Exchange Rate Difference Accounts are Incomplete

There's a situation where the user is trying to clear the transaction using F-04 for clearing outgoing checks account in CAD. however the system gives a message "Ex rate diff. accts are incomplete for account 1100000 currency CAD".
This situation exists only in Production and not in QA or DEV. However, there is no configuration change between PRD & QA,
There is account configured for ExchagenRate difference realized in OBA1 for the reconciliation account 2100000, same as in QA and DEV. not able to figure out where is the issue.

Hello
As per the message you need to maintain the exchange rate differences for th account 1100000.
if there is no exchange rate difference then system wont give that error message, in quality and development exchange rates are not maintained daily thatu2019s the reason it wont give the error message
please maintain the exchange rate accounts for the account either with currency CAD or without any currency will resolve the issue
Thanks

F-28 Exchange Rate Difference Account with a zero posting

Hi SAP Gurus,
When I try to post an incoming payment, even though there are no exchange rate differences, the system post to exchange rate difference account. How to configure the system to stop displaying the exchange rate difference account when the difference is zero.
Regards,
Siva

Dear Siva,
I dont think that the system will post to exchange rate difference account if there is no difference. Probably you are seeing the doucment in the foreign currency. Try to simulate the entry and on the simulated screen, click on the "Display currency" tab on the top of the entry. That will show the simulated entry in the local currency. In the local currency, there may be some difference.
Check it and if useful, assign points.

Exchange Rate difference account-

Hi All,
Please help me to find a solution for the scenario below.
Business process is third party PO scenario where the vendor currency(USD) is different from ccode currency.
Material is valuated at 30 EUR.
PO is made with the vendor at Rs.51.60 USD.(Exchange rate is not fixed at header level in PO)
GR is made at 51.60 USD
While doing IR,the exchange rate has changed from 1.290 to 1.395.
What configuration should be done for the system to post to Exchange rate difference account(transaction key KDM)..
(As of now the difference in price is posted to the consumption account,Which was already hit during GR).
Regards,
Deepak.

HI DEEPAK,
If Price control maintained in Material master is " V " then, at MIRO,
1. exchange rate diff. will be posted to stock account if available stock qty is >= invoice quantity
2. exchange rate diff. will be posted to exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is 0
3. exchange rate diff. will be posted propotionately to stock account and exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is < invoice quantity
If Price control maintained in Material master is " S " then, at MIRO,
1. exchange rate diff. will be posted exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) i.e. irrespective of stock availability.
pls, check and revert back

Hi Experts,
We have some new requirement when we are doing billing in vf01. We are maintaining 2 exchange rate type in one FI document(For customer account we are maintaining M rate and for revenue accounts we are maintaining spot rate when we are converting into Group currency in FI doc). To maintain 2 exchange rates in FI doc we wrote some ABAP code.. but the FI is not being generated. we are getting below error..
FI interface: Small difference * USD 30 cannot be distributed
Message no. F5735
Diagnosis
A small discrepancy of * occurred in currency USD for currency type 30 in the FI interface due to a rounding error.
Because the discrepancy is caused by a system error, it cannot be corrected.
Procedure
Notify the SAP Hotline.
Could any one give the any suggestion to go forward...thanks in advance..

Automatic posting accounts for exchange rate difference.

Guys,
My clients wants to write a check in GBP pound sterling, and for that I set up house bank for GBP and did all the other configuration steps in FBZP.We successfully printed out the check thru F110.Now when we try to mark the check as "encashed" thru FCHR,The log says 1 check selected and marked as encashed but no posting docunments get generated as system shows an errored out session,I looked into SM35,the job log says" exchange rate difference accounts are incomplete for acount 161511 currency GBP".System takes me to OB09 which is account determination for Ol Exch.rate differences.Should I update a/c 161511 here? Please note account 161511 is not a foreign currrency account.Its main cash bank account(US$ account) which I set up in House bank FI12.So in OB09 I dont see that account 161511.Wht should I do ?System also takes me to OBA1-maintain FI configuration Automatic posting. DO I need to do something in here too ? Please advice.Thanks

Ex rate difference account

Hi Experts,
We are trying to clear open items through Tcode F-03. At the time of saving, the system is throwing error as Ex. rate difference accounts are incomplete for account xxxxx currency XXX.
But in all the transaction local currency and accounting currency are the same.
What could be the reason for this. I have checked OB09 exchange rate difference account has not maintained for the referred account. Since both accounting currency and local currency are same, why system is throwing error. Is there any configuration settings needs to be checked.
Thanks in advance
Narayanan

hi
You can also check the currency setting of company code in ledger (leading and non-leading), maybe different currency types are used there.
The path you can refer to IMG: Financial Accounting (New)->Financial Accounting Global Settings (New)->Ledgers->Ledger->Define Currencies of Leading Ledger
another suggestion is that you can maintain the exchange rate diff account and do the test posting to see whehter system post any document/line item relevant to exchange rate diff.
Good Luck
Best Regards, Lawrence

Dear SAP Gurrus,
I am facing a problem while making payment against invoice, receiving payment against invoice, clearing advance payment and advance receipts through T-code F-53, F-28, F-44 and F-32. System is allowing me to select the invoices against which I want to do the clearing but when I go for simulation I am getting the following error -
' Exchange rate diff. accts are not defined for account 16145110currency INR'.
When I click on the error message the performance assistant gives methe following details:
Exchange rate diff.accts are not defined for account 16145110 currency INR
Message no. F5062
Diagnosis
The accounts for posting the exchange rate differences could not be determined. For the specified G/L account and the specified currency key, no corresponding exchange rate difference accounts were determined.
System Response
The system cannot generate the exchange rate difference posting.

As a result I am not able to clear open items. Please give me some feasible solution so that I can clear the open items.
Thanks in advance

Please check whether you have created any Group / Parrallel curencies etc in co.code level.

Exchange Rate has been defined both the end. Like INR = USD and USD = INR.
Here you are not yet defined GL account for Exchange Rate Difference account (Gain or Loss).
T.Code OB09 Define G/L , Currency and Currency Type.
Before that you would have the GL account please create in FS00.
Hope it will help you.

For Transaction type KDF, you double click to your GL account, and maintain the Valuation loss/gain, balance sheet adjustment in there.

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 differences whne clearing documents in local currency

Hello,
While clearing customer documents in local currency , the system calculates exchange rate differences in the clearing document. Even if the amount in local currency is 0, the amount in second local currency will have a value. The same is happening also when we clear GR/IR account. In the case of customer clearing, becuse for the exachange rate differences account are maintaied default values in OKB9, the system cannot split, since there are 2 different account assignments when tolerances are also involved.
I think that, if the exchange rate differences account wont be popluated while clearing, i will be able to post clearing with tolerance amounts.
Any idea about how to make the exchange rate differences not to be caulculated for clearing in local currency?
Thank you,
S.

Hi,
Go to OBY6 and choose your company code.
For your company code, the check box No forex rate diff. when clearing in LC should have been checked in case if you dont want to calculate the exch rate diff when clearing open items in LC.
This will solve your issue.
Thanks,
Srinu

Exchange Rate Difference in PO with cost center assignment

Hi All,
In case of exchange rate difference in a PO with a cost center assignment the system Do not post the difference in the exchange rate difference account (maintained under transaction type - KDM - in T-code OBYC). However if the PO is a normal material PO it posts the exchange rate difference to the exchange rate difference account.
I want the exchange rate difference to be posted to the exchange rate difference accout for PO's with cost center assigned as well.
I have searched for SAP notes and found that note # 980402 & 1102481 provides a solution for this issue - but it seems both the notes are valid for 4.6 and 6 release only. We are on ECC 5.0
I have also checked note # 1136145 for this and implemented in the system successfully without any luck.
Can some one please help me with a solution for this issue.
Thanks and regards,
Ankur

Even I have implemented this note in our 4.6C system for account assigned POs, but no luck. Please let me know if are successful.
Thanks

Avoid posting of realized exchange rate differences in 2nd local currency

Dear SAP fans,
The situation here in our company is that a company code is set up with NZD as 1st and EUR as 2nd local currency (currency type 30 "Group currency" for EC-CS consolidation).
Therefore, all postings (and balances) are also translated and saved in EUR (with the current exchange rate).
We now have an open item managed G/L account for prepaid expenses, which is used to collect postings which are then cleared later. It's however no payable/receivable account for vendors/customers. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to post realized exchange rate differences when clearing this account. This is however what SAP wants to do when we try to clear it.
For example, if I post today 100 NZD and two months later again 100 NZD to this account. If the NZD vs. EUR exchange rate changed in the meantime, then SAP won't let me clear this account without posting realized exchange rate differences, which makes however no sense.
Does anyone of you meet this problem before? Could you please give me a hint?
I thought about setting the "Only balances in local currency" indicator in the G/L account master but this helps only for differences between local and document currency (and not for differences in 1st and 2nd local currency).
Any help is highly appreciated!
Thanks and best regards,
Peter

Dear Padma,
Thanks for your answer. The customizing activities you mentioned are already set up in the system. This is not our problem.
The problem is however, that we don't want SAP to post automatically realized exchange rate differences between 1st and 2nd local currency as this doesn't make sense in this business case.
It's about an open item managed G/L account which is used to collect posting which are later cleared. It's not a payable/receivable account for customers/vendors where the posting of realized exchange rate differences makes sense.
We've thought about several solution which unfortunately all didn't help us:
- Don't setup realized exchange rate differences accounts or set them up only for group currency (in OB09)
- Set indicator "Only balances in local currency" in G/L master data
Best regards,
Peter

How to distribute exchange rate difference to material with moving average price?

Hi community,
Exchange rate differences are not distributed into the items based on the shipment (per article/material). Is there a workaround available based on the GR/IR exchange rate difference and the material that was purchased?
Thank you and best regards,
Barbara Dörr

Hi Lokesh,
thanks a lot for the quick answer, but I
had read this documentation and only found this documentation of exchange rate
difference posting:
GR/IR clearing uses the exchange rate of
the goods receipt. The GR/IR clearing run completely clears Unbilled Payables
and Purchases in Transit. The run calculates price differences of EUR 155 and exchange rate differences of EUR
135. The price differences are posted to the price difference account and the
exchange rate differences to the exchange rate difference account.
Therefore I guessed that the exchange
rate differences are NOT distributed to the material with moving average price.
Best Regards,
Barbara
