Exchange rate rounding differences

Hi,
when i am posting a document in FB01 transaction, there is a minor difference blw the document currency and local currency.
the document currency balances to zero but the local currency gives a balance of 0.03 or 0.02 blw debit and credit lines. i can post this document by correcting this small difference.
Please let me know if there is any configuration settings in Fi to avoid this scenerio.
thank you

Hi,
Please go to OB90 and maintain the value as 100 against ur company code.

How to change exchange rate rounding

Hello guys,
our customer requires to have exchange rates rounded to 3 decimal places. For direct FX rates it is not problem. But, the customer also requires to have rounded to 3 decimal places calculared cross FX rates (ie. FX rates calculated by SAP through reference currency) and not to 5 decimal places as offers SAP standard. Can anybody help how to change FX rates rounding policy?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
This cannot be done by a setting. The currency rate field has 5 decimals and it cannot be changed.
There are rounding rules you can set with OB90, but even that is not what you are looking for.
The only option you have is to not let the cross rate be calculated by the system but is explicity entered or uploaded in OB08. In this way you can ensure that no rate enters with decimals more than 3.
Cheers.

System is trying to post exchange rate rounding revenues to a cost center!

Hello experts,
We are trying to clear some accounts payable items and also run the payment program. Both operations are trying to post revenue to a cost center (and profit center), and we get an error (because cost center is locked against revenues, and we want to keep it that way...).
We have implemented the New GL with document split. We have setup account 80600 for revenue exchange rate differences in configuration. We have setup in OKB9 account 80600 for exchange rate differences to be posted to a profit center. Account 80600 is defined as a revenue element (type 11).
Can anybody please explain why the system is deriving the cost center and profit center when trying to post the revenue, instead of just the profit center?
Eventually if I cannot solve this issue, can anybody tell me how to change a cost element category of a cost element (from 11 to 1) which already has transactions posted to?
Thank you for your help in advance!
Best regards,
Jose Eximeno

How to post the revenue on exchange rate in SAP ?

Hi All,
a Company gets a g.l. bank account in USD (account currency). The local currency is EUR.
2010.01.01: its balance was 9.527,23 USD (account currency). Given a currency exchange rate 1 USD x 1,4406 EUR, the amount of the account in local currency was 6.613,38 EUR.
2010.01.15: the bank account is closed. Given a currency exchange rate 1 USD x 1,4374 EUR, the amount of the account in local currency is 6.628,10 EUR
When the account bank is closed the balance in local currency is 14,72 EUR -
2010.01.01 --> 9.527,23 USD (account currency); 6.613,38 EUR (local currency).
2010.01.15 --> 9.527,23 USD (account currency); 6.628,10 EUR (local currency).
20.01.15: in local currency I've to post a revenu of 14,72 EUR
Could anyone tell me which account posting I've to do for this revenue?
Thanks

The differemce is due to exchange rate difference post the difference in a new g/l name it exchange rate diff. revenue account for more read below:
Exchange Rate Rounding Differences
When an invoice is posted in a foreign currency, the amounts are translated into local currency. Since the system rounds off the amounts in each posting line, this can lead to rounding differences due to the currency translation.
These differences are posted to an expense or income account.
During the document check, the system displays a posting line for the corresponding account.
Thanks,
Vishal

Exchange rate different flow

Hi guy
I have this PO (exhange rate not fixed) created last month, and this mth I did the GR and LIV.. somehow there is a different in the exchange rate.. where does the different goes to?
Any idea?
Regards,
Esther

It will post to MM exch rate different (KDM) in tcode OBYC, please check below help text from SAP:
Exchange rate differences in the case of open items (KDM)
Exchange rate differences in the case of open items arise when an
invoice relating to a purchase order is posted with a different
exchange rate to that of the goods receipt and the material cannot
be debited or credited due to standard price control or stock
undercoverage/shortage.
additional:
Differences due to exchange rate rounding, Materials Management
(KDR)
An exchange rate rounding difference can arise in the case of an
invoice made out in a foreign currency. If a difference arises when
the posting lines are translated into local currency (as a result of
rounding), the system automatically generates a posting line for
this rounding difference.

Exchange rate difference in GR & IR

Hi experts,
      I am using " V" price control for imported goods. Many times exchange rate at the time of IR is different from GR.
     So, while posting vendor invoice (i.e. MIRO) exchange rate difference is posted to Exchange rate diff A/C (KDM account) only if stock quantity (book inventory quantity) is smaller than IR quantity or "zero". Otherwise this exchange difference is posted to "stock account" (if stock is available).
    At the time of MIRO, I want every exchage rate difference to be posted to Exchange rate diff a/c (KDM account) regardless of stock quantity and price procedure (V or S).
How to do this? Pls help me out. Thanks in advance
regards
jai

Hi,
When an invoice relating to a purchase order is posted with a different exchange rate to that of the goods receipt exchange rate; the differences arisen for the open items will be posted to the transaction/ event key 'KDM' in the case of Standard price control "S" automatically.
And, incase of Moving Average Price control "V", you need to take care that stock is undercoverage/shortage, to trigger KDM.

Narayana.

Exchange rate diff at the time of GR

Hi All,
l have an issue which is, when l fix the exchange rate in my PO, at the point of goods receipt, differences are generated. that is,
at date 01.02.09, exchange rate on PO is fixed.
at date 11.02.09, goods receipt is done and when the accounting document is checked
it post a difference between the fixed PO rate and what's maintained on the exchange rate table
to the forex account. So l get this:
Dr Stock account
Dr Price diff account
Cr GI/IR account
Cr Forex account
Note: that IV is not yet carried out here at all. Price control is moving average.
My understanding is that differences arise between the time of GR and IV, if PO is not fixed.
Regards

Hi
If you fix the exchange rate indicator in purchase order, and doing GR (different exchange rate has been maintianed in OB08), then you inventory will be valuated at PO exchange rate. Difference will go to gain/loss on exchange rate (foreign currency exchange rate account). Same will be negated by price difference account.
You have one more setting for IV exchange rate in MM - LIV - incoming invoice - how exchange rate difference are treated. Here you maintain the settings for GR and IR exchange rate differences.
Checking the exchange rate fix in PO has nothing to do with GR and IR rate differences as through out the process the rate is constant.
Thanks

CKM3 - PPV analysis: split between exchange rate effect and price effect

Dears,
I need to verify how the purchase price variance (PPV) is calculated within the Material Ledger, specifically regarding the split between exchange rate effect and price effect.
I found transaction CKM3 that display the exchange rate difference and the price difference (I think total price difference = exchange rate effect + price effect), but I still have some open points:
- How CKM3 should works? I created some documents to test this transaction (goods receipt from purchase order and its invoice) creating a PPV with exchange rate effect and price effect (both) but in CKM3 the split is not shown, only the total PPV is shown at document level.
- Is there same specific procedure to be followed? Is there other steps to be done before CKM3 is executed in order to split the PPV?
and then
- Is CKM3 the best solution to analyze the PPV within Material Ledger?
Thanks and Regards,
Jody

Tnx Adi,
this link is very helpful, now I've an idea about how the data should be shown in CKM3.
But at the moment I replicated a similar case to the example mentioned in the link, and in CKM3 I see different values: all PPV amounts are only present in column "Price difference" without the part due to the exchange rate effect.
Do you know if I need to execute a preliminary step before to execute CKM3? Or is there something to be set-up in custominzing in order to allow the correct population of the exchange rate price difference?
Thanks & Regards,
Jody

MIRO - Postings during Foreign invoices - Exchange rate variance

Hi
I noticed while posting foreign exchange PO's where there is both price variance and exchange rate difference the system posts price variance in foreign currency with a local currency amount of 0 and posts foreign exchange variance in local currency with a foreign currency amount of 0.
can someone explain whether this is standard SAP? What is the logic? How do we do reporting in such cases?
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
As far as foreign exchange rate variance the entries are correct. The difference will be only in Local Currency and not in transaction currency. For example if the transaction currency is USD and Local currency is INR, when there is a change in exchange rate the difference is recorded only in INR. As far as USD is concerned there is no change.
Thanks
Murali.

Exchange rate and GST round off differences

Hi,
When we create a invoice with tax then some times the vendor invoice tax amt may differ from the tax amt calculated by our system. This may be due to the rounding differences. So how to handle these kind of payments?
Can any one pls explain me the procedure for handling the exchange rate differences.
Thanks,
Sravanthi.

Dear Sravanthi,
The difference is not because of the rounding off. Rounding off differnce come only till nearest rupee. And that is acceptable. But in your case I think the difference is coz of the exchange rate maintained in the system. If you maintain the exchange at which the vendor invoice is preapared then i think ur problem may get resolved.
Also execute F.05 - Valuation of open items in foreign currency, before you run the payment transaction.
Hope this will help you.

Ajay

Exchange rate difference in f-03

Hi all
pl. help me. I am not able to clear open item in f-03 which is maintained in BRL. I am posting payment in usd. the error reads:
Ex.rate diff.accts are incomplete
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.
I have called transaction OBA1, and entered the GL a/c and currency BRL. Even i cannot save it says
"Enter line items first or choose open items"
pl reply friends urgently
Thks
uma

Hi Uma,
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.

GR/IR Exchange Rate Difference behavior

Dear guru,
I would like to know for the case of Invoice Receipt (IR) before goods receipt (GR) in different month with different exchange rate.
For example:
AUD is the local currency
PO# 1230000001, PO currency EUR, Material A, Unit Price 1EUR each, total quantity 100, without GST.
Invoice receipt (IR) @ 01-Dec-2008, with rate 1.95330 From EUR to AUD.
TCode MIRO
Dr GR/IR   100 EUR, 195.33 AUD
Cr Vendor 100 EUR, 195.33 AUD
Now, we do goods receipt (GR) @ 01-Jan-2009, with rate 2.02740 from EUR to AUD.
TCode MIGO
What should be the proper behavior?
I tried that myself in the system, and found 3 different behaviors.
Behavior A (Both Foreign Curr & Local Curr Amt is the same as IR amt, and a pair of Price Difference Posting)
Cr GR/IR   100 EUR, 195.33 AUD
Dr Inventory   100 EUR, 195.33 AUD
Dr Exchg Rate Diff   0 EUR, 7.41 AUD
Cr Material Variance   0 EUR, 7.41 AUD
Behavior B (Foreign Currency Amount is the same as IR amount)
Cr GR/IR   100 EUR, 202.74 AUD
Dr Inventory 100 EUR, 202.74 AUD
Behavior C (Local Currency Amount is the same as IR amount)
Cr GR/IR   96.35 EUR, 195.33 AUD
Dr Inventory 96.35 EUR, 195.33 AUD
I would like to know where in the system configuration or master setup control the above behavior?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Chris

Hi:
        Please check account assignments in OBA1..KDF ,,See if GRIR clearing accounts have been maintained there or not. If not then they should be maintained there . Further double click after maintaining account there and there you will have to assign GL account for exchange rate gain and loss . Also check in OBYC the assignment of GRIR clearing account,
