My client is facing one issue while receiving one payment in foreign currency. User is posting payment through F-28. Document currency is GBP and Local currency is EUR.   Excharge rate maintained in OB08 for GBP to EUR is 1.22137.
It is working fine for first five cases as showing below but for for sixth case system is showing wrong amount 4,968.30-
instead of 7646.58 in the document and the difference 2,678.28- is posting in Real.exchange gain local account in separate line.

Does anybody knows why system is behaving like this. Many thanks in advance for your kind help.
Regards,

Are these the open items in one invoice or open items in different invoices? If they are in different invoices, you can check whether some invoices are not using currency GBP but other foreign currencies?
I met some case that if the invoice was posted in a different foreign currecy and in different payment period. The system will translate among 2 foreign currencies and local currency.
Good luck.

Exchange Rate Differences for Alternative Currency

F110 payment run for invoices posted in foreign currency creates automatic postings to exchange rate difference (realized gain or loss) accounts linked to KDW.
What we are trying to do is to use another set of GL accounts to be posted automatically aside from what are defaulted in the KDW in OBA1.
Questions:
- Is F110 fixed to get KDW transaction to get which GL accounts will be posted to?
- Can we define another transaction with different set of GL accounts to be posted to? If so, how and where do we configure this so that F110 will not be defaulted to get KDW.
Thanks,
Ommar

SGD Exchange Rate Difference JE appears in Customer Aging Report

Dear Experts,
SAP Version: 8.81
Local Currency: SGD
We perform Exchange Rate Difference for a USD BP to calculate the unrealized gain/loss during month-end, JE created successfully.
Next, we go to Customer Aging Report and select this USD BP.
When i choose to view the Aging Report in Local Currency, the USD Invoice will appear in SGD + Exchange Rate Difference JE in SGD, the total balance can appear in SGD with no problem.
When i choose to view the Aging Report in BP Currency, the USD Invoice will appear in USD + Exchange Rate Difference JE in SGD, i can't see the total balance as it is appeared as xxxxx.
Above is the behaviour in 881.
Last time in SAP 2005, when i choose to view the Aging Report in BP Currency, the Exchange Rate Difference JE in SGD will not appear, therefore i can see the total balance in USD.
What is your opinion about the behavior in 881? Will you consider it as design or issue?
Thanks.

Dear all,
This problem is no longer there when upgrade to 881 Patch 08.

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.
B. Regards,
Halaswamy

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.

Exchange rate difference posted to Group currency only during MIRO

Hi SAP Gurus,
We're activating parallel currency in ML and USD is the group currency. GR/IR clearing acct is managed in local currency only.
OB22
Crcy Type 30    Group currency                               Currency   USD
Valuation        Legal Valuation
ER Type    M     Standard translation at average rate
Srce curr. 1     Translation taking transaction currency as a basis
TrsDte typ 3     Translation date
Please find below scenario:
Co code currency: ZAR

Entry: debit Expense - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
          credit GR/IR acct -   4,078.19 ZAR/ 452.64 USD
Upon IR:

          credit Vendor acct - 4,078.19 ZAR/ 460.02 USD
automatic additional debit Expense - 0.00 ZAR/ 7.38 USD
Here are my questions:
1.) Where would I check the setting for the GL account used in the automatic line entry posted in group currency during IR? (3rd line item above)
2.) Can this be changed? Say instead of the original acct assignment, the management want to change it to FX gain/loss account
3.) How?
I have checked several notes (331910,etc) but I can't seem to find the answers to my questions.
Appreciate your help. Thanks!
Regards
Dru

Just an update to this issue- I just found out that the system is pointing to KBS when posting the
exchange rate difference in group currency upon IR, hence, PO account
assignment is adopted. I'd like to rephrase my question- is there any
way we can change SAP behaviour such that it will point to other
transaction key (e.g. KDG) other than KDM? Bottomline is we want it
charged to other GL account not the one in the PO.
Thanks so much for your assistance.

Dru

Exchange Rate Difference Posting

Dear Gurus,
I am facing atypical scenario in Production and development Clients.While clearing open items for a BanlK GL (USD Currency) in production there is no exchange differences being calculated by the syste.There is difference in Exchange rates between the original document and the clearing document.
But for the same GL in Development I am getting Posting to Account maintained in KDB Key.
I would like to know what can lead to difference in scenario that in one case system is calculating difference and posting and in the other case no.
Please help.
Regards
Raju

Dear All,
Let me elaborate the scenarion in more deatil:
We post Foreign Currency Invoice LIV--MIRO say rate is 41 USD/INR
For payment F110 No Exg rate differences is selected in FBZP--So no Exchange Rate Difference is posted for payment.
Now for clearing the bank Sub account Entry posted by APP user input LIV Exg rate in past and systen allowed to clear with no Exg rate Differ.This is OK.
Now when user try to clear same account with same entry system is issue msg like No Exg Rate diss account maned.I tried to clear th GL document with both LIV and APP exchage rate its strange that is each case system expects Exchange rate diff account.
I maintained in FBKP KDB in development client but then Exg Rate diff is getting posted which is not the requirement.
Can any body please help.
Regards
Raju

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 Difference Error

Hi,
While posting payment through F-58, we are getting below error :
Ex.rate diff.accts are incomplete for account 0010500400 currency INR
Message no. F5063
Diagnosis
The accounts for posting exchange rate differences could not be determined. For the specified G/L account and the specified currency key, the accounts are only specified incompletely. Either the accounts for the implemented exchange rate difference, the accounts for the valuation differences or the balance sheet adjustment account are missing.
System Response
The system cannot generate the exchange rate difference posting.
Procedure
By pressing ENTER, you achieve that the document is reset to a status without automatic posting. In another window, you can complete default settings for exchange rate differences and post the document afterwards.
Proceed
However, all the necessary settings are made in KDF & KDB. Here we are processing payment for local vendor & the PO, GR, IR is done in INR then at the time of processing payment its giving above mentioned error. We are unable to understand that why system is asking for exchange rate difference account. Please suggest as the issue is urgent.
Regards,
Varsha

Hi Varsha,
As the message mentioned in detail, please check your configuration in tcode OBA1 again.
For Transaction type KDF, you double click to your GL account, and maintain the Valuation loss/gain, balance sheet adjustment in there.
For your ref:
You can read more information about this error in SAP note 12962 - Clearing Foreign Currency Items

Exchange Rate difference in Balance Sheet-Revaluation in Foreign Currency

Hi
I wanted more clarification on the Exchange rate difference the system calculates when we generate a balance sheet and revalue at a fixed rate. The system does not give a breakup of the echange rate calculated. How do we arrive at the exchange rate.
And after having the exchange rate entries posted in the system. Can the system the show these values in the Balance sheet after Revaluation
Regards
Farheen

Dear Gordan
Below mentioned is the balance sheet which is Revaluated in Euro(System Currency)at a Fixed Rate of 1.42.
at the end of this report we can see that the system has calculated Exchange rate difference as Euro -66483.03 .We want a break up of that amount which is calculated by the system

Exchange rate difference in transaction FB05

Dear experts,
I have a question regarding exchange rate difference in transaction FB05.
Prerequisite：We have implement accounts for the exchange rate difference in OB09.
I try to clear the customer in a billing transfer document in FB05, and I didn't do any manual change about amount during the process.
In the clear document there are three items:
Item PK Account Account short text   Tax Amount(USD)   Amt.in loc.cur.(EUR)
1   40   111111    cl.acc.b.statem.              33,592.00          24,672.79 EUR
2   40    222222   bank fees&charges          50.00                1,365.91 EUR
3   15    333333   customer A                     33,642.00-         26,038.70- EUR
And the correct exchange rate is: Currency USD / EUR
Exchange rate /1.36150
In this case the exchange rate of bank fees&charges is very strange.   And some value of local currency should go to the account for exchange rate gain/loss.
This kind of issue happens occasionally.

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
Neel

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

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)

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
