Exchange Rate difference for freight clearing

Question

Hi SAP Gurus,
I am facing a problem regarding exchange rate fluctuation. We have an import PO with USD (300 USD for Goods + 24 USD as freight).
The Problem has come at the time of IR
At the time of GR exchange rate was Rs.46.75, but at the time of IR the exchange rate is Rs.50.30
Incase of Goods (GR/IR Material) system attempt to post the difference amount (for foreign exchange fluctuation) to the account defined under Transaction u201CKDMu201D
But incase of freight (Freight Clearing) system attempt to post the difference amount (for foreign exchange fluctuation) to the account defined under Transaction u201CPRDu201D
I want to post the differences (for Goods & Freight) to the account defined under Transaction u201CKDMu201D
Kindly help me.
With Thanks & Regards,

Exchange rate differences for open items (KDM)
Exchange rate differences for open items occur when an invoice and a goods receipt for a purchase order are posted at different exchange rates and the material cannot be debited or credited due to standard price control or stock shortage.
Price differences (PRD)
Price differences occur for materials subject to standard price control for all movements and invoices valuated at a price other than the standard price. Examples: goods receipts for purchase orders when the purchase order price differs from the standard price; goods issues when an amount is entered manually; invoices when the price invoiced differs from both the purchase order price and standard price.
Price differences can also occur for invoices for materials with a moving average price when there is insufficient stock coverage for the quantity invoiced.
Depending on the settings for the posting logic for the processing key PRD, you can work with or without account grouping. If you work with account grouping, the following are used in the standard system:
None for goods and invoice receipts for purchase orders
PRF for goods receipts for production orders and
order settlement
PRA for goods issues and other movements
PRU for transfer postings (price differences for external amounts)
