Incorrect currency rate for LC2 Amount

Experts,
I am experiencing a scenario where the currency rate for LC2 does not correspond to the one assigned in exchange rate table (TCURR) and would need your advise.
The following data is maintained in transaction OB22:
LC= Company code currency
Local Currency2 = USD (Group currency - type 30)
Local Currency 3= EUR (Index based currency u2013 type 50)
Exchange rate type for LC, LC2 and LC3 currencies= M
Source currency for LC, LC2 and LC3 currencies = 1 "Translation taking transaction currency as basis"
TrsDte typ for LC, LC2 currency and LC3 = 3 "Translation date"
There is no reference currency involved. Calculation with inverted currency is allowed
Exchange rates are maintained for exchange rate type M and valid until 31.01.2011.
SEK=> GBP
USD=> GBP
EUR =>GBP
Posting date, Document date and Translation date for the posted document are all 28.01.2011.
For LC and LC3 currency conversion is correct i.e. it picks rate for exchange rate type M from TCURR, but for LC2 (Group currency) system chooses a different exchange rate that I cannot derive
I can add that the document is a MIRO posting, but the currency in PO/MIRO is equal to the one for Exchange rate type M in TCURR for SEK=> GBP, which is correct. I have also checked the assignment of currency type to material ledger type and it is set to use currency types from FI and to correspond to the currency types from CO.
Can someone please explain to me how and why SAP has come to calculate an exchange rate for my LC2 amount that differs from what it should be considering settings in OB22 and rates in TCURR?
All tips are welcome!
Kind regards,
Linda

Srikanth,
Yes, exactly it is the rate upon 28.01.2011that should be relevant for the actual document.
Exchange rate has not entered manually in document header by interface nor by user. Interface only feed document amount and currency i.e. no rates.
Standard quotation in table TCURN for GBP=>USD is:"1" Direct quotation valid from 01.01.1800
Standard quotation in table TCURN for "Blank"=>GBP is:"2" Indirect quotation valid from 01.01.1800
Translation ratio for currency pair GBP => USD for exch rate type M is 1:1, valid from 01.01.1800, alt ERT=blank.
Translation ratio for currency pair USD=> GBP for exch rate type M is 1:1, valid from 01.01.1800, alt ERT=blank.
Translation ratio for currency pair USD=> GBP for exch rate type M is 1:1, valid from 31.10.2010, alt ERT=blank.
Maintained exchange rate valid for the period 31.12.2010 - 30.01.2011 for exchange rate type M is 1 USD= 0.64114 GBP
Amounts in document are
Doc. Curr. Amount= 187.44 GBP
LC2 Amount= 281.16 USD
Rate used for LC2 Amount in document equals 1 USD = 0.6667 GBP
Correct LC2 Amount with rate 1 USD= 0.64114 GBP should be 292,35 USD.
Kind regards,
Linda

How to get historical currency rate for second group currency transactions in Fixed Assets

Hello,
My client had MXN (Mexico Currency) as a legal currency and when the company code was implemented (went live) group currency was not implemented. After 3 years this company code implemented second local currency as USD and is now a USD functional Company. When Fixed assets movements such as depreciation, retirement etc are posted; the postings in local currency is fine but postings in group currency is not fine the reason is the exchange rate for group currency must be 'historical rate" but instead of that the entries are being posted in "current rate". To rectify this issue we need to set the exchange rate as the historical rate. Now my question is where/how can I get the historical rate (rate when asset was acquired/purchased). When the assets were acquired the amount was in MXN and there was no maintenance of USD exchange rate as there was no second local currency so then how can I get the historical exchange rate for USD. Most of the assets were acquired/purchased before 5-10 years then how can I find the USD exchange rate for those periods.
Thanks,
Rinki

It is necessary yo have a different rate type for average. The month-end rate type cannot be used.
The M-rate type is typically the month-end rate.

Currency Symbol for each amount

Hello People,
I have to include currency symbol infront of each amount in my web dynpro application display.
Example, there is an amount in USD, currency symbol for USD must be published there and
if there is an amount in EUR, currency symbol for EUR must be published there and so on...
Can someone help to know me how can I do that?
Thanks,
Megha

Hi Megha,
If you are going to store the symbols as graphic/icons I would store them in the mimes folder and then reference the the mime name in your custom table. So two fields in your table, currency and mime name.
I think you might find that if using a Unicode system that you can just type the symbol into the table - e.g. $ £ ₧ u20AC rather than having to use any graphics. I suppose it depends on how many symbols you need.
Again - I'm not aware of anything SAP standard that does this.
Good luck,
Chris

Incorrect exchange rate for Actual cost documents

Dear all experts,
I have an actual cost documents which was created on 02.10.2006,it should be taking the value date for currency exchange as 01.09.2006,but it is taking 01.
04.2006 hence it resulting in picking wrong exchange rate.Any solution to solve it and what is the cause of this issue? Thank You

hie, the currency is set in the table TCURR. the time rederence ? sorry,I am very new to this.the user just told me to that the currency for actual cost taken wrongly,all i managed to check is tat the value date for currency translation for tat particular actual cost document is 01.04.2006,tat's y it took the wrong exchange rate. And i guess the exchange rate is already updated in BW.

Currency Conversion for historical Amount

Hello Experts,
Can some one help me to find a solution for my reporting requirement.
As part of GL reporting, I have a report which shows accumulated balance for given fiscal year/period. If the currency is in USD,I have no issues. When the currency is in non USD(Ex: EUR) I need to convert it into USD at BW side.
Here is the example:
User Enters: Fiscal Year/Period : 2007003
Accumulated Balance for particular GL account might be 300 EUR.
But actual posting might be happened in 2006012.
While converting it to USD it should take the 2006012 exchage rate from TCURR and convert it.
I have created a RRC1 object and used it in Query but it is using 2007003 exchange rate.
Please help me to solve this problem.
Thanks,
Bobby

Hi,
make your currency conversion type time dependent that is the the exchange rates should be picked based on the date when the G/L account was posted.
Go to transaction RRC1 chose your exchange rate type and in the time ref. tab give key date as the posting date it will pick the exchange rate as the date when the doc was posted.
Hope it clears
Thanks

Rates for monthly currency valuation (FAGL_FC_VAL)

Hi, Experts
I would like to try to use different foreign currency rate for B/S accounts and P/L accounts when I run the FAGL_FC_VAL.
Is it possible or OK to set different currency rate for the accounts? ( At the point of technical view and business requirement view)
If it is OK and possible, could you tell me what kind of setting do I need to to do?
Regards,

HI,
in FAGL_FC_VAL, in the view "G/L balances" you can flag "Valuate P&L accounts".
That means in the first valuation run take your valuation area for P&L accounts and valuate them using this flag.
In the second valuation run take your valuation area for BS accounts and valuate them without using this flag.
Result: P&L accounts are valuated with one valuation area, BS accounts with the other.
You can also select the account numbers to be valuated in this screen.
The account assignment for FAGL_FC_VAL is done using T-Code OB09. There it is defined which accounts are used to post the valuation difference based on FAGL_FC_VAL.
This can differ for each chart of accounts / account number / currency / currency type.
Try first in test client, good luck!
Best regards, Christian

Vendor Invoice w/ different exchange rate on taxable amount and tax amount

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with regarding the Vendor Invoice with Foreign Currency. Normally we use JPY as our base currency and system exchange rate for out Vendor Invoices. But there was an audit issue pointing out that the Original Vendor Invoice is not tallied with the SAP Invoice as the tax amount is not the same. The problem is the Original Invoice has the Vendor Exchange Rate and it is not the same with the system rate that we use. Auditor tells us that we should use the Vendor Exchange Rate for Tax Amount and use the System Exchange Rate for the Taxable Amount. Is this possible? Can we use 2 Exchange Rates in a single Invoice Document one for the taxable amount and one for the tax amount? How can we possibly do this? Or any workaround?
Thanks a lot for the information!

I think its a bit misleading...The requirement is to post an Invoice with a base taxable amount of Exchange Rate A and a tax amount of Exchange Rate B. The Base Currency is JPY and the System Currency is SGD. So the Report S_ALR_87012357 should see the amount in SGD there. The Issue is caused by the different exchange rate on the tax amount submitted by the Vendor Invoice.
Example: Vendor Invoice Amount: 926,413.00 JPY, then we created PO to Invoice with Base Currency JPYalso amounted 926,413.00 JPY. However, in the Vendor Invoice Amount, the Tax Chargeable is 923.00 SGD (based on their exchange rate 65.66 JPY per SGD). But our Exchange Rate (System Rate) is 63.49 JPY per SGD. How can we reflect the Tax Amount as 65.66 JPY but still the correct SGD amount is based on the Vendor Original Invoice Exchange Rate 65.66 and not the System Exchange Rate, 63.49 in the same Invoice Creation (MIRO)?

Incorrect currency in R/3 after change

Hi all.
SRM 4.0, server 5.0, extended classic scenario.
I have a situation where a currency and price change in SRM should be transfered to R/3 - the price itself is transfered fine, but the currency is not changed in the R/3.
Example.
PO is created with 1 item in SRM:
10 USD
In R/3 it is also 10 USD.
Now in SRM I change it to 5 EUR instead.
In R/3 it is now 5 USD.
I have tried searching for notes, but they only seem to relate to incomplete prices and not currencies - here the price update is fine, but the currency remains the same.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
DM

Hi
Which SRM version / Scenario are you using ?
Are you using any BADI Implementations ? Check using SE19 Transaction (name starting with Y or Z).. Take help of ABAP resourcein this case.
Also, Please try the following SAP OSS Notes, which will definitely help ->

How to transfer currency rates to R/3 after dynamic modelling in BPS

Hi all,
I need your advice.
I have, for example, a several sales plans, which were composed by using BPS. Each of sales plans depends on currency rates. After comparision these plans, I selected and approved one of them. After plan approval I transfer planned data to R/3.
This is an issue to transfer currency rates, which corresponded to selected plan as well.
Is there standart method to transfer currency rates for selected plan to R/3 (to "Currency Exchange Rates", tr-n OB08)?
Your advice will be appreciated!

Hi Dmitry,
R/3 is the place basically meant for maintaining currency translation rates. If they have been maintained in BW/BPS directly, I don't think there is any facility to take them back to R/3 other than manually entering.

BPC 7.5: FX rate for opening balance from different category

Hi,
I have three categories in my system, ACTUAL, ESTIMATE and BUDGET. When we submit ACTUAL data, we also submit a forecast for the year end period (DEC in our case). We also have currency rates for FORECAST for the DEC period.
We are now working on the budget and the opening balances (business rule) are coming from the forecast since we obviously do not yet have actuals.
This copying works fine (CATEGORY_FOR_OPE on BUDGET is set to FORECAST).
However, when we run a currency conversion, we have a problem. The opening balances are set to convert at the previous year end rate which is fine. But the system uses the BUDGET category rates whereas we want it to use the FORECAST rates. But only for the opening balances, all other flows should be converted using the BUDGET rates.
Is it possible when using the currency conversion business rule, to use the FORECAST rates from the previous year end for opening flows but BUDGET rates for all other flows?
Thanks,
Arnold

Hi Arnold,
Yes this can be done.
Basically in your FX business rule table you need to have your opening flow/acctdet to use the formula [AS_IS]. This will take the group currency value from the previous period (in your case the last period of year -1 in the FORECAST category) and enter that value in the group currency field in the current year for BUDGET.
Note - If you are doing detailed balance sheet planning and you need it to always to balance to 0, then you will also need to put a line in your business rule to take [END]-[AS_IS] to the currency translation reserve. Otherwise this [AS_IS] value in GC will mean your GC balance sheet will be out of balance.
Hope this solves your issue.
Tom.

Problem with depreciation area (Incorrect currency exchange rate is used)

Good day to all SDN forumers!
I'm having a problem with one depreciation area that we set up. The reason why we configured this depreciation area is for us to enable to monitor all asset postings in another (group) currency aside from the local currency. We set it up in such a way that the depreciation would not post and would thus only "convert" the asset postings to group currency using the table rates in table TCURR (via OB08).
The problem is despite having defined an exchange rate for the current period, the system still picks up the exchange rate for 01/01/2001 which is incorrect. This affected all reports which displays incorrect values whenever I view the postings using the 2nd depreciation area we set up. Is there a way we can correct this?
I'd really appreciate your comments and suggestions guys. Thanks a lot and more power!

Update:
I created a new depreciation area by copying an existing area and updated some of the configuration. The problem is still there though, since the depreciation area still reflects the incorrect rate (similar to that of the previous depreciation area) whenever I access it using Asset Explorer. What's surprising is that even though I've already set the exchange rate (e.g. USD to EUR) to match that of the asset's capitalization / acquisition date, the posted values still do not reflect what I defined in table TCURR. Instead, it reflects the exchange rate used by the old depreciation area. Help anyone? We are already in a production client and transfer/retirement of all the assets is not an option the client would like to undertake.

Currency Conversion for Exchange rate type "AS02"

Hi Experts,
I am gonna post the most challenging problem (regarding currency conversion) I ever faced in my 1 year of BW Carrier.Kindly provide a solution.
There are three types of currency to be used in the query for Key Figure 0NET_VALUE (so total 3 Key Figures to be created)
 1.Document currency (may be any currency)
 2.Local Currency (must be EURO)
 3.Global Currency (must be USD)
From Document currency to Local Currency(EURO) we are using Exchange rate Type "M" (in Conversion Type created in Trans RRC1) [There is no problem in this conversion]
Problem starts now--->
From Local Currency(EURO) to Global Currency(USD) we have to use Exchange rate type "AS02" (in conversion type to be created in RRC1)
but there is a Business requirement that currency rate should be as per the last day of the entered period;and this logic should work for the range of periods also.
Example :
we are executing query for the period 006/2006 (posting Period)
Last day of this period is 06/30/2006,
Currency rate would be as per 06/30/2006
And this currency rate should be same throughout the period 006/2006 in query
The example was for single period,but logic must be incorporated for the range of the periods.

Hi..
There is no corresponding source key figure in the InfoSource for the target key figureof the InfoCube.
a. A source key figure of the same type can be assigned to the target key figure
(for example, sales revenue instead of sales quantity revenue).
If the currencies of both of the key figures are the same, no currency
translation can take place.
If the currencies are different, a translation can take place either using a
currency translation type or by simply assigning a currency.
The following table provides an overview of possible combinations with different
currencies in the source and target key figures:
if Source key figure currency is fixed , Target key figure currency is variable then Currency translation (CT) No CT
if Source key figure currency is fixed , Target key figure currency is fixed then Currency translation (CT) CT
if Source key figure currency is variable , Target key figure currency is fixed then Currency translation (CT) CT
if Source key figure currency is variable , Target key figure currency is variable then Currency translation (CT) CT or assignment
b. If there is no corresponding source key figure of the same type, then you have
to fill the key figure for the data target from a routine.
If the target key figure has a fixed currency, no currency translation is
carried out. This means that if translation is required, you have to execute
it in the routine.
If the target key figure has a variable currency, you also have to assign
a variable source currency to the routine. Using the F4 help you can
select a currency from the variable currencies in the communication
structure. You have two options:
You can select a variable currency and assign it.
You select a currency translation type and a currency into which you
wish to translate (To currency).
The To currency is, by default, the target currency if it is included in the
communication structure.
Creating a Routine for Currency Translation:
If you want to translate currencies in the update even though the currency translation is not
available for one of the above reasons, you can create a routine. Choose Routine, set the
Unit Calculation in the Routine and choose Create Routine. In the routine editor you get
the additional return parameter UNIT, the value of which is used to determine the target
1. save the query and it under role
 see to it is in : Restricted and calculated key figures ---> properties of k.f
2. exeute the query
3. the currency translation --> by target currency usd choose OK
conversion type : MEANTODAY Fixed target currency current date (MT)
4. Go back to the query definition by chossing chage query ( global definiton)
5. in the context menu for % share sales vouume of incoming orders, choose properties --> formula collision --> result form this formula choose OK
Note that -
your should alos set the currency translation in the properties for the two key figures sales voule EUR , choose properties ---> currency conversion key : fixed target currency , currrent date ( MT) --> target currency : American Dollar . choose OK
The translation key is a combination of different parameters that establish how the exchange rate for the translation is executed.
The parameters that determine the exchange rate are the source and the target currency, the exchange rate type and the time reference for the translation.
The source currency is determined from the data record or dynamically from the master data of the specified InfoObject (currency attribute)
The target currency can either be fixed in the translation key or selected at the time of translation.
You can also use an InfoObject (currency attribute) to determine the target currency.
The exchange rate type distinguishes exchange rates that are valid in the same time frame next to each other, for example, the bid rate, ask rate or middle rate. The exchange rate types are stored and can be maintained in a central table (TCURV).
The time reference for the currency translation can be either fixed or variable
The fixed time reference can either be a fixed key date that is stored in the translation type, or be determined using the system date when executing the currency translation.
If the time reference is variable, then the point in time for the exchange rate determination comes from the value of a time characteristic (InfoObject). The reference can, for example, be the end or the start of a fiscal year or a calendar year, a period and a month or even to the exact day. It can also be determined using a customer-specific InfoObject (for example, trading day).
Currency translation in the BEx
When selecting a translation key with a fixed target currency this currency will be added automatically to the query definition
Also, you can use translation keys selecting their target currency at the time of translation. These can be applied in two different ways:
Selection of a specific target currency in the query definition (1)
Entry by variable (2)
Dynamic translation keys require input from the InfoCube !
InfoObject value will be read during query execution
Examples:
dynamic time reference (p.eg. 0CALDAY)
 time characteristic
target currency determined by InfoObject (currency attribute)
 characteristic which contains currency in its attribute table
the corresponding InfoObject has to be part of the InfoCube
1.Define the currency attribute in the InfoObject maintenance
The currency attribute has to be a unit InfoObject of type currency
The unit InfoObject must be an attribute of the characteristic
The currency attribute should be filled in the master data table of the corresponding InfoObject (manual maintenance or upload via InfoSource)
2.Enter the InfoObject in the translation key maintenance
Only InfoObjects with a currency attribute can be used in translation keys (p.eg. 0COMP_CODE)
At the time of currency translation the value for the source currency / target currency is then derived for every record from the master data table of the specified InfoObject
All values for a query are translated ad hoc (after having executed the query) using a translation key
Depending on the translation key a fixed target currency will be used for translation or you will be able to select the target currency
The ad hoc currency translation offers only restricted functionality (selection of translation key and target currency) compared to the currency translation in the query definition
Do not forget to create your translation keys before starting your work in the Business Explorer Analyzer
Example:
You load the following record to your InfoCube:
Company Code: 1000
Amount in Source Currency: 500,-
Source Currency: FRF
Target Currency: ?
In the Update rules, you are now using a translation key which derives the target currency from the InfoObject 0COMP_CODE. During the Update Process the target currency will then be read for Company Code 1000 from the master date table of 0COMP_CODE.
With the currency translation in the Business Explorer, the source currency can currently only be determined from the data record.
Only translation keys with a fixed exchange rate type can be used in the BEx
Translation keys with a dynamic time reference (from an InfoObject) can only be used in the query definition. It is not possible to fill the InfoObject by a variable !
Translation keys getting their target currency from a currency attribute can only be selected in the query definition
When getting the dynamic reference from an InfoObject (p.eg. 0CALDAY) the currency translation will apply to each record read from the database. That means it will use the date in this record for the currency translation.
When using a variable you will restrict the output of your query to a certain amount of data. For example, you would translate all invoices of March 11 with the translation date March 11
This means, the requirement show me all invoices in my cube in group currency, conversion date: 14.07.2001 could not be solved by a variable input for 0CALDAY
I hope this would help...
with regards,
hari

Line item has incorrect Dr/Cr indicator for remaining amount

Hi all,
When I tried to clear the vendor payment in T.Code F-44, there are some exchange rate differences.So I used GL account to the difference amount for the automatic posting. And also already defined the GL account in OBA1, under key KDF. But there is no posting rules to be defined. Where the Dr/Cr indicator has be defined?. Because while simulating the document I got the error "Line item has incorrect Dr/Cr indicator for remaining amount"
I need help please.

Hi,
If you have defined the GL in OBA1 - KDF. Now double click on that GL, and assign Exchange Rate Diff a/c as gain and Loss
in Valuation tab page, also define Val Loss 1 and Val Loss 2 and Balance sheet adj. 1 account also.
I hope this found useful to you.

Currency rate not maintained for Pre- Euro data

Hi experts,
We have certain orders in BW Production environment from before the EURO zone. These orders have different local currencies eg. DEN. In BW reports the translation can not be executed, due to NO available currency records for DEN->EUR.
This happens for Exchange rate types which do not have EUR as reference currency.
How do we go about fixing this in BW?
Thanks

dear,
Currency Translation Type
A translation type is a combination of different parameters that establish how the exchange rate for the translation is determined.

Creating Currency Translation Types
       1.      On the SAP Easy Access screen for SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence, choose SAP Menu ® Modeling ® Object Maintenance ® Currency Translation Types.
       2.      Enter a technical name for the translation type. The name must be between three and ten characters long and begin with a letter. Choose Create. The Edit Currency Translation Type screen appears.
       3.      Enter a description.
Exchange Rate Tab Page:
       4.      Choose Exchange Rate Type or Ex. Rate Type from Var. to determine the exchange rate dynamically. With Ex. Rate Type from Var. you can select any variable that has been created for 0RTYPE using input help.
       5.      Choose Dynamic Exchange Rate Determination or enter an InfoObject (key figure) to be used to determine the exchange rate. The latter is only supported with updates.
       6.      Determine whether you want to perform the currency translation with the inverse exchange rate. In this case, the required translation from one currency to another is performed using the reverse exchange rate. This can be useful, for example, when values have already been translated and you need to restore the original values.
Currency Tab Page
       7.      Under Source Currency, choose whether the source currency is:
?       Determined using the data record
?       Based on a fixed source currency
?       Determined using an InfoObject. Specify the InfoObject you want to use to determine the source currency. For more information, see the example under Defining Target Currency from InfoObjectss.
?       Determined using a variable
       8.      Under Target Currency, choose whether you want to determine the target currency when translation is performed or in the translation type.
If you are determining the target currency upon translation, you can either specify a fixed target currency in the Query Designer (as a property of a key figure of type Amount) or specify a variable to be used to determine the target currency. See Setting Variable Target Currencies in the Query Designer.
If the target currency is to be determined in the translation type, choose either
?       A fixed target currency
?       A target currency from a variable; you can use input help to select any variable that has been created for 0CURRENCY
?       Alternatively, an InfoObject from which the target currency is to be determined
Note that with InfoSets, the InfoObject can occur several times within the InfoSet and therefore may not be unique. In this case, you have to specify the unique field alias name of the InfoObject in the InfoSet. The field alias name consists of: . You can display the field alias in the InfoSet Builder using Switch Technical Name On/Off.
Example: In the InfoSet ISTEST, characteristic 0CURR occurs twice. The field alias names are ISTEST___F00009 and ISTEST___F00023.
Time Reference Tab Page
       9.      Select a fixed or a variable time base for the currency translation.
?       With a fixed time reference, you can choose between:
¦       Selection upon translation
¦       Current date
¦       Fixed key date
¦       Time reference using a variable (variable for 0DATE)
¦       Query key date. In this case, the time reference is the key date that is set in the query properties in the Query Designer.
?       With a variable time reference, you can choose:
¦       Standard InfoObject (standard time characteristic: 0FISCYEAR, 0FISCPER, 0CALYEAR, 0CALQUARTER, 0CALMONTH, 0CALWEEK or 0CALDAY), which is used to determine the time of the translation
¦       Special InfoObject. This special InfoObject has to have the same properties as the standard InfoObject or it has to reference the standard InfoObject. The aforementioned notes on using InfoSets also apply here.
¦       In the Time Adjustment field, whole numbers with +/- sign
¦       In the Time Adjustment from Variable field, you can specify formula variables (1FORMULA)
The time adjustment (regardless of whether it is fixed or variable) is always related to the InfoObject specified under Variable Time Reference.
   10.      Save your entries.
