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.

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>

  • Foreign Exchange rate for INR to EURO

    Hello,
    I want to maintain Exchange rate for INR to EURO.
    What exchange rate type "m", "EURX" or "EURX" is relevant for the conversion of INR to EURO.
    How to maintain direct & indirect rate for the same ? I understand that system is not accepting rates maintained in "Direct Quote" coloumn.
    Thanks & Rgds
    Dwijendra

    Dear Venkatesh,
    For exchange rate from INR to EURO, system will not take rates maintained under exchange rate type "m". It only considers exchange rate type "EURX".
    Hope I am clear.

  • AP- Why exchange rate type between Post invoice and Post payment is differe

    AP- Why exchange rate type between Post invoice and Post payment is different ?
    Hello,
    I have question
    when post AP invoice , document type KR
    document date = 11.12.2009
    posting date = 31.12.2009
    entry date = 05.01.2010
    this document using exchange rate type B (standard translation at bank selling rate) on 31.12.2009 (use posting date )
    but when post payment for above document,document type ZP
    document date = 25.06.2010
    posting date = 25.06.2010
    entry date = 24.06.2010
    this document using exchange rate type M (standard translation at average rate) on 23.06.2010
    please answer
    why do post invoice and post payment use different exchange rate type?
    and why at payment donot use posting date for get exchange rate ?

    Nanas,
    Sorry if im not  being clear...
    My point is: the difference rates customization for payments is done at FBZP.
    At Paying Company Codes, you have 4 flags for exchange rates differentes.
    At Control Data look:
    *Do not Post any Exchange Rate Differences:
    If the indicator is not set, the difference between the exchange rate at the time of posting and the exchange rate at the time of payment is determined for items which are posted in foreign currency. The payment program uses the translation rate in the currency table in the system for this purpose.
    *No Exchange Rate Differences for Partial Payments:
    Has the effect that the payment program for partial payments (requests for payment using transaction F-59) does not post exchange rate differences.
    *Processing of Bill of Exchange Payments:
    *Separate Payment for each Payment Reference

  • Exchange rate type P is picking in contract master while ist should take M

    exchange rate is maintained for M and P in OB08, we want to get the exchange rate from exchange rate type M to contract master. but it is picking from Exchange rate type P. where as echange rate 'M' maintained as a current yaer( 2011) . but exchange rate P maintained of 2010 ( previous yer). but still its a taking exchange rate type P. we want to take it From M.
    Please guide us........facing this issue for so many days....
    Thanks in advance....

    Hello,
    By default exchange rate type M will be used unless another exchange rate type for e.g. P is specified as Alternate exchange rate type. Then translation rate taged to exchange rate type P will be used.
    Check "Alt. ERT"  (Alternate exchange rate type) in OBBS, the suggestion is if exchange rate type M is desired then the "Alt. ERT" input should be empty on the row where exchange rate type 'M' and the corresponding currency pair for e.g. USD:GBP (assuming USD is local currency and GBP is foreign currency) is maintained.

  • Customized Exchange rate type in FICO

    Hello Experts,

    Please advise.
    Regards,

    hi
    the standard exchange rate in fi are
    g..bank buying(bank is buying....exports)
    b...bank selling (bank is selling ..imports)
    m...average
    1.for any foreign exchange traslation we first have to define the above exchage rate in ob07
    2.we have to give the traslation ratios (obbs)
    3.we have to give the exchage rates (ob08)
    answer to u r question..
    1st there should be a system defined  exchage rates types for the currency u r conversion.
    example
    usd to inr ...for this coversion u should define for g..b..m.
    then after that u can use u r own user defined variables...(only after the sytem defined is declared.
    if why is u r anwer
    system takes the standard rate m if there is no conversion type found in the document types.

  • Alternate Exchange Rate Type Not Picked while converting from Document Currency to Group Currency

    Hello Gurus,
    We have setup an alternate Exchange Rate type MNB for rate M for the postings happening in Hungary. Local currency is HUF. Group currency is USD.
    If the document currency is, lets say, EUR, latest MNB rate is correctly picked up (EUR to HUF) and postings are correctly converted into local currency (HUF).
    Although, for the same document, when a group currency is being calculated (EUR to USD), exchange rate type M is being picked up. Same happens if  document currency is HUF. Even then, the conversion is based on exchange rate type M.
    Is this a normal SAP behavior? How to prevent/correct this? This is also throwing off balances when we check in FAGLB03 or BSEG values in local and group currencies. In OB22, we have local currency1 and local currency 2 setup with exchange rate type M and we may not want to make any changes there as it is setup at global level.
    Do we need to run any valuations after the fact? if so, how?
    Thank you for your inputs in advance.
    Regards,
    Sagar

    Hi,
    You mentioned that "in OB22, we have local currency1 and local currency 2 setup with exchange rate type M". Then, I'm wondering how MNB is picked up for the first local curr. conversion to HUF? It should be 'M' instead. There must be some settings in your instance for such behavior. Can you check that?
    Actually, Group Curr. conversion happens with the rate defined for 2nd Loc.Curr.in OB22 which is 'M' in your case. Therefore, all the transactions are converted with M instead of MNB.
    Since you can't change OB22 per global co.policy, the exch.rate defined in OBA7 will overrule OB22. However, you've to make sure it's set up for all doc.types which are affected and posted in different curr. than HUF.
    As a workaround, another thought would be to maintain the same conversion rate for both exch.rate types MNB & M, for eg. HUF > USD rate is the same both exch.rate type MNB & M. This way, you ensure all transactions are posted with correct exch.rate irrespective of whatever rate type is used.
    From business, & global org. perspective, I'm sure they are sending the 'M' exch.rates to all their sister concerns monthly, so they would like to consolidate results as per standard rate in their system. Then, why ,as a local company, would you like to fiddle with standard process? It's a management decision, please run them through again before going ahead.
    Thanks,

  • Custom Exchange Rate Type for Purchase Order

    Hi
    Our Financial Team doesn't want to change the Exchange Rates on a daily basis, but for place purchase orders with our overseas vendors we need the daily spot rate loaded in the system. 
    Is there way to configure a different exchange Rate type ?  and use this Exchange Rate Type for Purchase Order to use instead of Default type "M"?
    Thanks...

    Found a soluntion ...
    I have coded userexit EXIT_SAPLMEKO_001 component LMEKO001, to fill in Exchange Rate type in the Communication Structure "e_komk-kurst".
    Update Exchange Rate Type "ZCUS" under SPRO and updated exchanges in TCURR table for this type.  Then, everything else works like a charm.

  • CKUC - Exchange Rate Type P

    Dear All,
    We are using CKUC Multilevel Unit Costing  for doing costing simulation.
    It is giving error "There is no exchange rate for exchange rate type P on 03.01.2012: USD  -> INR".
    It is understood that Exchange rate 'P' is not maintained in OB08.
    But I would like to know under what instance system will try to use exchange rate type 'P'?
    Regards
    Ratna Palit

    Dear All,
    After further testing and analysis done , it is observed that there are material components in multi leve lunit costing BOM which do not have info record maintained in production system.
    The valuation variant for multi level unit costing contains following sequence of priority for picking up material rate.
    Priority Strategy Sequence
    1. Price from Purchasing Info Record
    2. Moving Average Price
    3. Planned Price 1
    4. Standard Price
    Sub-Strategy Sequence with Purchasing Info Record Valuation -
    Priority Strategy Sequence
    1. Net Purchase Order Price
    2. Net Quotation Price
    Hence as system is not finding info record for above materials,
    a.  it is checking the sub sequence strategy for net purchase order price.
    b.  simultaneously for purchase order scenario - it is also checking for Exchange Rate type 'P'.
    In this case there is neither exchange rate type 'P' maintained nor purchase order is maintained in production server.
    Hence system is giving both errors "for Exchange rate type 'P' " and "for Valid Source of Supply".
    In past whenever unit costing was run successfully in production server, info record was also available for applicable materials in BOM. Hence system did not give any error.
    Thanks & Regards
    Ratna
    If  our priority sub sequence remains as Net purchase order price, exchange rate type "P" has to be maintained.

  • Determining Exchange Rate type

    Hi
    For a export customer we have made a copy of exchange rate type M and named it as E
    In Ob08 the direct and indirect rate for E has been maintained and in customer master and accounting document configuration too E has been maintained
    During generation of accounting document the rate determined by the system is not of E but of M
    The validity of E is greater than that of M but still system  is determining  rate as per entry maintained for M
    Can anyone please suggest what should be done

  • Exchange Rate Types Used In What Transactions

    Hi Experts!
    I was inquiring on if there is a way to see all exchange rate types ("M" and alternative exchange rate types), with respects to where they are used, posted, and most importantly, what all transactions use them.  The exchange rate types we use are M (system), Z1 (custom), and 0011 (custom).  Even if there is a SAP note, on this, that would be helpful too.  Urgent!  Thank you for your time!
    WC

    Hi Will,
    Execute transaction code <b>OB07</b> to see all the exchange rate types within your system.
    The following should help you to understand where they are used and which transactions used them.
    In <b>planning</b>, exchange rate types are used to specify exchange rates used for different purposes at the same time in the system. Existing entries may not be deleted.
    When exchange rate conversions take place between many different currencies, using a reference currency can simplify maintenance of exchange rates. For the exchange rate types concerned, you then only have to specify the exchange rates in relationship to the reference currency for all currencies. The SAP R/3 System then carries out all exchange rate conversions in two steps, using the reference currency.
    As well as a <b>buying rate</b> "<b>G</b>", you can also maintain a <b>selling rate</b> "<b>B</b>".
    The buying rate is that under which the average rate "<b>M</b>" is recorded.
    When maintaining a buying rate, enter the appropriate currency type for the average rate. This reduces the amount of work required in the conversion table.
    The selling rate is that under which the average selling rate is recorded.
    The user need only maintain the conversions for the average rate. The conversion occurs by determining the average rate and then adding the difference between the rates to this rate.
    If an entry for a currency conversion is missing, the indicator Invert ensures that the reversed currency relationship, should one exist, is available for the conversion.
    <u><b>Standard settings</b></u>
    The standard R/3 System includes exchange rate type <b>P</b> (standard translation for cost center accounting).
    <u><b>Note</b></u>
    When you create a controlling area, the SAP R/3 System creates version 000 automatically for 5 years. Rate type <b>P</b> is defaulted.
    The R/3 System uses rate type <b>M</b> for currency conversion during postings and clearings of documents.
    <u><b>Recommendation</b></u>
    Before creating your own exchange rate types, check those offered by SAP and use them if appropriate.
    I hope the above helps.
    Do not forget to award the points please.
    Regards,
    Jacob

  • KP98 - Differences because of exchange rate types

    Hello,
    I am using KP98 transaction to copy actual data to plan data.
    I take CO area currency for example and the system copy the amount correctly in my CO area currency, but in object currency there is a difference because of the exchange rate types ( actual and budget exchange rate types are different)
    Is it possible to copy the same amount in the two currencies?
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    during copying the data in CO area currency are converted into local currency based on the ex.rate settings in the CO version definition, the local curr. data is not really copied.
    If you have an ex. rate that is changed every period it should be possible to copy the first period (with the correct ex.rate settings in CO version definition), change the ex.rate setting, copy the next period, change the ex. rate setting again, copy again,...
    Best regards, Christian

  • Payment Program and Spot Exchange Rate Type

    Hi Everyone,
    When performing wire transfers in foreign currency, my company wants to be able to have the payment program, F110, be able to convert the payment to the vendor based on the bank's spot rate at that moment in time.  I found that we can use exchange rate type "G", update the rate within OB08 prior to running F110, input the exchange rate type "G" within the Parameter section within "Exchange rate type" and process the payment program as normal. 
    My question is this:  We have a few separate companies that would use this feature with the possibility of receiving different rates from their respective banks.  How would this work if 2 companies had 2 separate exchange rates for the same conversion on the same day?  I found that once you enter in an exchange rate for a conversion, you are stuck with that rate for that particular day, so the amount can not be over written with another rate to be used by the second company code.  Is there a way around this or is there a different way to accomplish the converting of currencies at the payment program?
    Thanks.
    Pete
    Edited by: Peter Zaborowski on Sep 26, 2008 2:35 PM

    Hi Peter
    Use two different exchange rate type for bank1 and bank1. Upload the exchange rate into the system. Select house bank and specified rate type during the payment run.

  • Needs Diff. Exchange rates type for sales trans and Purc Trans

    Hi Gurus,
    My requirement is that for a same foreign currency i need to pick two different rates one for purchase related activites and another for sales related activites. is that possible in standard SAP.
    Example of my scenario:
    My company code currency is INR.
    on 10.09.2007 if i make purchase of goods in USD system picks the rate i maintain for usd from the exchange rate type "M".
    On the same day if i make any sales in USD system is picking it again from the same exchange rate type "M', but i want to pick it from exchange rate type "G".
    Kindly Advice me what to be done.
    Thanks and Regards
    Karthik

    Hi,
    For SD related transactions, you can maintain the exchange rate in Customer Master - Sales Area Data. In Sales Tab you can maintain "Exchange Rate Type" for transactions related to that Customer.
    Probably, for MM you can continue with the standard M.
    Thanks

  • Exchange rate type M  not  picked in  FB60  foreign currency entry

    Hi
    My  local  currency is   USD.  I   have  defined  exchange rate  for   ' USD  and  EUR   '    for  exchange     type  M and  type  EURX.  
    In  FB60,  system picks  the  exchange rate  defined  for  exc. type EURX,   but   I   want it to  pick  exch. type M.

    Pl  advise
    Thanks
    kamala

    I am thinking that most likely you have specified EURX as Alt. ERT (alternate exchange rate type) for exchange rate type M for the currency pair USD:EUR in IMG node 'Define Translation Ratios for Currency Translation" (T Code OBBS).  Remove it and retest FB60; it should pick the M rate.

  • Different Exchange Rate Type for Vendors and Customers Invoices

    Dear Friends,
    We have configured different exchange rate types for Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable thru T Code OB07. What are the additional Config steps required to ensure that the respective buying and selling rates will apply to Accounts Payables and Receivables. We do not want to stipulate the exchange rate types in Document Types as this special exchange rates are applicable only for one of the Company Codes.
    Would appreciate your help in this regard.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    Then you can use a different document type for those company codes and can default the exchange rate type there.
    OR,
    The alternative wya is to use the substitution in OBBH/ GGB1 for those company codes with exit programming.
