F.05 - Old difference

Hi all,
Actually my client is running F.05 transaction for reporting the vendor balances at every month end in local currency.
After the postings are made in the vendor, they try to reconcile it manually by multiplying the Exchange rate and the vendor balances in foreign currency existing on the last date of the month and deducting/adding the forex difference GL accounts amount.
Now, while reconciling, get a difference between their manual calculation (which is showing a bigger balance) and SAP's calculation (vendor balances + recon accounts).
The figure is actually the "old difference" in f.05 report.
Now they want to know why this difference is coming in!
Thanks

  • 'Old Difference' field in Foreign Currency Valuation transaction

    hi all,
    While clearing a foreign currency transaction in local currency, the some part of the exchange difference is going to balance sheet exch val acccount and rest to P&L exchange val diff account.
    When i checked in F.05, I could find the amount (the amount which is going to BS account while clearing above transaction) in 'Old Difference' column in F.05.
    Could anyone please explain me where from this comes - and transaction effects this field.
    Thanks in advance,

  • How to reverse proposal posting in F.05 - For exchng Valuation

    Hi,
    When we do foriegn exchange valuation through F.05 it creates a proposal posting and a session SAPF100, only when we run the batch input session the actual postings take place. But before processing the Batch session if i try to execute again F.05, it doesnot pick up the previous proposal postings. Our client has used a Recon A/c as a balance sheet adjustment account and now when they are doing the Valuation of open items using f.05 all the batchjobs are going in error, thats why we have changed the Balance sheet adjustment a/c , but the system it is not picking up the previous posting proposals, we guess that they are updating in some internal table, please let me know how to reverse these proposal postings.  I have tried by deleting the batch input sessions, but its of no use.
    Thanking you in advance

    Hi,
    it seems that you have selected the "balance sheet valuation" flag (right below "Create postings) when executed F.05 for the first time. Doing so, not only a batch input session will be created, but the original open items are updated. You can check this when displaying any of those items simply in FB03, go into that open item, and then choose the menu path Environment --> Valuation --> Display values. If you can see some figures there, then I my assumption is correct.
    Now, when you try to run F.05 again (no changes to the data in the meantime), then the same open items don't get revaluated again. This has honestly nothing to do with the fact whether you have processed the batch input session or not. The reason you can se yourself in the column called "Old difference" in the list of the 2nd F.05 run. You will notice that this old difference (shown in FB03) is the same as the currently calulated difference, so for this time, there is nothing more to post. That's why you wont see new items, using your changed G/L accounts for the balance sheet adjustment.
    Here is how to resolve this:
    Define a new valuation method in the IMG. You do not have to bother with the detailed settings, important is only that you select the radio button called "Reset" for this new method.
    Then go to F.05 and choose the new method. You can restrict the selection to the open items in question only to make it run faster. (If you have a list of those items). This will erase the valuation figures from the items. You have no any other (standard) option to achieve this, no reversal, document change, etc. will help you, only this specific valuation method.
    Hope that helps, points welcome

  • F.05 foreign currency revaluation (Balance sheet preparation valuation)

    Hi,
    I have run the revaluation (F.05) for a balance sheet account by mistake ticking the "balance sheet preparation valuation" box. Hence i could see some value populated in the coulmn old differences in the revaluation report. Please advice will this have any wrong impact to that account. if so how can i reset the posting made and run the revaluation without ticking the "balance sheet preparation valuation" box.
    Thanks and Regards,
    VK

    Hello VK,
    You could reset the valuation difference by using the following method:
    1.T-cd:OB59->selecting the valuation method ->in valuation precedure area, selecting "reset" radio button->save it.
    2. T-cd:F.05 ->using the same parameters that you ticked the balance sheet preparation valuation" box when you ran F.05 last time.
    3.After running F.05->BSEG-BDIFF will be reset to zero in valuated docs.

  • F.05 Foreign Currency Valuation BDIFF not empty

    Hi gurus,
    When we execute F.05 transaction for November 2008 we have the same
    amount in our output list in columns "old difference" and "new
    difference", no amount for posting. Before this error we have executed F.05 and reseted
    the postings with F.05, and now when we wanted to execute it again we
    got this problem, nothing to post.
    We can see in BSID-BDIFF and also in BSEG-BDIFF that the amount of calculated variances for
    November is present.
    Can you help us with suggestions of how to clear this field.

  • Foreign currency valuation (F.05)

    Hi,
    When i am valuating open items of vendors thru f.05 what has happened is :
    1.) First time it passes the entry for the difference in the currencies.
    2.) Second time it passes  the entry for the net difference i.e new diifference -old    difference.
    I fail to understand that when my 1st entry gets reversed on the next day, why the system passes the entry for the net amount & not the entire new diiference.
    Can anyone pls. help. Its urgent
    Thanks
    Regards

    Hi,
    On the first tab Posting when you select Reverse posting and fill an Reversal posting date the system will reverse the posying on this day.
    In the most situations they are running this report on the end of the month, create the posting in the old month and reverse it in the new month!
    Look to the help on the field bal sheet preparation valuatn. There are more options to work with F.05.

  • Reversal entry for f.05 foreign currency valuation

    Hi all,
    we are in SAP 4.7 R/3.
    we run f.05 for balance sheet bank account (the Gl currency USD).
    when we run f.05 there supposed to generate the reversal entry automatically by the system. but in our case there is no reversal entry generated.
    now i want to do the reversal manually .i have tried the fb08 but it is useless and fund that we can not reverse the document posted through the tcoed f.05 in fb08.
    the entry posted during the f.05 is:
    50     bank a/c                 0 USD     and   3,6890 INR
    40 unrealised gain/loss     0 USD     and   3,6890 INR.
    now i want to reverse the above entry manually as there is no reversal entry generated during the f.05.
    now my doubt is how to reverse the above entry and we can only post USD to the bank GL acc. can not post INR directly to GL.
    but in the above entry USD is showing the 0 amount.
    please seggest me its very very urgent.
    i would appreciate your speed reply.
    thank you,
    Sandhya Reddy.

    Hi,
    If you checked "Bal.sheet preparation valuatn" in the "Postings" tab of F.05, it will not permit a reversal posting. The valuation difference will be written into your open items, and the next month, F.05 will only record the difference between the last revaluation run and the curren revaluation run.
    You can also tell if you used "Bal.sheet preparation valuatn" if you see numbers in the column "Old Difference".
    Best regards,

  • Forex realize account

    I have maintained INDIRECT forex rate in OB08
    I have posted an  journal entry for a GL in Foreign currency .
    I run F.05, But I  see the ACCOUNT column blank and also OLD DIFFERENCE coumn as "0"
    Can any one please help ,where iam wrong as in account column the EX P/L account needs to display.
    Thnks

    No. F.05 is for foreign currency valuation.  If that is what you are trying to do, then you would have to create your valuation methods in OB59 where you specify the document type such as FX.
    You need to define two valuation methods. One for Balance Sheet and one for Income Statement. In the Balance Sheet valuation method, check off radio button always valuate. Document Type as FX and then exchange rate type for debitbal and creditbal as 0011.
    For Income Statement valuation method, check off always valuate and specify document type as FX.  Then for exchange rate type for both debitbal and creditbal, enter 0012.
    If you have not yet created the document type FX, you may want to do so. Name the document type as FX Revaluation ( you do not need to follow me rigidly. Give a description you like).
    In the document type, enter 01 for number range, reverse document type as FX.  Check off all account types allowed. Under default values, enter M. and then save.

  • Color Settings, nightmare!

    Hello everyone.
    I'm having very annoying problem. I've been doing a web-site design in Photoshop CS3 with sRGB color profile. My Mac (2008 Mac Pro, 6GB Ram, 8800GT) uses Cinema HD color profile. When I published my site, the colors in Safari were lighter than in Photoshop's workspace. When I check how it look on my laptop with Vista, it was 10% darker than on a Mac.
    I'm totally lost on how to make my site look identical on both PC and a Mac.
    I tried to set Leopard's color profile to sRGB, then it looked identical. But I don't believe it's a correct way since ALL OTHER COLORS look darker and more contrast with sRGB.
    Please guys, I need help on this one!! Thanks in advance!

    This confusion just goes on and on.
    "print 1.8."
    "Web 2.2"
    No, no, no.
    Please stop perpetuating this kind of thing.
    Or that Gamma has anything to do with the "brightness" of the screen or image. (The old difference in brightness problem between Macs and PCs)
    Gamma is a value which is a measure of the monitor's physical response and all the circuitry that drives it (principally the video card and associates RGB Lookup Table(s)).
    Gamma, when correctly set, while screen brightness is (otherwise) set to an acceptable level, allows the entire video system to perform optimally, therefore producing the smoothest transitions from lightest to darkest and the greatest number of actual gray levels. The maximum theoretical number of grays per RGB channel is 256. No video system ever actually achieves that number, but getting gamma right gets the response as close as possible.
    Gamma is measured with a hardware monitor calibrator and can vary from about 1.6 to 2.0, depending on the actual monitor and associated circuitry. It usually IS around 2.2 for most monitors and their video cards available today. But if the measured value is other than that, the correct value should be used to get the best visual appearance of the image.

  • Reg: F C Valuation

    Hi
    While doing FC valuation through transaction code F.05 my client didnot checked the Reverse posting Check box and reversed the entries manully. Again when he run the FC valuation for next month system is showing the old difference and new difference and posting the difference between old and new.
    Now my question, is there any setting where system should only calculate new difference and post only new difference instead of posting the difference between old and new.
    Version is 4.7
    Regards
    Vinay Bhaskar

    Hi Manju
    There is a step to do the basic setting for forigen currency valuation which are below:
    1.Define Valuation Methods -OB59
    2.Creation of G/L Accounts -FS00
    3.Prepare Automatic Postings -OBA1
    4.Term Loan Receipt in Foreign Currency -F-02
    5.Enter Exchange Rates -OB08
    And then finally will go for Foreign Currency Balances Revaluation (Forex Run) -f.05.

  • Differences between my MBA and old MBP

    I've noticed a few differences in the behavior of these two computers, and I prefer the OLD way better, but I can't figure out how to do it.
    In the past, both my iMac & MBP allowed me, in Mail, to use my mouse/trackpad to select a whole string of emails at once, either by just scrolling down, or by holding COmmand as I clicked on each email. I could then delete the whole bunch at once.
    But now, on the MBA, I can only select and delete one item at a time.   Is there a setting somewhere I am missing?
    On the old computers, I could wake my computer by moving the mouse.  Now I have to hit a key to wake from sleep.  Not a biggie, but old habits die hard! :-)
    Other "new" stuff I see on the MBA:
    Under DEVICES in the FINDER, I see a "Remote Disk" that has nothing in it, and that I cannot remove. If I look in GET INFO, it gives me no information, other than a box I can check to Lock it.  What the heck is this?
    Oddly, while I CAN charge my iPhone via the USB port, it will not charge my Nook via that same Port.  And when I try to attach an external hard drive using a USB hub, it won't see the EHD - but that same hub allows me to charge the iPhone, or attach a mouse.
    Battery seems to last FOREVER! :-)

    I can help with one of those questions -- the Remote Disk. Since the MacBook Air does not have an optical drive, you can use remote disk to share another computer's optical drive. The following has information: DVD or CD sharing: Using Remote Disc

    You cannot "update" from what you have to any of the applications you mention. It will have to be a straight purchase or subscription at full price.
    Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
    Lightroom is all about volume, and very light editing.

  • What is the difference between the new and old ipad mini case?

    I was wondering what the difference is between the old ipad mini case and the new one which came out with the ipad mini with retina display?

    I just bought an iPad Mini case for my iPad Mini with Retina Display, and it DOES NOT FIT...  This particular case has a hard plastic cradle for the iPad to fit into and it does not wrap around the edges enough to hold it in...  I am shocked at how snug these cases will fit, even though there is only a 0.01" difference in thickness...  So again, I repeat, an iPad Mini with Retina Display WILL NOT FIT into the first gen iPad Mini case!
