Forex valuation

Dear friends & experts,
I am new to the forum and appreciate that you guys can help me on the forex valuation issue.
I wonder whether there is a foreign currency valuation procedure (besides SAPF100) which can generate valuation postings for line item display.
I did the F.06 but didn't success.
Appreciate if u can advise me on what option to be clicks and what fields to be filled for transaction F.06.
Thank you.
-ZUKI-

Hi Zuki,
Following are the fields to be filled in F.06
1. Company code
2. Evaluation Key Date
3. Valuation Methods: SAP provides various valuation methods: BSK, EVR and KTO
4. Valuation in curr.type : 10 Or or valuation area SA
5. Check : Create Postings
6. Batch input session name - Code identifying the batch session that is created Example: FCV0620021
7. Document date Date the transaction occurred Example: 310702
8. Posting date - Date that the business transaction occurred Example: 310702
9. Posting period Fiscal month when the transaction posts to the General Ledger Example: 7
10. Reversal posting date Date when you want to post a reverse. Normally the 1st day of next month Example: 010802
11. Reverse post. period Posting period for reversal Example: 08
Now you need to select the accounts you want to valuate. Click <tab button> Selections .
1 Click Valuate vendor open items .
2.Click Valuate customer open items Button .
 You can select only particular vendor / customer accounts to be valuated. If you leave the selection fields empty (like in our example), all the accounts will be selected for valuation.
Click Execute Button to perform valuation. Note that the system does not create the postings immediately but creates a batch input session instead.
Press Back Button .
To post the valuation, you need to process the Batch Input Session that youve just created. You can open another SAP session.
From the main menu choose System  Services  Batch input  Sessions

Forex valuation in New gl

Dear All,
Can some one please update on the forex valuation in NEWGL scenario and specially the reversal at the beginning of the subsequent month.
Thanks and regards,
Gokul.

HI Tony,
The new Foreign currency valuation program. FAGL_FC_VALUATION uses the ledger group assigned to the valuation area to determine the ledger(s) from which balance is to be read for valuation. If the ledger group assigned to the valuation area contains only a single ledger, this ledger is used for the selection of the balances. If more than one ledger is contained in the ledger group assigned to the valuation area, each ledger is valuated individually
However, The postings for the valuation of balances are made using the ledger group that has the same name as the ledger being valuated. For example, if ledger group Z1 is assigned to the valuation area, which contains ledgers 0L and ledger L1, the balances of ledger 0L are valuated and the valuation program makes the postings using ledger group 0L and balances of ledger L1 are also valuated and the program makes postings with ledger group L1
In the above scenario, if ledger group L1 contain ledgers L1 and Z1, foreign currency valuation postings would be made to both the ledgers L1 and Z1 based on the balances in ledger L1
More details availble in the following SAP Note
983847 - Foreign Currency Valuation: Balances in NEW G/L
The above scenario works for multiple ledgers only in the case of GL accounts which are not open item managed.
For Open item managed GL accounts, the posting would be made to the ledger group assigned to the valuation area.
Warm regards,
Murukan Arunachalam

Forex valuation accounts

Hi All,
I m getting an error for maintaining the forex valuation accounts for one of the GL accounts. The solution for the same will be to maintain the accounts using transaction code OB09 in table T030H. However when I went through the transactions in the GL account, I noticed that all the transactions have document currency and local currency same. I m not able to understand then why am i getting this error. Does anyone have any clue on this?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Aman Goel

Hi,
You can go through GL, Vendor, Customer line item display and change the screen layout and include Effective exchange
rate coloumn so that you can see the rate applied for that particular transaction. Further, in periodic processing of
forex valuation through F.05 or FAGL_FC_VAL you see the effective rates and the relative loss or gain with respect to
your OB08 setting.

FOREX valuation issue

Hi,
I posted FOREX valuation for vendors open items at a wrong posting date. How can this be undone or rectified. Experts guide please..

Hi:
If you are on ECC 6..then go to FAGL_FC_VAL, pull the exact same selection variant with which you executed your original valuation and select the 'Reset Valuation' checkbox, specify a reason for reset and run the transaction. This will do the job. However if you are on a version before 6 then you can reset the valuation posted wrongly by creating another valuation procedure in OB59 and this time under valuation procedure, select reset n OB59..I hope this will help you.

FOREX Valuation for G/L Open Item is not permitted

Dear Gurus,
My client used SAP ECC5, when use tcode FAGL_FC_VAL for G/L Open item error comes with messege "E012-->Postings to G/L accounts with open item management are not permitted", But if I post that G/L Account using post manually by tcode FBB1 there is no problem, So what should i do for this problem ?
For valuation Vendor/Customer Open Item and G/L balance I have no found a problem.
What is configuration should be checked for G/L Open Item valuation?
Thanks
sayid

Hello Pankaj,
Is your adjustment account was defiined as OI management. if yes, then t is generally not permitted to use the O/I managed account as an djustment account. The adjustment account is the same as O/I
managed GL account, so the error message FAGL_POST_SERVICE012 is issued. This is justified because open items must be made valid for ALL ledgers in the client but FAGL_FC_TRANS posts ledger specific posting by having ledger group in the document header - Ledger Grp 0L.
The best solution is to assign non-O/I managed account as an adjustment account, and this is the 'standard' solution.Please also check note 884639.

Forex valuation picking up YTD amounts only

Hi Experts,
We have configured For ex valuation in our Dev system and it looks like only the amounts for the current year 2010 are being picked up for valuation for a G/L balance account. The same has been configured in Quality too and it is working fine there ie. balances from previous years are also being picked up and valuated.
The year end activities (eg.balance transfer) are not being done in Dev system whereas it is done in Quality. Could this be the reason for this discrepancy?
Any suggestions would be of help.
Thanks,
Leena

Clearing forex open item with INR receipt

Hi,
We have a scenario were original customer invoice is in foreign currency. However, the money remitted by the customer is directly credited in the bank, not in the same foreign currency, but in Indian currency. In this case, the system is able to clear if we manually enter the forex gain or loss. But this gain or loss is calculated with reference to the current exchange rate and not with exchange rate as at the invoice posting.
Any idea how this could be handled?
Thanks
Muru

Lawrence,
The issue came because the user was trying to clear a Forex open item with local currency. In F-28, he was entering the local currency amount as receipt. The rate at which the receipt is converted is different from the rate maintained for forex valuation (M rate).
If the receipt is posted in the original document currency, the complication is avoided. However, I would be interested to know if you are aware of some other way of handling this.
Thanks
Muru

Foreign Currency Valuation

Hi Guys,
I have posted a customer invoice today with a foreign currency.
So its an open item as it is still not paid.
Then i am running the Forex Valuation for the customer open items.
However the exchange rate has not changed between the two currencies EUR and USD.
When i am running the forex valuation for this customer open items, its not picking up any data.
Is it because there is no exchange rate deviation between when the document is posted and when the forex val is run.
Is it mandatory that there should be a diff in the exch rates after doc is posted?
Pls clarify.
thanks
srikanth.

Hi
Currency valuation is a period end activity. Generally for valuating we use closing exchange rate of that period. If this exchange rate is same as the rate on accounting date, then there is no Gain / Loss on valuation.

Forex Revaluation for customers and vendors

Hi,
I ran FAGL_FC_VAL for period end for forex valuation of customers and valuation. Following Entry is posted:
Unrealised Loss A/c... Dr
To Forex balancesheet adjustment A/c
Forex balancsheet adjustment A/c is normal GL account.
Now i want to see vendorwise and customerwise forex valuation. Let me know how to get this report.

Hi Deepak,
I feel very sorry to say that there is not report to display the foreign currency valuation for customers and vendors. But I think you could defined difference reconciliation account for customers and vendors, then defined a foreign
balancesheet adjustment A/c per reconciliation account in OBA1,then you could confirm the value in FS10K or FBL3N.
Hope this information are useful to you!

Foreign Currency Valuation postings to period 13?

Can FAGL_FC_VAL be posted in the special periods 13 - 16?

Hi,
You can post it in special periods........... but generally Foreign Exchange valuations is a month end process...... and you only have a maximum of 4 special periods in SAP......... so ideally it is suggested to post the Forex valuations every period end.
Generally Forex valuations is done basically for arriving to a true value in the balance sheet...... which would ideally gets reversed in the next month........ and if the payment is not made in the next month then they re-valuate the same.
Kind Regards

FX Valuation in TPM1 with Gross Amortization Procedure (2 FI accounts)

Dear Experts,
I have one question regarding the foreign exchange valuation in tpm1:
The Position Management Procedure include the Gross Amortization Procedure, where Premium/Discount is not included in Book Value. Therefore the premium/discount is posted as accrued/deferred account.
At the end I will have one asset account for the Nominal Value and a second asset account for the premium/discount.
My problem: I cannot split the FX Valuation in the 2 accounts. Do you have any idea?
Thank you in advance!
Andreas

Hi,
Was reading through this question and I understand that the question is answered, but just wanted to check on certain points.
In PMP, do we need to have two procedures for the same step (forex valuation) and will it actually work? I will check this.
Also if I understand the requirement correctly, you are managing premium/discounts through deferred revenue accounts. Hence when you do a forex valuation, you want the valuation amount to be split separately for position account and deferred revenue account? But in general is it the practice to separately valuate it.
When you do forex valuation, it will take into account the overall book value which is the purchase value plus the amortized amount. Valuation is performed for the new book value.
For the balance in local currency in the deferred revenue account, when you do the final repayment, a translation flow is generated based on the update type specified from the position outflows tab. This procedure can be managed in your current release itself.

Total Qty and Valuation is "0" for Items w/out Movement for the Prev Period

Hi MM Experts,
We encounter error message "Valuated stock becomes negative"when we try to post a goods issuance against a production order with posting date Jan 31, 2011 (our current period is Feb 2011). I checked the materials' stocks and there are enough stock for the issuance. I checked the material valuation in the material master and I found out that the Total Stock Qty and Total Stock Valuation for period 01 2011 is both "0". The Total Stock Qty and Valuation for periods Dec 2010 and Feb 2011 however have the same value. I also checked the stock movements from December to Feb and I found out that there were no movements for January (which means the quantity and value should be the same as end of Dec). I tried simulating the posting of goods issuance using Feb as the posting date and the system did not issue any error message.
Have anyone encountered the same issue? Is this standard to the system? We need to post the issuance using posting date Jan 31 and we would really appreciate any inputs/ help.
Thanks and regards,
She

Hi Raj,
We have made the balance as Zero Now.
The point here earlier ie when the Account was not having Open item status, system has calculated Foreign currency valuation based on currency and not on Line Item.
Where as now it is calculating based on line item(which is Open item).
The point is expectation is system to calcuatate forex valuation for future items ie items posted after Open item activation , where as currenty When the account is Zero system is calculating Forex difference.
regards
N.Kumar
