Exchange Rate Gain/Loss of Incoming Payment

We are using the SAP BO 2005 A. The system could not post the exchange rate gain/loss transactions correctly. Explain the problem faced in below.
The local currency is in Euro.
The BP currency is in USD.
The invoice is created in USD 1000 with,say, exchange rate 0.64.
The incoming payment is received in USD with, say, excgange rate 0.66.
If the incoming payment is received in USD 1000, then, the system will post the transaction with excgange rate gain in local currency correctly as below:
Dr. Cash 660
Cr A/R 640
Cr Exchange Gain 20
But if the incoming payment is first received partially, say USD 500. Then, the system will not calculate any exchange gain. The transaction will be like:
Dr. Cash 330
Cr. A/R 330
In the next(i.e. the final) USD500 incoming payment receipt, the system also will not post any exchange rate gain. The 2nd transaction will be still like:
Dr. Cash 330
Cr. A/R 330
Could this a bug in the 2005 A?
Could this bug be solved by any patch of 2005A or in 2007A?
Is there any work around solution for this?
Thank you all in advance.

Hi Jack,
enabling partial reconciliation is one of the major enhancements in version 2007 A & B. It works in all localisations.
You will find a lot of info on the 2007 landing page here:
Channel Partner Portal -> Solutions -> SAP Business One -> Hot Topics -> 2007 Landing Page
On that landing page you will find:

All the best,

Exchange rate gain /loss is not posted in the contract

Hi Sap People,
Exchange rate gain /loss is not posted in the contract(cashflows). This is w.r.t SAP Banking Module.
The open items are posted with a certain exchange rate in the contract at the time of disburesment,while clearing thru FF68(incoming payment) with a new exchange rate the items
are cleared with the same exchange rate and the Exchange gain/loss is posted as zero.
Regards
Ravi

Hi,
Check the exchange rate type for the disbursement. It is M for FF68. Check in configuration the exchange rate type. Also check the exchange rates maintained in OB08 for this exchange rate type and confirm if there is any difference.
Is it Loans module?

Exchange rate gain/loss during F-28

Hi
we have following secnario:-
1. company code A with local currency AED and group currency USD
2. company code B with local currency USD and group currency USD
now invoice posted in both comapnies and accordingly payment received as follows:-
1. Company code A (local currency is AEd) - invoice posted in local currency but payment received in USD
2. comapny code B (local currency is USD) - invoice posted in local currency but payment received in AED
system behaviour:-
1. comapny code A for which local currency is AED but payment received in USD - system post exchange rate gain/ loss
2. company code B for which local currency is USD but payment received in AED - system doesn't post exchang
I am not able to understand this behaviour as system configuration is same (as COA is same for both company) for both company and accordingly rate is maintained in OB08.
please share your viewpoint on this.
Regards
DD

Hi Kiron
Thanks for response and link.
But the information given in the link is not my case. in my case system dertermine the correct GL but the problem is its happening in one company code but not in other.
for both company code setting is same for OBY6, OBXL and tolerence limit.
Please revert

Settings for exchange rate gain/loss

In our config, for exchange rate gain /loss between ex rate in bill of lading and ex rate of actual payment , system passes two entries at the time of clearing advance and invoice in f-44. One entry is for gain and other for loss , net effect of the entries is either gain or loss . We wish to change the settings so that syatem shall pass only one entry be it gain or loss. How to achieve this??

Dear,
in my opinion the issue You're facing is due to the split activation for exchange rate.
Usually due to different account assignment in open item, the exchange
rate difference items are split. Check the table V_FAGL_SPLIT_FL2.
I hope this helps.

Additional line item for Exchange rate gain / loss

HI,
We ahve three currency as Main currency (INR), group currency (INR) and Hard currency (USD).
When we pay to vendor or received from customer, system generate additional line item for Exchange rate gain / loss with Rs. Zero . But transaction is in INR. But it has value in USD as USD 0.01.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Harshal

Hi,
I got your point.
Its a standard behaviour as part of parerral valuation with addtional local currency.
Please make sure that the below are set in your system.
1) in OB22, for your company code, for the HARD CURRENCY--The source curr must be Translation taking first local currency as a basis
2) For every foriegn currency you use, you maintain the exch rates in OB08 with Foriegn Currency 2 Local Currency combination always. And at the same time make sure that there is no opposite combination rates for the same.
(Like 1 USD = 50 INR...1 GBP = 80 INR....1 EUR = 60 INR only)
These may avoid most of the cases where 0.00 LC value lines during clearing.

Exchange rate gains/loss and cash discounts vs document splitting

Dear all,
I am facing the following problem. My customer wants to do the following:
-Realized and unrealized exchange rate differences regarding accounts receivable has to be booked on the same profit center that the invoices was book on when they were created.
-Realized and unrealized exchange rate differences regarding accounts payable has to be booked on the same profit center that the GR/IR account (offseting entry for accounts payable when receiving material vendor invoice)
-Cash dicounts granted must be booked on the same profit center that the GR/IR-account (when registering the invoice) when doing the payment of vendor invoices in f110.
Could this be received through document splitting? Anyone that knows what settings I have to do?
Best Regards, Åsa

Hi
As for your query...When realized loss/gain in that double click on line item you can update profit center.
Same for cash discount granted.
if you ask for document splitting assign Extended document spliting scenario.
it only work for profit center spliting.
clear

Exchange Rate Gain Loss Error

Dear Experts,
I am stuck in a very serious problem
In import purchase Order for raw material we have configured a condition for import duty.
Now in current scenario the import duty has been invoiced before goods receipt there is a minor difference in amount invoiced and amount entered in purchase order.When the receipt is posted for this purchase order an abnormally high amount is posted into exchange rate difference account which is charged to material.
This makes the moving price of material very high.
The currency for purchase order is Dollars. We have maintained a conversion in FI table and purchase order as well.
Please suggest as to what is causing this abnormally high amount to be posted in exchange rate difference account.
Regards,
Sohaib

It is a condition defined in Purchasing all the as Import Duty and calculation type is Fixed Amount.
This condition is used in import purchase order (PO currency USD). The invoice for this condition is posted in local currency which is PKR.
When Goods Receipt (105) is posted for this purchase order system doesnot convert the amount invoiced into equivalent PKR according to exchage rate specified in OB08. All amount in PKR is taken into USD with exchange rate equivalent to 1 and gain loss from this conversion is charged to material. e.g 314079 PKR is posted as 314079 USD and Gain/Loss which amounts to 27 million is charged to material. This makes MAP of material equivalent to 20000 PKR rather than 4000 PKR.

Exchange rate gain or loss in Payment proposal

Hi,
Is there a way where we can show the amount of exchange rate gain or loss realized on the detailed screen of the payment proposal..
Thanks,

Not possible in F110.
You can check unrealized differences if you want to in FAGL_FC_VAL
Realized arises only at the time of documents clearing.

Foreign currenvy gain/loss when partial payments are done at F-53

Dear Experts,
   Hello.
   User requests to create foreign currency gain/loss line items when execuitng partial payments at transaction F-53.
   I have no idea about the requests.
Can someone tell me how to do it?
Satoshi Matsumoto

Hi,
Check the postings when instead of using "Partial Payment", the "Residual Items". In this case the foreign Exchange Rate differences arre getting calculated.
The reason being that in Partial Payment the original Item is not cleared and both the original item and partial payment is open, and hence no actual realized gain/ loss in technically. The exchange rate difference will get calculated in these lines, when doing the month end revaluation.
However in "Residual Item" option, the original item gets cleared and the exchange rate difference becomes realized. And the new item for the remaining balance gets created at new exchange rate.
Hope this clarifies.

Gaurav

Exchange Rate Difference generated when process payment w/ withholding tax

I post a foreign currency vendor invoice w/ withholding tax posting
that is related to the expense transaction. We have assigned a
withholding tax type '01' for invoice posting (that means the
withholding tax calculated during invoice posting). And this
withholding tax amount is calculated using special exchange rate
announced by Bank of Thailand (BOT). And this posting is fine. e.g. Dr
Expense Cr Vendor Cr Withholding tax.. The withholding tax amount is
calculated based on BOT rate, Expense posting is based on M rate and
the AP posting is equal to Expense Posting minus withholding tax
posting..
Assume BOT Rate is 3:1 and M rate is 2:1
FC LC
Dr Expense 100 200
Cr Vendor 85 155
Cr WH Tax 15 45
When I process outgoing payment with foreign currency for this invoice,
system always take M rate (or I use special document type to force the
system use BOT rate), but either these two results will make the
posting imbalance in Local currency, then make posting to exchange
gain/loss..
How can this problem solved? Any configuration control? Or what we only
can do is to input the LC amount during payment posting..
Please advice.
Angus

Please check table V_T7XSSPERSUBTYP, where in the subtypes for specific countries / cities need to be maintained for different infotypes. In this case check for IT0210.

Exchange rate loss by cctr/pctr

is it to separate unrealized gain/loss by cost center? is it to separate realized gain/loss by cost center? thanks

Do not create exchange rate gain / loss account as cost element. If you create cost element ,you must have assign cost center determination via OKB9 settings with respect to profit center's.

Exchange Rate Diff in F110 & EBS

Hi
Our client processes foreign vendor payments in F110 and uses exchange rate maintained in Exchange Rate table. This payment creates an open item Bank Clearing Account.
Subsequently when EBS is received, bank debits account with spot exchange rate which is different from the rate used in F110 processing.
How is the difference between amounts in EBS and Clearing Account handled to post to Exchange Rate Gain /Loss account so that EBS item is cleared automatically?
Your replies are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Satya

Hi Sridhar
I had done the configuration already and had an issue with the methodology.
Bank sends EBS in USD whereas the items to be cleared are in different currencies.
If I clear the item in the respective currency, system triggers to the ER Diff GL maintained in T Code OB09.
But if I try to clear the item in USD, it gives me a message that the difference is too large for clearing.
Is there any way we can let the system do it automatically while processing EBS in USD?
Thanks
Satya

F-53 exchange rate error.

Dear Experts,
While doing F-53 foreign vendor, the balance of the open item is showing lessthan the fbl1n amount. for example there is an open item which is posted in the system on 10.09.2010 wtih 1500 euros and the amount in local currency is say 75000?-. this is showing in FBL1n which is correct as per vendor invoice.
When we making a payment through F-53 on 10.10.2010 for the same vendor, its showing the amount an open item is 73500/-. when i selet the item its showing the difference in not assigned field. If i put the same value in Difference postings field its debbiting the vendor which is not correct. this should go to exchange rate gain/loss account.
Why it is not going to exchange rate gain/loss account automatically.
regards,
Gopi.P

Hi,
   Make the payment posting in Euros and the exchange differences will be automatically posted.
   If you insist on posting in local currency, you will have to manually add a posting line for the exchange difference.
    (73500 = Euro 1500 @ Rate on 10.10.)
   Kind regards

Exchage rate should not come during payment to the vendors

Hi Sap Experts,
My client have some different requirement,
At the time of MIRO system is picking the Exchange rate from OB08 table and converting to company code currency. When will make the payment to vendor, through company code currency system is picking exchange rate from OB08 table and it is showing exchange rate Gain/loss Account, which our client does not required.
At the time of payment to above vendor, system should picking only liability created value and should not show any exchange rate difference.
Thanks in advance
kareem

Hi,
If exchange rate is same at the time of invoice and payment then there will be no issue.
But when there is difference you have to show the Gain and loss in your account.
Otherwise how will you entry match.
Eg invoice 100 USD with exchange rate is 50 INR
When you are paying 100 USD exchange rate is 51 INR
Then entry will come as
Vendor A/c 5000 Dr
Loss Exhange rate 100 Dr
To Bank A/c 5100 Cr
If you don't show the loss how will you match the entry.
As you have to show what you have paid through bank which is not changeable

Cash Management gain/loss calcs with autooffsets turned on

Please forward any experiences with workarounds/processes for creating exchange gain/loss journal entries for foreign currency payments. Client needs Auto Offsets on, therefore, Cash Management can not create the journal entries.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Normally exchange rate gain & loss is handled within AP when you make the payment (As long as you book the payment in the system in its proper foreign payment currency).
However, with Cash Management what you might see is a bank charge in addition to the foreign payment on one statement line.
So a bank statement line might show: GBP 125
This might represent a foreign payment in AP PLUS a charge made by your bank for processing the foreign payment.
If you are also using Oracle Receivables you can set up a 'Receivables Activity' and default it to a particular GL account (e.g. a particular gain/loss account or bank charges account). Then in Cash Management you can use this Receivables Activity to book a transaction for the bank charge.
The high-level process would be as follows:
1. Manually reconcile the AP Foreign Payment to the statement line
2. (While on the same statement line) click the 'Create' button. From here you can create/book a miscellaneous transaction (using any pre-defined Receivables Activity)
The point to mention is that this is obviously not automatic. But I hope it helps.
Tony
