Different exchange rate type M in different company codes

Dear all,
I am facing the following very inconvenience problem:
I am an SAP consultant and has ALWAYS set up exchangre rate type M, the same rate used for all company codes in the Group.
My new customer wants to have different exhange rates for ALL company codes, that means we cannot use exchange rate type M for all company codes. All company codes in Sweden could have the same exchange rate type and so on, since all the rates within a country is updated with the rate from banks in the particular countries.
I think a solution could be to create worklists for every country and to always maintain all the rates against the local currencies within the country. This means in Sweden all the rates will be maintained against SEK, but never in any other way. That menas we can never maintain the rates from SEK to EUR in Sweden, we only maintain the rates against Sweden. I Finland however, all rates will be maintained against EUR (the local currency för all company codes in Finalnd).
Could this cause problems (or inconsistency) that incorrect rates will be used?
I am very very thankful for all help I can get in this question!
Best Regards, Åsa

Hi
Here you need to concentrate on Direct or indirect quotation
If you are using EUR to SEK (LC) - use direct quotation as 8.8307 1:1 relation
If you are using SEK to EUR - use indirect quotaion as 0.1132 1:1 relation
Pls let me know if you required further help

Different Exchange Rate Type for Vendors and Customers Invoices

Dear Friends,
We have configured different exchange rate types for Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable thru T Code OB07. What are the additional Config steps required to ensure that the respective buying and selling rates will apply to Accounts Payables and Receivables. We do not want to stipulate the exchange rate types in Document Types as this special exchange rates are applicable only for one of the Company Codes.
Would appreciate your help in this regard.
Regards,

Hi,
Then you can use a different document type for those company codes and can default the exchange rate type there.
OR,
The alternative wya is to use the substitution in OBBH/ GGB1 for those company codes with exit programming.

Utilizing different exchange rate type for same currency combination

Hello Gurus,
I wanted to get your opinion/experience in handling the following scenario.
We have company codes in different countries operating using different local currencies. There is alternate exchange rate type EURX defined for Exchange rate type M for many currency combinations due to business requirements. One country with local currency EUR is utilizing EURX SEK - EUR exchange rate combination.
Other country with local currency HUF is making use of exchange rate type MNB as an alternate exchange rate. In one of its transaction, where VAT is being calculated on its foreign transaction, HUF company is trying to seek rate of MNB SEK- EUR where country currency is SEK and document currency is EUR.
But since on the 'translation ratios for currency translation' table EURX being the alternate currency for that particular combination, even when we set MNB SEK EUR exchange rate, the system is obviously picks up EURX rate.
Has anyone come across similar scenario where different countries trying to get different exchange rate types for the same combination of currency? and If so, how would that be possibly handled through config or using something custom?
Thanks all for your replies in advance.
Regards,
Sagar K.

Hi Sagar,
In tcode OBBS, if Alt.exchange rate is used for any currency pair, then that rate is used ( EURX in this case).
All countries in EMU region uses EURX ( which is mostly fixed after introduction of EUR).
If the company is in different countries in Europe, then mostly EUR is used as Alt. exchange rate. which uses EUR as reference currency.
Ther is no country specific settings in std. sap for a currency pair.
Cheers,

Different exchange rate type for budgetting internal orders

Hi,
we would like to use a different exchange rate types when budgetting on internal orders depending on the order type.
In our current set-up the internal order types are linked to a budget profile, in this budget profile we have specified the exchange rate type to use.
Unfortunately this doesn't work (I guess this is only used to translate the total budget)
We do availability control in company code currency and on a yearly base, but each time we approve some budget we want to translate this at the most recent (monthly) exchange rate.
This works if we change the exchange rate type P each month so that it contains the most recent exchange rate on the first of januari.
Unfortunately this P-rate is also used for other things (other budget on other order types and cost center planning) here we want to be able to keep the same exchange rate throughout the whole year.
If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanx in advance
Sven

Apply different exchange rate types in sales order and invoice

Dear Experts,
How to configure different exchagnes in sales order and invoice?
For example, use average exchange rate in sales order but current exchange rate in invoice.
Thanks!
Regards,
Wang Hui

Hi all,
I also need to apply different exchange rate between sales order and Invoice.
E.g:
condition type currency (komv-waers) sales document currency (komk-waerk) company currency (t001-waers)
In my example, each of above currencies can be different:
komv-waers = EUR
komk-waerk = USD
t001-waers = GBP
I tried through VTFL transaction but it is not working in all situations cause VTFL allows me to manage situations where
komk-waerk NE T001-waers
But I need to convert condition types where
komk-waerk EQ T001-waers but
komv-waers NE komk-waerk
Can I manage this situation through SAP standard and/or VTFL transaction?
Is there any other solution?
I really hope you can help me
Thanks a lot

Parallel currencies - Same currency but 2 different exchange rate type -

Hi Expert,
I need your knowledge - I want to create a romanian company with 2 currencies - the first one will be RON company currency with the standard exchange rate type used for all others company of the group (maintained monthly from German National Bank exch.rate)
The second one will be also RON, currency of the trading partner, but with a specific exchange rate type (maintained Daily from the Romania National Bank)
I would like to work in this way to satisfy the group, which need to work with a monthly exchange rate for X reasons, and our Romanian company for which the daily exchange rate is mandatory.
If you have some experience on it, please give a feedback, not in detail (certainly to much work) but at least if I can go on this way or not. if you know a black point in some transaction (I think to the fixed assets, or stock valuation ....) and if you have an advice to have the correct value in RFBILA00 for example.
Thanks a lot for your help

POSTING WITH A DOCUMENT TYPE WITH DIFFERENT EXCHANGE RATE TYPES

Hi there,
We have different company codes in the same client. These companies are situated in various countries.
I like to use the same document type with several exchange types M and X(specific for countries). Posting in MM and SD are ok by defining a exchange rate to master records of customers and vendors. Unfortunately I could not find a way to post documents from FI using the same document type.
Is it possible and how?
Thank you,
melike

Hi,
In accounting editing options (Transaction code FB00) - in the tab Document entry - there is an option to select the check box Exchange Rate from first line item. If this is selected, the exchange rate entered manually in the first line item will be copied in the header automatically. This could be one of the options you can consider.
However, the hitch is it involves manual entry which could result in human errors.
Thanks
Murali.

Exchange Rate Type default different from M for a company code

Dear SAP guru,
Would you shed some light on this?
How would we be able to default/assign a different exchange rate type from M at a company code level?
I have a company code - finance company - that every foreign currenty transaction needs to be translated using different exchange rate type (i.e. daily hedge rate) than other operating companies.
The OB22 screen makes it appear as M rate is specificied as 1st currency in company code, but grayed out and not able to change.
Please help me with your expertise on this.
Kind regards

Hi,
ExRateType is hardcoded in
Main Program     SAPL0F03
Source code of   L0F03I01
*------- Daten zur ersten Hauswährung -
rfcu4-curtp = '10'.
rfcu4-bwer1 = '0'.                                        "AT 23039
rfcu4-kurst = 'M'.               <<<<<
rfcu4-cursr = '1'.
rfcu4-curdt = '3'.
The reason why the assignment of exchange rate type M to the first company code currency is a historical reason. A lot of coding within the SAP system is directly developed under the prerequisite that the exchange rate type for the first company code currency is M.
As you described you want to setup several company codes in one client that all have the same first company code currency but should use different exchange rates. To solve that issue there are 2 ways available:
The first way is that you use the functionality to assign an exchange rate type to a document type. That would mean a lot of work because in that case you would have to define all document types seperatly for
every company code.
The second possible solution is that you use different names for the fist company code currency.
That means for example that you name the first company code currency in company code 0001 USD and in company code 0002 US1. So you can use different exchange rates for the same currency.because in that examle USD and US1 are only different names for the same currency. Using this approach you can have different exchange rates for different companies with the same company code currency by setting only different names even though the exchange rate type M is fix asigend to the first company code currency.

Exchange Rate Type not working during plan assessment in T Code KSUB

Hello Experts
We had different exchange rate types created for different plan versions. We had Exchange Rate Type Z1 for Plan Version 01.
We had maintained the same in Planning settings for the fiscal year 2011.
We had created a new plan assessment cycle with version 1.
Now when we execute assessment cycle it is not using the exchange rate from 01/01/2011. Instead it is selecting the rate from 01/01/2010.
Is there something wrong when we copied fiscal year 2011 from 2010 for version 01.
Request your inputs and help on this.
Thanks
Satya Alapati

Hi Ajay
Thanks for the information.
We had not maintained the value date for any of our versions since we keep changing the rates for every period and wish to have the system pick the latest rate for the period.
It has been the case in earlier years also.
Thanks
Satya

Translation date for exchange rate type 'M'

Hello friends,
How do I change the translation date for an exchange rate type, for a particular company code?
My client wants the translation date for the exchange rate type 'M' to be document date instead of posting date. It is required as per Romanian Law of land.
Regards,
Mike

Mike,
I assumed your question is for an additional local currency for a company code (this can be changed in OB22). For the first local currency, the translation date type in OB22 is always set to 3 (Translation Date) and cannot be changed (hence, greyed out). Following that, in accounting entry transactions (for example FB01), you will see a field (Translation Date) where you can specify a date for which you want the system to fetch exch. rate from the exch. rate table. In your situation, you will have to enter 'document date' there.
PS: The reply above by Ravi applies only to tax items' translation, not for all items. He is basically talking about the indicator that you see in OBY6.

New exchange rate type

1. Our client would like to maintain a new exchange rate type for the company code W100. Presently there are some 20 company codes are useing EURX exchange rate type including the company code W100.Is it possible to maintain new exchange rate type only for the company code W100 and what are all the procedure has to be followed to maintain the new exchange rate type?
Thanks and Regards,
Vimal

Hi Vimal,
Ex-rate types are not limited to company codes. But a new created Ex-rate type XXZZ (OB07) even with all currency translation ratios and maintained Ex-rates (OB08 or TCURMNT) does not effect anything unless it is used (e.g. for foreign currency valuation,...). Steps for creating a new Ex-rate see in General settings / currencies in the Customizing.

AP- Why exchange rate type between Post invoice and Post payment is differe

AP- Why exchange rate type between Post invoice and Post payment is different ?
Hello,
I have question
when post AP invoice , document type KR
document date = 11.12.2009
posting date = 31.12.2009
entry date = 05.01.2010
this document using exchange rate type B (standard translation at bank selling rate) on 31.12.2009 (use posting date )
but when post payment for above document,document type ZP
document date = 25.06.2010
posting date = 25.06.2010
entry date = 24.06.2010
this document using exchange rate type M (standard translation at average rate) on 23.06.2010
please answer
why do post invoice and post payment use different exchange rate type?
and why at payment donot use posting date for get exchange rate ?

Nanas,
Sorry if im not being clear...
My point is: the difference rates customization for payments is done at FBZP.
At Paying Company Codes, you have 4 flags for exchange rates differentes.
At Control Data look:
*Do not Post any Exchange Rate Differences:
If the indicator is not set, the difference between the exchange rate at the time of posting and the exchange rate at the time of payment is determined for items which are posted in foreign currency. The payment program uses the translation rate in the currency table in the system for this purpose.
*No Exchange Rate Differences for Partial Payments:
Has the effect that the payment program for partial payments (requests for payment using transaction F-59) does not post exchange rate differences.
*Processing of Bill of Exchange Payments:
*Separate Payment for each Payment Reference

In an accounting entry vat line should post with different exchange rate how to do that.

In specific jurisdictions invoices in foreign currency should also show
exchange rate and translated VAT amount in local currency. The required
exchange rate may change by country, although often the central bank
rate is required to post the VAT amount. and BASE AMT to be posted in 'M'(MOR) rate
So base amount and vat amount will be converted with 2 different
exchange rate types respectively.
below accounting entry should generate.
                                            GBP        EUR
DR CUst                              100          111.11          0.9 MOR
Cr   Revenue                          90          100               0.9 MOR
Cr   VAT                                10          12.50            0.8 ECB
Dr   Exchange rate diff                          1.39
how should we proceed to develop the solution for this.
