Exchnage Rates

Hi,
We are currently importing exchange rates in to SAP R/3 (ECC6.0) system using idocs of message type exchange_rate. The idocs come in with echange rates every day at 2:30 am in the morning for that particular day.
For eg on the 25th of June at 2:30 am we will get idocs for exchnage rate for that particular day.
However now as per business requirement we will be getting the exchange rate idocs at 3:30 pm in the afternoon with the next days rate (ie one day in advance).
For eg on the 25th of June at 3:30 pm in the afternoon we will get idocs for exchange rates with date 26th June.
My question is that due to this change, do we have change anything in R/3 either in config or anywhere else?
Thanks in advance.
Mick

Thanks j@y.
A few more details that might help.
As is process:
XI/PI picks up an file at 2:30 am and then passes the data to R/3 as an idoc of message type exchange_rate. The file has a column called Valid_To. This column has todays date. The values from the file, column valid_to are entered in the table TCURR, field GDATU
For eg: on the 25th of June XI receives a file at 2:30 am with the value in the Valid_To column as 25th June, 2009
To be process:
Now as per the new business requirement, XI/PI will pick up the exchange rate file at 3:30 pm in the afternoon everyday. This file will have tommorows date in the valid_to column.
For eg: on the 25th of June XI receives a file at 2:30 am with the value in the Valid_To column as 26th June, 2009. Therefore the exchange rates are applicable from the next day.
The question is do we need to make any changes in R/3 for the idocs to post successfully as they are doing now? Will the system allow the next days date to be entered in the TCURR table in the Valid From field? Or do we need to make some changes.

  • Foreign Currency Payments are not Picking up Exchnage Rates

    Hi,
    We are on R12.0.6 and while entering foreign currency payments the system is not picking up the exchange rate. It is only allowing us to enter USER exchange rate. The field of exchange rate on Payment form is greyed out and not showing anything.
    We have checked the rates and these are present in system. The same rates are picked up by invoice entry screens but for payments it gives us no exchange rate found.
    Has anyone faced this problem.

    Well, it seems that the "Exchange Rate" field on the Payment form populates when the user selects the Bank Account before the Payment Date field. Previously we were entering the information first in the Payment Date field and than selecting the Bank Account. This was preventing the Exchange Rate field from being populated with the rate.
    I just changed the order of the entry and it worked perfectly. Now first we select the bank from which payment is going to take take place and than the date, and the exchange rate is automatically picked up from the rates table.

  • Table for Exchnage Rate Maintenance

    Dear Experts,
    I am posting a Foreign Currency Document. The Foreign currency for me is Eur.
    In the Header of the document, I do mentioned Currency Eur with rate 70.55
    the system then gives a message, rate 70.55 deviates @59% of the table rate 44.17
    In the document, when i simulate there are few line items of Witholding Tax (TDS) which are calculated & generating automatically, but these Line Items, when displayed in local currency computes taking exchange rate 44.17
    in OB08, i DO NOT find any Eur / INR Exchange Rate which has 44.17
    how do i solve this problem. please help.

    Dear Hussein,
    First check whether any exchange rate type is maintained at Document Type level.
    Secondly If you don't find Eur / INR but may be INR/Eur is maintained for the exchange rate type. Check in table TCURR.
    Answer to system then gives a message, rate 70.55 deviates @59% of the table rate 44.17 is, go to OBY6 select your company code you will find Max. exchange rate deviation is less than 59%.
    Be patient and analyze the problem.

  • Exchnage rate determination

    Hi
    For an export transaction when we save billing document by default exchange rate type M is always transferred irrespective of what is maintained in customer master record
    I have got a note no 22781 where a data transfer routine is given which ,if applied will transfer exchange  rate type that  has been maintained in customer master record
    I am unable to determine where this routine has to be applied as there is no configuration node in SD for data transfer from billing document to accounting document
    Can you kindly guide me as to where should i apply this routine so that i can get the desired result
    Thanks and Regards
    Sunil Iyer

    Right now I dont have access to SAP but in VTFL, for the field "Data : VBRK/VBRP", you would have assigned some routine.  You can include the logic as specified in the note and try in development client.  Else, if you could see "Copying requirements", you can also try with this.

  • Exchnage rate types

    Dear All,
       Can anyone know is there any settings where we can maintain different exchange rate type for different co codes. my requirement is i wnat to assign different exchange rate types based on co codes is it possible in SAP.
    regards
    Pramod

    Hi,
    You have following option.
    1. You can map exchange rate type to be company code specific to Parrelel Currency only in OB22.
    2. Exchange rate types can differentiated using document type not the company code.
    In stadard system exchange rate type M is by default.

  • GR and IR exchange rate

    Hi,
    In my PO. the exchange rate, say, 7.80188 and there is no tick of exch rate fixed in PO header.
    During GR, another exchange rate, say, 7.90000.
    During IR, despite different translation date, but why exchange rate still the same as per GR which is 7.90000?
    May I know if GR and IR would be using the GR exchange rate so that GR and IR can be cleared completely?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If Exchange rate fix indicator is not set in the PO then at the time of GR the exchnage rate will be pick up from the value which is maitain in OB08 transaction, as there is difference in exchange rate in PO and GR but GR na d IR exchange rate is same this may be you have done GR and IR in the same period for which the exchange rate is same check with OB08 along with the validity period, also user cam manully put the exchange rate in MIRO check that too.

  • FI Forex gain loss & Exchange Rate difference on Foreign Currency & Chart of Accounts

    Dear All,
                 I have queries on following :
    1) what is difference b/w Forex gain loss account & Exchange Rate difference on Foreign Currency account .
    2) Under which Heads in Balance sheet they should come as per Indian Accounting Standards.
    3) Are these accounts common for Vendor & customers or different.
    4) they record FI data at Company code level or at sub-ledger level first (Vendor /Customer) .
    4) Is it advised to use same Chart of Accounts to two companies in same country by using different GL's with different FSV?
    Regards
    MJ

    Hi M J,
    Please note the answers below:-
    1. It is one and the same thing. When you say forex gain/loss account, it means a GL account and exchnage rate difference means, the difference in rates at which you purchased/sold and the rate at which you made paid/collected.
    2. Ask Client where they want to show these GL's in Financial statement Version.
    3. The configuration setting is in OB09 and SAP allows you to keep same or diff GL for both realised Exchnage rate gain/loss. It depends on how you want to see. technically it is possible.
    4. The Valuation is done at company code level, but individual records are picked up at vendor/customer level. It means that the revaluation gain/loss adjustment is not given to each individual Vendor/Customer, rather it is posted to a GL - Balance Sheet adj.
    5. Yes, you can use same chart of accounts and you do not need to create separate GL's at the company code level for two company codes. Same GL's can be used as the posting is made at Co. code level.
    Regards,
    Kavita
    Note : Please raise separate thread for different questions. Your Point No. 5 is not related to the rest.

    Akshay

    According to me, system wont calculate exch rate differences during MIRO.
    Please make sure that, you have not selected the Exch Rate Fixed check box in PO header part, next to the exch rate field.
    MIGO Entry:
    Inventory/Expense  Dr 100USD   5000INR
    GR/IR......................Cr 100USD   5000INR
    MIRO Entry:
    GR/IR......................Dr 100USD   4700INR
    Vendor....................Cr 100USD    4700INR
    In this case, system will create  0 USD & 300 INR for forex diff gl line item, when you clear the GR/IR open items only.
    Assume INR is your LC.

  • PO - Exchange rate - Fixed

    Hi
    I have a set of PO's which does not have any receipt. In that set of PO's, for some PO's I can able to change the
    Exchange Rate fixed from tick to UN tick. But for some PO's it's not possible.
    Please give me some hit about the Exchange Rate - Fixed configuration.
    Thanks
    ARAS

    Hi
    The control parameters are paased from the Project systems.
    In Project system, Exchange rate are defined for planning costs and revenue.
    You can find the Exchnage rates in the following manu :
    SPRO--> PS --> Costs --> Planned costs --> Define exchange rates. (Here you can observe fixed exchange rate check box against each exchange rate). These exchange rate types will be mapped to Project profile.

  • Wrong exchange rate is transferred from CRM to ERP R3 via BDoc.

    Hi All,
    In CRM system, whenever quantity contract(QC) is created, it is sent to R3 with all details via Bdocs
    Exchange rate of QC which is present in CRM  is different than in R3.
    But when same contract is opened in R3 in change moce and do some changes it re determine the correct exchnage rate and updates the same in contract.
    But again when same contract is changed in CRM then again updates are sent to R3 with previous wrong exchnage rate.
    Please tell how to see which exchnage rate is available in Bdocs at the time of sending.
    Why is it not updating as per the exchange rates in R3.
    Please give your valuable inputs on this.
    Regards,
    Prashant

    Hi,
    Yes We checked the Bdoc. Currency rate is correct in CRM side but when it is sent to ECC, it changed to something else value which does not exist in TCURR table of both systems.

  • Exchange rate in PO / GR/ IR

    Is there any configuration part to set exchange rate in Purchase Order / Goods Receipt / Invoice receipt ?

    Hi
    As far as I am aware there are no specific settings which are directly responsible for Exchange rates for PO /GR and MIRO stage. Exchange rate directly flows from the Master table for it which is maintained in the Txn code OB08.
    However you can manually change the Exchnage rate during PO & In voice only and not during GR. IN PO at the header level you have  Delivery/Invoice tab for exchange rate change and during Invoice in MIRO you have details tab at header level where you can change the exchange rate.

  • Foreign Exchange Rate Type - M and EURO

    Hi All,
    My customer is maintainng the M exchange rate type as
    1 USD = 106 JPY
    along with this they are maintiaing a extra Exchange rate Type EURO as
    106 JPY = 1 USD
    Comany Code Currency is JPY.
    In the document Type level they are not maintaing any of the exchage rate type. Means system is picking default exchnage rate type. As we know M is the default exchange rate type.
    So, now customer doesnt want to maintain the EURO exchange rate type.
    So,  i want to know
    1. if customer not want to maintain the EURO exchange rate then it would give any impact on the working.
    2.Is any realtion between to maintain the two exchnange rate type.
    3. On a document level, can we know that by using which exchnage rate it was processed. whether its was processed from M or EURO. We want to know the Exchange rate type of each document.
    4. In M Exchane rate type we have both Direct and Indirect Quotation for same currency pair. So in this case which qutation system would take for the document processing as default quotation for a exchange rate type M.
    Looking for early response.
    Sachin

    1. if customer not want to maintain the EURO exchange rate then it would give any impact on the working.
    <There is no impact as long as this is not used by any other applications. For eg, In controlling, project system, budget, at FI document type level etc, we have option of choosing different exchange rate.
    2.Is any realtion between to maintain the two exchnange rate type.
    No relation
    3. On a document level, can we know that by using which exchnage rate it was processed. whether its was processed from M or EURO. We want to know the Exchange rate type of each document.
    < You can see this at Table level eg - BKPF. But at front end I dont think it is possible atleast upto 4.6C4. In M Exchane rate type we have both Direct and Indirect Quotation for same currency pair. So in this case which qutation system would take for the document processing as default quotation for a exchange rate type M.
    <To my knowledge, System will not allow to maintain rates in both types. so question of option doesnt come>
