Foreign Exchange difference posted to price difference account at MIGO

Hi,
We have a problem regarding posting foreign exchange rate difference at the time of GR.
We are costing materials at the beginning of year, and purchases made during the year as per PIR will result in legitimate price difference which is posted to price difference account.  Thatu2019s working alright.
Now, due to new business requirement, we maintained PIR in MXN (Mexican peso), & standard cost is converted in local currency USD as per exch. rate maintained in OB08.
Now, when we do GR, the difference of foreign exchange at the time of Std. cost & GR date is posted to Price difference account instead of foreign exchange account.  For eg. Std .cost of material A is 1000 MXN, and GR cost of material X is also 1000 MXN, however corresponding USD is different because of different foreign exchange rate.
Will appreciate if someone can suggest on how can we post it to exch.rate diff.account instead of price diff. acct. ?
Thanks,
Nirav

Hi,
Thanks for your replies.
We have already maitained exch.rate GL OBYC-KDM, which is successfully posted with the exch.rate diff.arising out of GR & IV at the time of IV.
I'm talking about price difference in Std. cost & GR value because of exch.rate diff.
For example, Std cost for Material A is 1000 MXN converted to $100 with exch.rate of 10. Now, GR happens with 1000 MXN converted to $200 with prevailing exch.rate of 5. Please note that std. cost and GR is the same price 1000 MXN, but USD amount is changed resulting $100 gets posted to PRICE DIFFERENCE Account, whereas we want to post it to FOREIGN Exch. diff.A/c becuase it's arising out of exch,rate difference.
Please let me know if it makes sense.
Thanks,
Nirav

  • PRD-Auto Post price differences to different price difference accounts

    Dear all,
    As I know, in Account Automatic Posting, the transaction key  PRD is for Cost price Difference.
    If I want to post price differences to different price difference accounts in the case of goods receipts for different cost in purchase orders, How can I configure it?
    Example, in PO, there is 2 costs: Freight (F) and Insurance(I) are key in as Condition Type.
    I would like to post price difference from F to account XXX, and  price difference from I to account YYY.
    Can I configure like this?
    Thank you very much for your support!

    Hello,
    What is price difference.
    Price differences arise for materials valuated at standard price in the case of all movements and invoices with a value that differs from the standard price. Examples: goods receipts against purchase orders (if the PO price differs from the standard pricedardpreis), goods issues in respect of which an external amount is entered, invoices (if the invoice price differs from the PO price and the standard price).
    Price difference in genereal will not trigger for the materials with price control V ( Moving average price) but however
    Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods movements in the negative range, the moving average price is not changed. Instead, any price differences arising are posted to a price difference account
    For you example, you have you are having PO with Freight (F) and Insurance(I), these are called pallned delivery costs, not Price difference,
    so create two different condition type for Freight and insurance and assign two different G/L accounts for these condition types in account determination.
    While posting system will hit perticular G/L acconut.

  • Good Receipt is posted to price variance account instead of Inventory account

    Dear All,
    My client have a PO with three materials. All those materials have been assigned to same valuation class. Client has posted GR for this PO and one material has been recorded a misbehavior when selecting the accounts. That mean, it has been ignored the inventory account and instead value has been posted to price variance account. So the debit entry in price variance and credit entry in GR/IR.
    But other two material has the automatic posting to correct account as Debit to Inventory and Credit to GR/IR.
    Could you pls help me to find the reason for this.

  • While posting MIRO price difference account is not determimg for price vari

    Hi Sapients,
    Please solve the production issue which we have faced yesterday while doing month end closing
    In one P.O 4 items are there,User has posted entries in below sequence
    Material type is TRADING GOODS
    1)first MIRO with QTY 10 @100$ each,Later
    2)MIGO has done with QTY 10 @100$
    Raw Material account -
    1000$
    to GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
    1000$
    2)User has reverse the MIRO transaction with QTY 10 @ 100$ each.(with refer to step1)
    3)Finally he post MIRO with QTY 10 @ 90$ each, so here ther is no qty variance has come only price variance has come, so when posting the difference is not going to price difference and the entry is paasing like this
    GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
    900$
    TO Vendor 900$
    If u see in step 2 GR/IR having 1000$, but in step 3 while MIRO posting GR/IR as 900$ so for the remaing balance 100$ not going to price variance .I Belive the entry in step will be like this
    GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
    1000$
    TO Vendor 900$
    TO Price difference 100$.
    Kindly give solution why it is not going to price difference it was happening only for item 2 & 3 only for 40 iem it is posting correctly to price difference account.Please advice me why system behavig differently for each item.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Padmasri,
    Thanks for your explanation. Ok. if the price is maintained in S, does that mean the price difference would get posted only to PRD. In other words, if price indicator is V, is that the only time when the price difference gets posted to stock account. In case if there is no sufficient stock or if there is negative stock at that time, that's when the amount would get posted to stock loss or gain account. Please suggest if I've understood the concept right.
    Hi,
    The PRD will trigger when the standard price maintained in the material mater record is different from the price in MIGO . The other chance is the material is maintained with MAP and MIRO done before GR ,The value of the quntity (not available in stock )
    will get posted to PRD. I hope this will resolve your issue. Thanking you
    You had suggested: The other chance is the material is maintained with MAP and MIRO done before GR ,The value of the quntity (not available in stock ) will get posted to PRD. I hope this will resolve your issue.
    You are right: I forgot to mention that the price indicator is V. The other point is we purchase the materials from an internal vendor, as and when the materials are dispatched from the main storehouse in Sri Lanka, there is an advice that is created in the system and that is interfaced and parked in the system. However, normally until the GR is done IV will not happen. But there could be a chance, as the advice gets created within 24 hours. However the material to reach the godown in our warehouse will take more than 24 hours as the goods have to be shipped from SL, so IV is possible before GR.

  • Entry is posted to price difference account  if IR is processed before GR

    Hi Experts,
    The user is facing the following issue " whenever the Invoice Receipt is recorded before the Goods Receipt, the total amount is booked on price difference account. This is in case of inter company transactions.
    Please share your thoughts
    Warm regards,

    Hi
    Please, see SAP Note 308008 - FAQ: Posting logic: GR/IR clearing account,
    It says in question 1.
    "Remark: Invoice receipt before goods receipt
    If no goods receipt has occurred yet, the entire invoice value is posted to
    the GR/IR clearing account.
    GR/IR clearing value = GR value/GR quantity * IR quantity."
    I hope this helps you

  • GR posted to Price Variance account

    Hi Experts,
    I have a material whose price control indicator is "V", Moving price is $1, Total Stock is zero, Price Unit is 1, Standard price is 1, Total value is zero in material master.
    I have created standard PO with two line items.
    Line 10 is for the quantity of 1 PC at the rate of $100 per PC.
    Line 20 is for the quantity of 1 PC at the rate of $100 per PC. Additionally line 20 is account assigned Q "Proj. make-to-order". No other differences.
    I have posted GR for line 10. Accounting details are Stock account $100 and GR/IR clearing account $100.
    I have posted GR for line 20. Accounting details are Stock account $1, GR/IR clearing account $100 and Price variance account $99.
    Any guess why the system posted line 20 in price variance account?
    Thanks,
    Ranjith

    Hi,
    I have a material whose price control indicator is "V", Moving price is $1, Total Stock is zero, Price Unit is 1, Standard price is 1, Total value is zero in material master.
    its indicate that you have two material code price control V and S but situation is that both material don't have stock and price is same 1$
    Now when you do MIG) for second material which has price control S and Po  price is 100$
    means you have price difference of 99$ ( po price -Material price)
    so it will price difference account and its SAP standard
    check following sap link also with example

  • Some amounts was posted to Price Diff Account even tho there was no price d

    Hi Experts,
    Users have a few AP Invoice which they have some typo, thus they canceled it by copying the whole invoice to AP Credit Note (w/o changing anything).
    But when they try to cancel it, it says u201CGL Account is missingu201D.
    After I try to search high and low for this GL Account, I couldnu2019t find anything. Thus I asked the users to u201CRight click > Duplicateu201D the rows in the AP Credit Note (delete the original), and then I was able to add it successfully OK.
    But after the AP Credit Note is added, we checked back the JE posted by system, we realized some amount was posted to the u201CPrice Difference Accountu201D (which is not correct, because there was no price differences between the invoice and cn at all).
    Have you experienced smth like this before?
    Warmest Regards,
    Chinho

    Hi Chin,
    The target Document uses the same G/L accounts than the Base Document, and maybe the G/L account was entered in the Account Determination after the Invoice was added.

  • 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.
    Cheers,

  • Exchange rate difference posting in parallel currencies

    Hello experts,,
    We are on ECC 6.
    When we enter an invoice with MIRO and the current exchange rate differs from that in the PO, the exchange rate differences in local currency and in parallel currency (group currency) post to different accounts.
    Is this a standard feature / behavior? If so, where can i find the settings.
    Shouldn't the postings in all currencies (except doc currency), in the event of exchange rate difference post to the same account?
    The material ledger is not active.
    We have maintained 3 different currencies.
    Example to illustrate -
    DC = JPY
    LC = SGD
    GC = USD
    PO for asset.
    PO value = 10000 JPY
    Ex rate not fixed in the PO.
    Ex rate at PO -
    100 JPY = 1.6 SGD
    100 JPY =  0.85 USD
    Ex Rate at IR
    100 JPY = 1.7 SGD
    100 JPY =  0.9 USD
    When IR is entered,
    The exchange rate difference of 10 SGD (@ 0.1 per 100 JPY) is posted to the asset. No posting in USD (though there is a balance of 5 USD).
    At clearing (Transaction FB1S - GL account clearing) the exchange rate difference (in GC only, because no balance in LC) of 5 USD (@ 0.05 per 100 JPY) is posted to the Exch. rate difference GL acct.
    Thanks in advance for your advice/solution.

    Hi Ganesh
    Thanks for valuable advice, but in our case when i double click PRD, there is only one account is mapped in our chart of accounts, But there is no field for Valuation class, from Account field and to account field,
    only one field is there by nme Account, where in Price difference account is maintained.
    I don't have the option of linking Valuation class with GL Accounts of RM & Semi Finished Materials.
    How can make those fields to be shown in that Screen.
    If  i check for other chart of accounts, it is showing 3 fields
    such as Valuation class, from account no & to account no.
    but for our chart of account only one filed "account" is displayed in the screen.
    Please help me out.

  • Price Difference and Revaluation Accounts

    Hi gurus,
    Please tell me that, when system will hit Price Difference Accounts and Revaluation Accounts???
    Thank YOu

    Hi Gverma
    Please note that price difference would happen on the following
    1) If there is a difference between your PO and Invoice price, because GR/IR posting would always happen on PO price only, when you do the invoice verification and there is a differnce, system would post to the price difference to the extent of stock cosnumed ( if you have stock then system would post to inventory account)
    2) regarding revlauation account, when there is difference in your Standard cost estimate with previous month, system posts the difference between current SCE and previous month SCE on the stock.
    3) I am not sure, when you do a material to material transfer also system may post to price difference.

  • Price difference posting at the time of IR based on GR

    Hi,
    I had a PO for 10 pieces @ 10, GR for 10 pieces @10, but i got a invoice from vendor for 10 piece @12.
    so what can be the possible entries at the time of IR for Price difference; like, it should be posted to material account / it should post to price difference account. How can we configure the same? is price control indicator do play any roll here?
    Please try to give as much as information as you can.
    Thanks !

    Hi
    While posting invoice through MIRO, system takes into acccount either Stock or Price differences. To understand more.....
    If the stock is available, then the system transfer that amount to inventory. if the stock is not avaiable system transfers that amount to price differences account.
    If the stock is partly available, then system generates 4 line items. while doing invoice in the moving Avg price(V)
    GR/IR Account               DR   
    Inventory acccount        DR (In Case of Price increase due to escalation clause)
    Price diff. account          DR (In Case of Price increase due to escalation clause)
              To Vendor account   
              To  Inventory acccount        DR (In Case of Price decrease due to escalation clause)
              To  Price diff. account          DR (In Case of Price decrease due to escalation clause)
    In the above entry only one will be applicable regarding diffrences posting either price decrease or price increase.In the case of Oil (HSD)these fluctuations are very common.

  • Distributing Price Differences posted with  MIRO to production orders

    Dear guru ,
    I know DUV that distribute consumption differences from a physical inventory to production orders.
    After the production order consumptions (mvt. Type 261) for these materials we posted the prices differences with MIRO between the purchase order price and the invoice.
    Does exist a tool like DUV (or other) in order to distribute these differences in price to the production orders that have consumed these materials ?
    Thanks in advance

    To me it looks like the material ledger is the standard tool for doing what you want to do (although it doesn't actually post price differences from purchases to production order but rather distributes them to the receiving materials on the level of the actual price calculation)
