Indirect rate to be put as Direct rate in TCURR in the past?

Hi,
We used to store all the rates as direct from 2001 to 2003 but then after 2003-2014 we started using indirect rates for most of the currencies. What if we put indirect rates instead of the direct rates in TCURR from 2001-2003? I tried to put the indirect rates from 2001-2003 in TCURR(OB08) in the test system  and they appear red, probably because OBBS settings have not been changed.
What is the impact of changing a direct rate to an indirect rate of the past dates...we are not going to change the current rate from 2003 till 2014.
Please advise.

Dear Teejay,
kindly take a look on Note 783877 - Currency translation: FAQ - especially on part "V. Customizing changes":
2. What should I consider if I want to change the standard notation from direct to indirect quotation, or vice-versa?
The system uses the standard notation to decide if it should determine and propose a directly or indirectly quoted exchange rate from the rates stored in TCURR for exchange rate types with a reference currency (table TCURV-BWAER is filled). In spite of this, you can enter a directly or indirectly quoted exchange rate in a posting transaction
Adjustments are therefore non-critical.
Best regards,
Vera

  • Direct and Indirect Rates

    Hi Guru's,
    Can i know the difficulties in switching from direct to indirect rates.
    Currently in SAP we are inputting direct rates (eg .89694) for the conversion from USD to CAD.  This is causing FX issues when it comes to interco invoice processing as well as completing the Management report.  I would like SAP to switch to using the indirect rate (eg 1.1149). 
    Thanks for your help and will assign good points.
    Thanks

    Well, I have this wonderful SAP-documentation:
         All R/3 applications and functions process exchange rates using the direct quotation as well as the indirect quotation. Whether the exchange rate is defined or communicated using the direct or indirect method of quotation depends on the market standard or the individual business transaction. The use of indirect quotation is neither application nor country-specific - it affects all the components in which exchange rates are used.
         The direct quotation is also known as the price notation: The currency value is expressed in the local currency per unit of foreign currency. The indirect quotation is also known as the volume notation: The currency value is expressed in units of the foreign currency per unit of the local currency. Example:
         local currency: EUR, foreign currency: USD
         direct quotation: 1 USD = 0.92000EUR
    One unit of foreign currency USD costs the displayed number of units of local currency
         indirect quotation: 1 EUR = 1.08696 USD
    For one unit of the local currency EUR you will receive the displayed number of units of the foreign currency.
         For each currency pair you can define either the direct quotation or the indirect quotation as the standard notation for the exchange rate. If the exchange rate you enter does not have the same quotation as the standard quotation set up here, the exchange rate is highlighted to show this.
    From a mathematical point of view, it does not make any difference, you only need to be consistent. You cannot have one exchange rate as direct, another one as indirect quote. This will lead to hilarious figures in documents where you have items in local and different foreign currencies.
    The numerical issue is that you may gain more reliability for certain rates where you will lose a significant digit depending on direct/indirect. It was quite different to do a direct quote of the Italian Lira against the Euro as compared to the indirect quote. However, there are additional settings that help circumvent this problem.
    Hope this helps. Just remember: The main thing is to be consistent.
    Kind regards,
    Rudolf

  • Exch.Rate Type for Determining the Proposed Rate

    Dears,
    I defined, in the document type to be used for Goods Receipt, the field T003-KURST (Exch.Rate Type for Determining the Proposed Rate) equal to u2018Pu2019: exchange rate type used also for standard translation for cost planning.
    Then, I created a Purchase Order using a vendor in foreign currency, and in the header section within tab u2018Delivery/Invoiceu2019 in field "Exchange Rate" I filled in the exchange rate valid at the moment of the Purchase Order creation and I also put the flag in the indicator "Fixing of Exchange Rate".
    Afterwards, I posted  the Goods Receipt against the Purchase Order created at the previous step.
    My expectations were to find in FI accounting:
    - 1 line item for stock increase (transaction BSX) valuated using the exchange rate defined in the document type in field T003-KURST;
    - 1 line item for GR/IR increase (transaction WRX) valuated using the exchange rate defined in the Purchase Order and indicated as fixed;
    - 1 line item for difference (transaction PRD) between stock and GR/IR.
    but when I checked the accounting document, these my expectations were not met, because:
    - the line item for stock increase (transaction BSX) has not been valuated using the exchange rate defined in the document type in field T003-KURST, but a differet exchange rate that I didnu2019t find defined for this couple of currencies;
    - the line for GR/IR increase (transaction WRX) has been valuated as expected using the exchange rate defined in the Purchase Order and indicated as fixed;
    - the line item for difference (transaction PRD) between stock and GR/IR has been created.
    The help (F1) for field T003-KURST, show the following indication:
    Exch.Rate Type for Determining the Proposed Rate
        Rate type under which the proposed rate is defined for foreign currency documents.
    Use
        If no exchange rate is specified in the document header when entering documents in foreign currencies, the system will automatically select a rate from the currency translation rate table.  The system then converts all amounts in the document's line items using this exchange rate.
        The system uses the average rate as a default value as long as no other exchange rate type is entered here.
    Based on this message, my expectation is that all documentu2019s line items have to be converted at the exchange rate type defined in field T003-KURST. And in the case mentioned above, the line for stock (BSX) should be converted at exchange rate type defined in field T003-KURST.
    While, correctly, the line for GR/IR (WRX) has been converted at the exchanged rate fixed in the purchase order.
    Can you please let me know how can be fixed the problem for the line related to the stock allowing the conversion using the exchange rate type defined in field T003-KURST?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jody

    Hello Jody,
    kindly consider the information contained under the attached note:
    191927 - Posting logic: GR for foreign currency PO.
    As stated in it:
    Postings to the material stock account (BSX):
    In order to be able to determine the value of the stock posting, the
    valuation methods which exist in the material master in local currency
    (standard price, total value of stock) must be converted into document
    currency. This translation is thus carried out on the posting date with
    the exchange rate type that is assigned to the FI document type used,
    that is, independent from the exchange rate defined in the purchase
    order!
    If no exchange rate type is assigned to an FI document type, the system
    uses exchange rate type M.
    Please, check in your system the settings stored in the customizing
    transaction OBF4 for the document type WE (Goods receipt). If the field
    'Exch.Rate Type for foreign currency documents' is empty, the exchange
    rate type M is used.
    The fixed conversion rate in the purchase order refers to the valuation
    approach in the purchase order and, therefore, to the costs for the
    purchased material. Therefore, the posting amount to the GR/IR clearing
    account (WRX) is converted according to the fixed conversion rate in the
    purchase order header.
    On the other side the fixed conversion rate in the purchase order is not
    designed for converting the posting values to the material stock account
    (BSX). This conversion reflects the situation of the valuation of the
    material stock and is therefore designed to be independent of the
    conversion rate defined in the purchase order. This is what note 191927
    outlines.
    In the note 191927 you will also locate relevant information about the
    postings to the KDM key:
    Exchange rate differences (KDM):
    As of Release 4.0A, exchange rate differences (KDM) can be posted to a
    separate account. The exchange rate differences result from the
    difference of the clearing value on the GR/IR clearing account (WRX) in
    document currency that is translated to the current exchange rate stored
    in the system in local currency from the clearing value in local
    currency that is determined with the conversion factor from the purchase
    order or the invoices.
    The offsetting entry for the exchange rate differences is settled with
    the price difference.
    (Price difference = GR/IR amount - stock value - exchange rate
    difference)
    KDM is only posted during the GR if the flag T169P-XPLCU is initial,
    therefore, KDM postings will not occur during incoming invoices.
    This is determined in the IMG path:
    Materials Management
    -> Logistics Invoice Verification
       -> Incoming Invoice
          -> Configure How Exchange Rate Differences Are Treated
    Here, you have the following options per Company Code:
    .- The exchange rate differences will be calculated from the difference
       between the exchange rate at the time of the goods receipt and the
       exchange rate at the time of the invoice receipt.
    .- The exchange rate differences will be calculated from the difference
       between the exchange rate at the time of the invoice receipt and an
       assumed exchange rate that is valid for a specific amount of time,
       such as a year or a season.
    .- No exchange rate differences will be calculated. Instead, differences
       from exchange rate variations will be considered as price differences
       and posted to a price difference account.
    The field T001A-CURDT for the company code will determine which date is
    relevant to calculate the exchange rate difference.
    This is set under the IMG path:
    Financial Accounting
    -> Financial Accounting Global Settings
       -> Company Code
          -> Multiple Currencies
             -> Define Additional Local Currencies
    So, finally, the value for KDM calculates as difference between
    GR/IR amount in local currency - GR/IR amount in foreign
    currency*exchange rate.
    I hope this information can be of help.
    cheers

  • I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!

    I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk - I don't have any room left on my computer. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!  This is seriously frustrating!.
    Additionally, I'd like to be able to take the 2000+ photos out of iPhoto and put them on a disk in a folder. I have managed to export them to the hard disk but it's just plonked all 2000+ photos in a list - not ideal if I want to use it for anything else. And then I have to manually delete the photos from iPhoto. Is there not a quick and easy way of dealing with this? 
    Anyone got any bright ideas? Thanks for your help!

    I too would like to be able to do this. Just put them where i want the. IFTT a scripting app will put the images in dropbox for you , but its been pretty iffy.

  • BILLING TO ACCOUNTING - FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE IN THE PAST

    Hi All,
    1.     In FI, we are maintaining translation rates on regular basis and the translation (FI)/ pricing (SD) date is our reference in SD transactions from Contract to Billing.
    2.     In Contract, we maintain foreign currency, exchange rate, and pricing date.  Here in the contract, we are currently billing an item in the past using exchange rate in the past as well.
    3.             However, when we pass this to billing, pricing date is updated on its current date.
    4.             Because of this, accounting entry that was recognized was also translated on current date.
    Is there any way that we can change the pricing date to the Billing Document so that the accounting entries will pick up translation rates maintained in the past.  Please advise.

    The issue was resolved by also maintaining exhange rate inside SO/Contract in "Exchange-Rate Accounting" field.

  • Fixed exchange rate in PO vs the exchange rate maintained in OB08

    Dear experts,
    When I input a PO in ME21N, I noticed that there is a field letting me to input exchange rate.
    And I also know that the exchange rate the system automatically picks is from what we have maintained in OB08.
    Can I understand that if we have no value input in ME21N, then the systems picks the exchange rate we setup in OB08 when we post invoice in MIRO?

    Let me take an example to check if my understanding is correct.
    In a German comapny, one PO is created in USD.
    The exchange rate from USD to EUR is already maintained in OB08. I did not tick the fix indicator (not matter I input any rate in PO). The system will pick the rate from OB08 in MIGO and invoice posting, right?
    Another scenario, I input the specific exchange rate in PO, and tick the fix indicator. The system will pick the rate from PO for MIGO and invoice posting, right?
    Is there any chance we can input differenct exchange rate in GR or invoice from the one we used in PO?

    This is what apple officially suggests but its a crappy method because it first goes through iTunes then when the user hits the review button, it hangs and then loads the app store app, and sometimes it just crashes.
    To send customers to a specific application:
    http://itunes.com/apps/appname
    To send customers to a list of apps you have on the App Store:

  • Is there an all in one printer that allows me to scan multiple pictures at one time and put them directly into iPhoto?

    I am looking to replace an old HP psc 2210 all in one printer  with a new all in one that will let me scan multiple photos at one time and put them directly into iPhoto.  Dos anyone have suggestions for a printer that will do this?

    I use an HP Photosmart, but most scanners will scan multiple photo's. I just make sure in the scan preferences, I tick the box to "Detect Seperate Items". I normaly scan 6 to 8 photo's at a time, size depending on how many I can fit on the scanner bed. I set the preferences to scan directly to iPhoto.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Eriksimon,
    Firstly, thanks for your message.
    What I meant by "hi pass mid pass shrinking in" is EXACTLY what you menat, I got a heavy bass and muffed high and mid content. Apologised for my poor English.
    I haven't checked the setting of the playback device yet but instead I tested it with some professional produced tracks. I know the sound tends to vary a little bit when playing from computer and CD player such as the CDJ 900 that I am using. The differences were not as significant as my own track. They tend to get a rather good balance. My track is well balanced and mixed (I guess) in Logic but it turns out completely different when using the CD player.
    I bounced my work to MP3 with highest BIte Rate.

  • Want to put URLs into a custom field in the requirements

    I tried to put some code into a custom field in Empirix eManager. I was trying to add a URL to the requirement where the person could see more information. Specifically, we have use-cases online and a mockup of the final product to be developed. I wanted to put a mockup URL and use-case URL for each of the requirements where appropriate to help the developers further understand their task.
    So, I did added something like this into the custom field when creating the test case:
    View Textbook Use Case
    Unfortunately the javascript didn't execute because the eManager application put the whole command in as a string. What displayed is exactly what you see above. I'm sure this is done for security reasons so that cross-sight scripting is protected against. However, I'm not trying to do anything suspect -- just trying to link things together.
    So I went to the database for our project in eManager. I could bypass the security coding that disallows code to be placed into the field by adding it at the database level. However, when I got there it became evident that I didn't know the datamodel well enough to successfully add a field value there without possibly causing some problems. In the past I've only queried the database and not any modifications.
    Can someone tell me how a custom field value is inserting into the database? Which tables does it need to be added to to maintain referential integrity? Or alternatively, do you have a document with the schema outlined? Are there any important stored procedures we'd be missing if going directly at the database. Can anybody advise me?

    Hello Gandalf,
    If you created a customer field in OXK3, I am afraid that the customer defined field created is only
    available on G/L account line items but not Customer or Vendor line items(The field is not available on SAPMF05A screens 301 and 302).But it is possible to use it in fast entry screens SAPMF05A 8xxx (see note 2596).
