Exchange rate maintainance-Suggestion please

Hi,
I have a following scenario regarding the exchange rates.
I have following currencies maintained in my system
Global Currency-USD
Group Currency-SAR
Company Code Currency-As per the country(for example AED for UAE)
I have maintained following exchange rates
AED-->SAR
AED-->USD and vice versa
We have maintained similarly for all the participant countries currencies with SAR & USD
We have also maintained all the other currencies,(like vendor currencies) with the respective company code currencies currencies .
For example if a vendor currency is JPY and I am making payment in country UAE with it's currency as AED then we have maintained JPY--> AED & vice versa.
However, system asks us to maintained rates for
JPY-->USD
JPY-->SAR
This becomes too much of a work as everytime when new currency comes in to system for any new vendor then we have to maintaine this currency not only with the company code currency but also with USD & SAR.
If the rates are to be maintained everyday then it will become a very hugh & complex task.
I am not sure whether this is the way it has to be maintained or is there any other way that can help us.
Like if we want to maintain CHF(vendor currency) in UAE I will simply maintain that but I should not be propted for maintaining CHF with SAR & USD.
Can system automatically pick up from AED(or for that matter any company code currency)>USD or AED>SAR ?
Please suggest as soon as possible.
Best Regards,
BM

Hi,
thx for the feedback.However, I could not get any much information from that as it talks about 3 currencies only.
Can anyone please suggest me & help me out in this ?
Best Regards,

OB08 Exchange Rate Maintainance

Dear Viewers,
I would like to get the clarification on Exchange Rate Maintainance. Can we maintain the exchange rate in production directly on daily basis or do we need to move the exchage rate by request in development .
Thanks

Hi
Regarding Authorization as a Functional Guy we wont do any settings.This is done by Basis Guy in SU01.
Every user will be assigned Roles and in Roles assigned are Authorization Objects.
You tell this requirement to your Basis Consultant, he will be aware of Authorization Objects of the Tcodes OBBS and OB08 and he will assign the relevant so that you will be able to access.

Hi,
Can any on eplease guide me how can I maintain exchane rates with any program.Are there any available ?
DO I need to maintain exchange rates like following
USD to AED and AED to USD with direct quote
AT times I get green error Eueo customizing not maintained.There are couple of notes.Out of that one note is 135661.
It is so descriptive and confusing that one may get lost in it.I am pretty sure that many prople have come across this problem.Can anyone please suggest me the exact steps to be performed to eliminate this and what is the severity of this green error ?
SAP notes at times are crazy.Instead of suggesting good short solution they will take you round the trees..This one I mentioned is like that.
Also this notes talks of old versions.
I am using ECC 6.0
Thansk in advance

Hi,
You need not worry about the OB08 entry for rate type EURO, it is needed by the system to determine the euro conversion. You will continue to update the other rate types like M, B, G with the EUR/SKK rate till 31.12.2008. Once you are on 01.01.2009, the currency of your country/company code will become EUR and you will not need to use any rate to convert to EUR.
BW will have no issues here, as it would also be using the rate type M, G, B etc for conversion till 31.12.2008. You will need to carry out the changeover steps in BI also.
Cheers.

Exchange rate maintainance as per company code or ledger in OB08

Hello,
Is it possible to maintain exchange rate as per company code or ledger in exchange rate table.
If not, please suggest any other alternative where I can maintain exchange rate as per company code or ledger.
Regards,
Tapan

In table T882, you can see ledger and company code assignment; with currency keys and additional currency types used for company code/ledger. You have option to choose the currencies at ledger and company code level, but not the currency type. Exchange rate type 'M' is used and even hard coded in many programs/transactions for actual postings. In planning, to some extent you have the option to choose exchange rate type, default is 'P'.

Fixed exchange rate in PO vs the exchange rate maintained in OB08

Dear experts,
When I input a PO in ME21N, I noticed that there is a field letting me to input exchange rate.
And I also know that the exchange rate the system automatically picks is from what we have maintained in OB08.
Can I understand that if we have no value input in ME21N, then the systems picks the exchange rate we setup in OB08 when we post invoice in MIRO?

Let me take an example to check if my understanding is correct.
In a German comapny, one PO is created in USD.
The exchange rate from USD to EUR is already maintained in OB08. I did not tick the fix indicator (not matter I input any rate in PO). The system will pick the rate from OB08 in MIGO and invoice posting, right?
Another scenario, I input the specific exchange rate in PO, and tick the fix indicator. The system will pick the rate from PO for MIGO and invoice posting, right?
Is there any chance we can input differenct exchange rate in GR or invoice from the one we used in PO?

Currency Exchange Rate Maintainance in BCS

Dear Experts,
I need a clarification, WHile maintaining Exchange Rate in BCS,
1) how the Exchnage Rate values reflects in R3
2) Vise versa While maintaining Exchange Rate in R3 how it reflects in BCS.
a) Is there any BCS or any machanism needs to be followed?
b) What are the different ways to handle this?
Regards
RItesh M

1) how the Exchnage Rate values reflects in R3
- Madhu answer is correct.
2) Vise versa While maintaining Exchange Rate in R3 how it reflects in BCS.
- The same table is used for dealing woth C/T in BCS and BW - they share the same table.
Tables for C/T, though, have the same names in R/3 and BW/BCS, belong to different instances and do not communicate. In BW, though, you may copy global settings from another source systems (including R/3).
a) Is there any BCS or any machanism needs to be followed?
- not clear what is meant. Set uo the C/T funcrionality in BCS.
b) What are the different ways to handle this?
- Should be used the standard currency rates functionality (the same tables).
But the load to these tables might be:
1. manual
2. from source systems (copy as described above).
3. load from a file.

Exchange Rate for Excise Invoice (J1IIN)

Hi Experts,
which field the exchange rate is considering to calculate the excise duty for export excise invoice?
We are maintaining Exchange rate in OB08 with Exchange rate type--M (Standard translation at average rate) on daily basic as per Bank Exchange rate.
But in excise invoice we want to calculate an exchange rate from customs which is maintained in different Exchange Rate Type (it will be changed on monthly basic).
We need to copy same exchange rate from billing to Excise Invoice which is not 'M' maintained in Company code setting in CIN config.
Please suggest,
Regards,

customer master level??is there any link between customer master and purchasing?
for my case, i have the exchange rate maintained in OB08 under exchange rate type "M" and rate of 1 JPY = 0.608 INR
during migo and after the conversion i got the below exchange rates for the respective custom duties.
BED = 28,742 JPY, after conversion in MIGO 17,475.13 INR, exch rate of 0.6079997912462598
AED = 12,740, after conversion in MIGO 7,747.02 INR, exch rate of 0.6080863422291994
CESS = 575, after conversion in MIGO 349.54 INR, exch rate of 0.607895652173913
SECess = 288, after conversion in MIGO 174.76 INR, exch rate of 0.6068055555555556
why is there a slight deviation among the exch rate among the 4 excise duties?is this behaviour normal?
because if i were to calculate using exch rate of 0.608, the results for the 4 excise dutie should be as below
BED = 17475.136 INR round off to 17,475.14
AED = 7745.92 INR round off to 7,745.92
CESS = 349.6 INR round off to 349.6
SECess = 175.104 INR round off to 175.10
please advice whether is there anything wrong and if the slight deviation above is a normal behaviour for 'M" exchange rate.
Also, i have also tried putting the 'fixed exchange rate' in the PO header but it's still havng the same symptoms.
Thank you.

System is taking Exchange Rate Value from PO at the time of MIRO

HI GURUS,
The problem is that the system is taking the value of exchange rate from PO when we are doing MIRO. We do not tick the field -fixed rate -in PO but still the system is taking the value of exchange rate from PO and not from the exchange rate maintained in OB08. In PO ,the value of exchange is rate is coming from the data maintained in OB08 but it becomes outdated by the time of MIRO. Please help.
Regards,
Mukesh

Hi Mukesh,
Please check mentioned conditions according SAP Note 128
Exchange rate differences between goods receipt and invoice receipt are posted under the following preconditions:
The invoice is posted in the same (foreign) currency as the purchase order.
The exchange rate in the purchase order is not fixed.
As a basic rule, an exchange rate difference is only posted as substitute for a price difference, that is, only in the case of stock material (standard price with variance or moving average price with stock shortage/undercoverage). The exchange rate difference results from the following calculation schema:
GR value in foreign currency at GR exchange rate
GR value in foreign currency at IR exchange rate
In the process, the quantity situation is of course taken into account. For example, in the case of IR before GR no exchange rate difference is posted, and in the case of "partial" invoices a proportional exchange rate difference is posted.
For cancelled invoices/credit memos, the following applies:
All invoices/credit memos/subsequent debits must be posted in the same (foreign) currency. (However, not necessarily in the PO currency). The exchange rate difference results from the following calculation schema:
Previous IR value in local currency at average exchange rate of previous invoices/credit memos/subsequent debits
IR value in local currency at exchange rate of present credit memo (in relation to the total quantity invoiced)
Here, too, an exchange rate difference is only posted as substitute for a price difference.
For delivery costs, exchange rate differences are posted to the stock account as long as stock coverage exists. No price difference lines are generated.
During the goods receipt no currency check is carried out and therefore, only the local currency is updated in the invoice.

Mani

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 type P is replaced with M

Hi,
We are using CATS for time booking and the process is as follows:
1) CAT2 -> Hours booked.. Lets assume: 9 HRs
2) CATS_APPR_LITE - > Time sheet approval -> Approved 9 Hrs
3) CAT9 -> CATS data transfer to cost object(PM order) -> During this transaction, system does calculate the amount needs to be tranferred based on price maintained in KP26 and hours booked. Lets say KP26 price is $100. That means controlling document will be generated for amount $900.
Note - As per system configuration, exchange rate type will always be P whenever CATS posting will happen and controlling document gets generated. That means, currency conversion will take place based on the exchange rates maintained for type P.
So as per business requirement, we have done an enhancement to the existing CATS process:
Price is manually determined at the time of CAT2 and same will be considered till the controlling document is generated. So, no price determination during CAT9. Therefore the strategy says it is a manual determiination of price and the Exchange rate type is determined as "M" and thats an issue because we do want to pass manual price but we want Exchange rate type as "P" as well.
Is there any way out or settings availabe in SAP or any user exit or an enhancement to achieve this functionality?
Thanks,
Aby

Hi Aby,
I believe these notes contain good information for this case:
1073979 (which I think is already in your system and therefore this behavior).
and
691613 (which explains the strategies)
Also, please check the entry you have defined in the transaction OKEV.
There, the system will make the translation depending on the
exchange rate defined.
I hope this helps.

Lucas

Exchange Rate Billing documents

Dear Friends,
In SAP billing process; I am facing the problem with the exchange rate. as the rates picked in the sales order as default exchange rates maintained for the day; if the sales order is MTO and goods will dispatched after 2 months and within these 2 month the exchange rate got floated by a large amount and during the billing with VF01 t-code; the exchange rate will be something else; and I canu2019t change it at that instance also.
The billing document will be posted to the accounting after getting the money from the customer and the exchange rate will become something else at this moment also; and make a large difference of amount at this instance. Is there is any provision in sap system so that I can change the exchange rate in the billing document and with this same exchange rate I can post the entries in accounting also. It will solve the problem as it will give me the billing amount in exact LC amount also.
Please provide the solution for the same.
Kraheja

Good Afternoon,
In the billing document there are 3 exchange rates, please review:
- VBRP-KURSK
Exchange Rate for the conversion Loc.currency <-> Doc.currency.
for Price Determination
The determination of this exchange rate depends on the setting
of TVCPFLP-PFKUR in customizing copy-control
- VBRK-KURRF.
Exchange Rate for the conversion Loc.currency <-> Doc.currency.
for FI postings
If there is a manual entry in the sales order field VBKD-KURRF
(Goto -> Header -> Accounting), then it is copied into VBRK-KURRF.
Otherwise VBRK-KURRF is determined during invoice creation.
It is supposed that manual entry has higher priority.
See the OSS note 36070.
- KOMV-KKURS
Exchange Rate for the conversion Cond.currency <-> Loc.currency
at price condition level.
It is always determined according to the Pricing date.
See the OSS notes 92613, 97487.
During VF01 the system determines the Exchange rate for FI posting
VBRK-KURRF from the currency tables according(OB08) to the billing date
only if the field Exchange rate for FI posting is empty in the
source sales document (VBKD-KURRF).
If the sales document has this field filled, manually or copied from
a reference invoice (by copy control routine), then it is copied
in the subsequent billing document. This is the standard working
of the system.
The exchange rate should be based on your configuration in copy control
(VTFA or VTFL) at the item category level. The choices you have are as
follows:
Pricing Exhange Rate Type (V_TVCPFLP-PFKUR)
A Copy from sales order
B Price exchange rate = Accouting rate
C Exchange rate determination according to billing date
D Exchange rate determination according to pricing date
E Exchange rate determination according to current date
F Exch.rate determination accord.to date of services rendered
I hope you find this information very helpful and hopefully it will solve your problem.

Exchange Rate fixed in PO but still difference in GRN

Dear All,
We are using exchange rate indicator fixed in Purchase Order but still value for custom duty in GRN is calculated as per the exchange rate maintained in OB08 for the date of posting the GRN.
PO created 31.03.2015 with document date as 30.03.2015 so that exchange rate is picked for previous date and fixed indicator ticked.
Custom invoice posted with exchange rate as in PO.
GRN posting date - 31.03.2015
But while posting GRN, custom duties are calculated as per exchange rate on 31.03.2015 instead of exchange rate maintained in PO.
Custom duty value 333.40 USD is calculated as 307.75 in GRN.
Regards
Vikas Sehra

Dear All,
I have also raised OSS for the issue for which I got below reply -
if you want your freight condition JCDB to be valuated as
per the fixed rate set in the purchase order, then, you need to post
the reception before than the invoice.
But I am not able to understand what and how to post reception.
Kindly suggest.

Import Goods Reciept(MIGO) - Exchange rate issue

Dear all,
In import procurement cycle,we are creating purchase order(backdated) on goods receipt,
maintained exchange rate(Currency EUR) based on exchange rate given by customs vendor in working sheet,
capturing custom duties in required condition types in purchase order,Doing Customs MIRO based on Purchase order in
currency INR,because duty is paid to customs through customs vendor in local currency,
maintained exchange rate for EUR Currency in OB08 for current date with exchange rate type 'M',
referring commercial invoice no.
in migo,entering all other details quantity,batch,date of manufacturing,delivery note no,bill of lading no.,excise invoice no,
excise date, excise duties were flowing fine except material base value which is calculated on 1 EUR = 44.17 INR,
But actual exchange rate maintained on purchase order & as well as in OB08 is 1 EUR = 63.75 INR ,
Material base value should be calculated for exchange rate 63.75 INR but it is calculating for 1 EUR = 44.17 INR,
Due to this accounting document get posted taking wrong exchange rate(44.17 INR)
Is there any configuration for exchange rate is missing ?
How to solve the above issue ???

Hi Jeyakanthan,
Normally in SAP Standard settings for exchange rate type 'M' for 'EUR' currency transactions will have alternative exchange rate type as 'EURX' please check the rate might be taking from EURX.
Kind Regards,
Kiran Yelamarthy

Import PO picking wrong exchange rate

Hi,
Import PO is picking worng exchange rate. we have maintained ZIMP ERT for import exchange rate but system is picking ZEXP ERT for import.
Please advise.
Regards,
Raj

Hello Ravi,
1. Check the exchange rate maintained in OB08 for the currencies that involved in the F-02 postings on which you are trying to post the document (ie., Posting Date of the doc -> Check for the posting date of the doc and the rate maintained for that particular date in OB08)
2. Check the 'Source Currency' field in OB22 transaction. This controls whether the translation curr base should be either your transaction currency or 1st local currency.
3. Check the ratio maintained for the currencies that involved for translation in OBBS transaction. Is it 1:100 or 100:1
