Foreign Currency items

Hi Guru
I have posted a vendor invoice in USD which is convrted in GBB as per exchange rate maintained in F-62. Against this invoice payment is received in GBB. But when I am going to clear these line items through F-44 the line item of invoice, which is posted in USD shows different value while in FBL1N it shows the correct value as well as when i see the documents in F-44 line item it shows right fig. that means only in the main screen of F-44 the amount is diffeerent thereby I am unable to clear the line items.
Guru how I should clear it. tell me

Hi,
In F-44 the USD amount will be shown in GBB at the exchange rate for the day of the clearing, this is so that the exchange differences can be calculated correctly.
Solution a) Post the clearing with a date where the rate is such that the converted USD amount = GBB amount.
b) When clearing add an additional manual exchange difference line. (F7) "Charge off Diff"
Kind regards

Foreign Currency valuation on Foreign currency items posted in Local currency accounts

Hi Gurus,
I have accounts maintained in local currency and only balances in local currency is not checked. Some items are posted in foreign currency.
Now system is doing foreign currency valuation on foreign currency balance of this account. I dont want system to do that.
Now how to correct it. I can make balance zero of account and then mark that tick of only balances in local currency but still system will do foreign currency valuation on items posted.
Appreciate you help in solving this issue. How to handle it?
Thanks

Hi ,
While executing Foreign currency valuation, you can select the GL accounts for valuation. Try to not input these local currency GL's.

Payment program F110 for Vendor Open Item in Foreign currency

Dear sap Guru
Is it possible to Ensures that no exchange rate differences are posted by the payment
Program? I mean: The amount in the bank posting in local currency does not result from translating the foreign currency amount at the current rate but from the total of the local currency amounts from the settled items.
Best regards
marco

Dear PAtel,
I checked and the ther eis the check box 'No exchange rate differences' anyway during the payment program execution the system is making some recalculation for open item in fc.
Someone knows what is the coloumn "Valuation Difference" in the Dysplay Payment Proposal Open Item list?

Item Standard Cost for foreign currency purchase order

Hi there
I have a question about
We have foreign currency purchases of USD which is fixed in USD.
Currently, we are converting this into AUD and entering this as the standard cost.
But if the currency rate is changed, we need to adjust the standard cost of AUD even though the price of USD is still the same.
Does Oracle have standard functionality where we can enter the USD purchase price into the system and have the system rate convert it to AUD whenever we have a new exchange rate?

Hi,
my solutioning would be
1. Create an Org where in item cost is maintained in US$, and perform no material transactions in this Org.
2. Use the prog 'Copy Item Costs Across Organizations', to copy the cost from US$-Org to AUS$-Org using any conversion rate as defined (Corporate, or average etc)
Use this process on regular basis so that you have the latest coversion and cost rate.

Display Open Items in Foreign Currency (LC3) during Clearing

Hi all.
Please advice, how can we display LC3 in open item clearing transactions (like F-03)?
Our problem is that we need to clear accounts which have amounts only in LC3 (other amounts = 0) and users can't select proper document to clear.

Hi Philip,
During the clearing is not posible to display open items in foreign currency LC3.
As workaround you can do the following:
You can display with FBL*N the open items to be cleared by choosing in the layout "Amt in loc.curr. 3", and then when using the clearing transaction (F-53 for example) through additional selections insert the document numbers noted before from the FBL*N.
Hope this workaround helps.

F-32 - clearing customer items in foreign currency

Hello gurus,
please, where in SPRO can I set the possibity of clearing customer items in foreign currency in F-32 ?
Presently all items are converted to local currency and it's not possible to switch into foreign currency.
Vendor open items we can clear in foreign currency in F-44, but customer open items not.
Thank you,
Ondrej

What error you are getting in F-32 while clearing the customer in foreign currency?
Please check whether in FS00 for that customer reconciliation account, you have selected the check box "Balance in local currency". If yes, then that will not allow you to clear in foreign currency.

SDNer

Clearing of GL open items F-03 for foreign currency trans

Hi there,
I am trying to clear a GL open item managed Bank clearing a/c which has a payment document with foreign currency amount (doc cur) and LC1 and LC2.
The doc is posted in Aug 08. When I try to clear it in Sept 08 i see that LC1 and LC2 are showing diff amount from the posted amount. Since i am using this GL a/c as bank clearing will there be double exchange diff calculated....1) during payment of invoice and 2) during clearing from this Bank clearing a/c to Bank a/c.
I guess the difference is because of two diff clearing date but is this standard or is there any settings to control this. Looked through but could not find anything.
Any of you have any comments on this, please let me know.
Thank you very much
RG

when you clear the open item, the system will pick up the exchange rate mentioned in the tables (Tcode OB08) and the difference in the exchange rate entered in the invoice and the exchange from the tables at the time of payment will be proposed.
If you enter the payment document with the same exchange rate you had given at the time of invoicing, there will not be any difference.
Check you settings in OB08.

Foreign Currency Valuation - GL at the time of clearing of open items

Hi experts,
We valuate the open items (Balance sheet items) in Company Code Currency without checking the reversal option.
At the time of clearing of these open items, the GL used for reversal of the valuation difference is been different.
GL mapped in OBA1:
Exch.rate diff realized
Loss/Gain: 716000
Valuation: Loss/Gain - 716001
Bal.Adj 1: 101699
Translation:
Loss/Gain: 716000
Bal.sheet adj -Loss/Gain: 716001
At the time of clearing of open items:
The entry which is getting passed for the reversal of the valuation difference is some time posted to GL: 101699 and sometime to GL 716000. The off-setting GL been Clearing GL(which is been valuated).
Could someone kindly through some light as to why the system behaving in such a way. We expect the GL at the time of reversal to be 101699.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pradeep,
The principle of foreign currency revaluation works as follows for the open items like AR, AP and Bank Balances:
At the period end the system revaluates the open items (or balances, as the case may be) with the period end exchange rate and thus posts the difference between the original exchange rate (at the time the open item was created) and the period end rate. This could be loss or gain due to revaluation. One side of the entry is P&L (7...account) and the other side is the balance sheet (the balance sheet account typically comes from AR, AP or Bank/Cash range).
This loss or gain is not realized since at the period end the open item is still out there. When you clear the open item, the loss or gain due to the latest exchange rate is realized immediately and is posted to realized loss or gain, with an offset to the original balance sheet account.
I hope the above helps.

Foreign currency conversion is wrong in line item report

Hi All,
I have a system which went live recently as of 1st of Sept. 2011. Hence my cut off is 31st Aug.2011.
Now, i have uploaded customer open line items in foreign currency. Hence, at cutover my exchange rate was as per month of Aug. Now when I want to post an incoming payment through f-28 I see a different amount in my local currency i.e INR. The difference is exactly the difference due to change of exchange rate. However, my question is once when a document is posted then why does the system shows the amount in INR as per the next month's i.e sept's exchange rate?
Can anybody help me on this please?
Thanks
Priyanka.

Priyanka,
The system is behaving exactly according to accounting principles. For foreign currency transactions, the exchange rate for translation into local currency should be at the rate on which the business transaction occurs. Now, you have converted your open items from the old system into your new system as of Aug. 31. The customer has made the payment (in foreign currency) today. So it is appropriate from an accounting standpoint to take today's rate to convert the foreign curr amnt into INR. The resulting difference is your realized exchange rate difference. You need to book that difference to an exch. rate gain/loss account (that you need to configure in OB09).

Foreign currency valuation (new) for vendors and costumers open items

Dear friends,
Is there any option that when i run the foreign currency valuation program (fagl_fc_val) for vendors and costumers open line items not to generate the reverse posting? I have read in the sap library that the reverse posting is optional and the when you pay the invoice the system works the difference out between the valuation and the exchange rate of the payment, but i can not find it in customizing.
thanks in advance
marc

I also like to add that it is best to post reversal because normally the revaluation entry is posted on the last date of the month and the reversal entry is posted on the first day of the following month, which means that the following month will have a new entry on the last date independent of the entry made in the prior month.
The idea of posting the valuation entry is to value the customer and vendor open items which were posted (let us say 3 months ago in a foreign currency) with the latest exchange rate as of the end of the month. This way these payables and receivables stand corrected.
Is there any reason why you don't want to post the reversal entry?

Foreign Currency Revaluation of open items in ECC6

Hello,
while running the foreign currency revaluation of GL open items via FAGL_FC_VAL, I notice that open items on our VAT account are revaluated.
the account is flagged for balances in local currency only and open item management.
I am very suprised to see this account popping up in the revaluation. This was not the case in previous releases.
How can I prevent this,
kr
Nico

Hello,
I understand that you DO NOT want to revaluate VAT accounts (which make sense).
Check if those accounts are included on FCR customizing and remove them.
As an additional check exclude them from program's variant and they will not be selected nor revaluated.
My question is how the program revaluates posting on VAT accounts if they are open item managed? Revaluation of open items accounts should need a not open item account in order to post the postings.

Foreign Currency Translation at Year End - How SAP Works for P&L items?

Hi All,
I wanted to know "How SAP works on Foreign Currency Translation at year end" from Local Currency to Group Currency for P&L Items.
I know how SAP works for Balance sheet items but am really confused with when the translation was done for P&L Items.
Configuration:
We are on ECC 6.0 . Local Currency is CAD and we have 2nd Local Currency as "USD - Group Curr".
We have set up Valuation Method - 4
We have set up Valuation Area - 40
For Account Determination for Currency Translation, GL accounts (Loss, Gain and B/S Adj) were setup for the combination of Chart of Accounts, Val Area and Fin Stmt Ver.
Sales Account Balance
CAD (LC)        USD (2nd LC)
1000                   920
Using tcode "FAGL_FC_TRANS", we translated our P&L items.
Local Currency is CAD and Group Currency is USD.
CAD 1000 and USD 920 are cumulative balances over a period of time.
Since at the end of year CAD became stronger, exchange rate is 1.11 as an example
Sales Account Balance
CAD (LC)        USD (2nd LC)        Translated Value in USD
1000                   920                        900
System passed the following entry in USD:
Debit Balance Sheet Adj A/c 20
Credit Translation Gain / Loss A/c 20
Here are the questions:
1. How does over all translation work? - Should we get any Gain / Loss and have an effect on P&L when all accounts (P&L, B/S) are translated?
2. How can there be a gain entry when USD value has really fallen from 920 to 900 in the current case.
Thanks for your time.
Vijay

Hi,
I had this issue too. The entry was just opposite to what it should be. I just flipped the accounts in table FAGL_T030TR.
Example: 410000 is sales account which normally should have a credit balance. Here are some entries that were posted to sales in 03/2009 and I am running FAGL_FC_TRANS at the end of the month.
March 1, 2009 Cr. Sales CAD 1000- USD 900-
March 2, 2009 Cr. Sales CAD 500- USD 480-
During FC translation transaction, system takes the balance in the account for the period (if you execute it with 'Val. period balance only' checkbox checked) and not the cumulative balance. SAP recommends translating period balance only (and not cumulative balance) for P&L accounts. It sees a balance in LC (this again depends on the config. you have in OB22 - whether the indicator is 1 (TC as source currency) or 2 (LC as source currency for translation)) which is 1500, converts that at month end rate. After conversion, lets say the balance is 1400-.
In this case, we expect a credit entry on sales account
March 31, 2009 Cr. Sales CAD 0 USD 20-
But system was just posting the opposite. I then flipped the accounts in FC translation configuration. I know it is misleading. In that configuration, system says balance sheet adjustment account, but what you should actually give there is your gain/loss account. Our gain/loss a/c. falls in the same GL account range as the main account. For example, for 410000, it is 410999 and for 510000, it is 510999. We report accounts 410000 to 410999 in the same node in the FSV.
Pl. feel free to ask further questions about this. Pl. test in your system and correct me if my above reply is wrong.
Cheers!

Create items by vendor and customer on Foreign Currency Valuation

When we execute Foreign Currency Valuation, we would like to create items in a document by vendor and customer.
Can we handle it a 'Corp.group-vendors' flag(Evaluate Accounts According to Group Definition) ?
Can you help with this issue please?
Thanks,
Sato.Ishikawa

HI,
With the report SAPF100, you will be able to valuate foreign currencies
from customer and vendor accounts.
It is not possible to post a foreign currency valuation directly to a
vendor or customer account. This is only possible for g/l accounts.
You can refer to the following workarounds:
From the technical point of view you can use FB01 to post such a posting
You have to enter a exchange rate manually in the first screen. In this
case this exchange rate is used instead of the exhange rate of table
TCURR (transaction OB08).
You have to choose a exchange rate which transfer the amount in local
currency to 0,00 in foreign currency.Another possibility is to use
RFBIBL00 in transfer type direct input for FB01.An amount of 0 in
foreign currency should work.
The system is designed not to post documents with 0 amount in foreign
currency to vendors/customers.
