is determining based on the pricing date but this pricing date in billing document is equal to the sales order pricing date. But my requirement is to determine exchange rate based on the billing date.
I done the following settings -
1. Maintained the exchange rates in exchange rate table
2. Defined copy control between delivery to billing and in that maintained pricing exchange rate settings as
C Exchange rate determination according to billing date
But still system is determining the exchange rate based on Condition Pricing date which is copied from the sales order (sales order pricing date is equal to billing pricing date).
Please help, how to make pricing date as today's date or billing date
Regards
Goutham

Hi,
u can achive though copy controls vtfl u go to there item level u find exchange rate type 'C' Pricing date will based on billing date.

Exchange rate according to document date

Hello all,
We are creating PO and then Goods receipt. I need to change exchange rate according to document date while creating Goods Reiceipt. We have done few customizing changes for this. Translation date has been updated with the document date but exchange rate is still derived from posting date. My new translation date is ignored for exchange rate derivation. If Where should be a problem?
I looked into note 619330 for this issue. If someone has implemented this note already for this issue, could you please let me know whether this note will solve this issue?
Thanks,

PO exchange rate in GRN document

Hi All
Without maintaining the exchangerate in Table(ob08), i want flow the PO exchange rate in MIGO document.
that is my (GRN) documents should update with PO exchange rate. System should not pick(exchange rate from table).
Can any one tell me how can i do?
Regards
M S K

Hi
As per standard the PO exchange rate gets automatically determined based on the values maintained in Configuration OBO8.
If you want the GRN to be based on a fixed exchange rate then you can flag the exchange rate fixed indicator in the PO header tab Delivery/ Invoice.

BADI exchange rate according to document date instead of posting date

Hello,
I am looking for a BADI that will enable us to change the exchange rate according to document date instead of posting date.
This change is needed for documents of travel expenses.
I tried to use substitution but it didn't work for documents created in Tcode PRRW.
Thank you,
Dan

Friend,
Try to use Field exit functionality.
You can create field exit for Translation date(WWERT). While currency converstion this date only taken as base.
Technically you can pass Doc.Date(BLDAT) value to Translation date.
Or in Substituton(GGB1) also for the header "Transaltion date = Docu.Date".
I hope it serves your purpose.

Movement type and document type

All SAP Gurus,
I know the movement type (541, 543, 261, 262, 281, 282, 601, 602). How to know the Document type of thpes?
Thanks,
R. rajan

Hi
Document types are attached to the transaction being used, not to the movement types.
You can check the same in transaction OMBA or
SPRO-> Materials Management-> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory-> Number Assignment-> Define Number Assignment for Accounting Documents
Under Allocated document types to transactions in the transaction click on the Goods issue document type
For the Transactions you can see the Document types attached
These transactions are attached to the Movment types in OMJJ transaction, select the movment type click on Allowed transactions page.
So based on the transaction attched to the Movement type the
document type is determined for the Movement types.
Movemnt type Linked to Transaction & Transaction linked to Document type.
Thanks & Regards

No archive information found for object type and document type

Hi All,
When i try to view the print preview for a perticular doc type, system is giving the error as "No archive information found for object type and document type"
Diagnosis
    No information was found about optical archiving. This may be due to
    either of the following reasons:
    1. No valid archiving parameters were passed
    2. Your system is not configured for optical archiving
System Response
    Processing is cancelled.
Procedure
    Specify valid archiving parameters or check whether your system is configured for optical archiving

Hello,
You are trying to Print & also archive by selecting the option Print & Archive.
You have to do archivelink configurations and then create document type and assign to the object type with content repository with archivelink table.
If you want to archive the spool or output then you have to use object type as DRAW. If you are archiving invoice document or letters or so on then you have to know the object type/Business object of the transaction.
Please note that for archivelink configuration, attachment will be either stored in archive server or in SAP database table based on business requirement.
Hope this will give you some understanding on archiving area.

To create new billing type and document type and put restriction for any pa

Hi,
please let me know the procedure for creating new billing type.
Can we restrict billing type to document type for any particular country by defining it in user exit.
Rgds,
Dharmesh

Hi,
>
> please let me know the procedure for creating new billing type.

Goto menu SPRO->Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing documents -> Define billing types. Here highlight one of the standard SAPbilling type (which may be relevant to your business requirements), then click on copy as button to create a new one. You need to name that should start with Z, for example ZF2 and then save it.
>

This you can achieve in copy control settings. Go to menu SPRO->Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing documents -> Maintain copy control for billing documents. Here you can select, according to your scenario, copy control to deliverydocument to billing document or Sales docuement to billing document.
Then, here also you can copy the standard copy control document types provided by SAP, and rename to your newly created Zdocument type. The source doucment (delivery or sales order) is normally assigned to a particular sales organization (which to a company code). Normally the company code is created in a particular country, hence the billing document falls only on that country.

Exchange rate on approved document

Dear experts,
I have a scenario where while i raise a marketing document like Purchase Order. My exchange rate on the table is 1 Dollar = 81 KSH. When i raise a purchase order i change the exchange rate on the document to 80. If this document goes for approval the exchange rate picks from the table but if it doesnt it remains as 80. Does anyone has a reason why this could be the case cause i should be able to edit the my document to a different exchange rate and maintain that on the document. please advice
Regards,

Hi,
What B1 version are you using ? I am afraid it could be bugs.
Log a message to SAP support. They can provide solution for that.
Other cause is the approval document is performed in the day after document created. However, it should not change the rate. You could also read the ees pdf file on exchange rate from SAP AG
