Input & System exchange rate difference make additional line item as different version in COEP

We posting cost for WBS as foreign currency.
But posted exchange rate differ system exchange rate.
(posting is made by web system and daily exchange rate update is missing in posting date)
In table COEP, additional line item was created as version 9 (PCA valuation version)
and only have transaction currency amount (COEP-WTGBTR)
that amount logic is below
(1) FI input exchange rate              9.8599
(2) system exchange rate               9.7841
(3) Input JPY                                 676,450
(4) Translated KRW (Input rate)      6,669,729 = (1) * (3)
(5) Translated KRW (system rate)   6,618,454 = (2) * (3)
(6) Diff                                          51,275      = (4) - (5)
(7) Diff translated JPY(system rate) 5,241        = (6) / (2) ==> COEP Version 9 transaction currency amount.
why this amount is created as Version 9
and any effect comparing to same input exchange rate & system exchange rate?

Hi,
I got your point.
Its a standard behaviour as part of parerral valuation with addtional local currency.
Please make sure that the below are set in your system.
1) in OB22, for your company code, for the HARD CURRENCY--The source curr must be Translation taking first local currency as a basis
2) For every foriegn currency you use, you maintain the exch rates in OB08 with Foriegn Currency 2 Local Currency combination always. And at the same time make sure that there is no opposite combination rates for the same.
(Like 1 USD = 50 INR...1 GBP = 80 INR....1 EUR = 60 INR only)
These may avoid most of the cases where 0.00 LC value lines during clearing.

Avoid posting of realized exchange rate differences in 2nd local currency

Dear SAP fans,
The situation here in our company is that a company code is set up with NZD as 1st and EUR as 2nd local currency (currency type 30 "Group currency" for EC-CS consolidation).
Therefore, all postings (and balances) are also translated and saved in EUR (with the current exchange rate).
We now have an open item managed G/L account for prepaid expenses, which is used to collect postings which are then cleared later. It's however no payable/receivable account for vendors/customers. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to post realized exchange rate differences when clearing this account. This is however what SAP wants to do when we try to clear it.
For example, if I post today 100 NZD and two months later again 100 NZD to this account. If the NZD vs. EUR exchange rate changed in the meantime, then SAP won't let me clear this account without posting realized exchange rate differences, which makes however no sense.
Does anyone of you meet this problem before? Could you please give me a hint?
I thought about setting the "Only balances in local currency" indicator in the G/L account master but this helps only for differences between local and document currency (and not for differences in 1st and 2nd local currency).
Any help is highly appreciated!
Thanks and best regards,
Peter

Dear Padma,
Thanks for your answer. The customizing activities you mentioned are already set up in the system. This is not our problem.
The problem is however, that we don't want SAP to post automatically realized exchange rate differences between 1st and 2nd local currency as this doesn't make sense in this business case.
It's about an open item managed G/L account which is used to collect posting which are later cleared. It's not a payable/receivable account for customers/vendors where the posting of realized exchange rate differences makes sense.
We've thought about several solution which unfortunately all didn't help us:
- Don't setup realized exchange rate differences accounts or set them up only for group currency (in OB09)
- Set indicator "Only balances in local currency" in G/L master data
Best regards,
Peter

Settlement of exchange rate difference

Hi All,
After doing final payment of PO in which Network is used as cost object, i.e. through transaction F-58, and if the PO is of import nature and in different currency, an automatic line item of exchange rate difference occurs. While doing settlement of the Network to roll up its related amount to main project, all amount gets settled while exchange rate difference and liquidity damages does not. Isn't PS tightly integrated with FI in such cases? Any suggestions on how to settle such amount?
Thanks
-Nayab

Hi,
You said about automatic creation of new line item for exchange rate difference, What is the Item category for the new line item? to which cost object is this line item account assigned ? For it flow back in to Network, it should be account assigned to Network. If creation of this new line item is achieved thru development, then also update it to account assign the new line item to Network.
When you post the GR for a P.O , GR/IR acct is credited and Inventory acct is debited by the material proce. If it proj spec item and Non stock then cost is recognised as actual cost in project.
Any difference amount occured during MIRO, GR/IR account is debited by same amount as it was credited while MIGO and Difference amount goes to Price Diff account. And vendor is credited by the MIRO amount.
Vendor Credit = Debit GR/IR + Debit Price Diff account.
At period end you can distirbute the cost from Price Diff account to Orgin objects of cost i.e project. Catch here will be to identify how to distribute to each proj from Price Diff account. May be you can think of some common % or use SKF (Statstical Key Figure).
Thanks

Additional line item for Exchange rate gain / loss

HI,
We ahve three currency as Main currency (INR), group currency (INR) and Hard currency (USD).
When we pay to vendor or received from customer, system generate additional line item for Exchange rate gain / loss with Rs. Zero . But transaction is in INR. But it has value in USD as USD 0.01.
Please suggest.

Exchange rate difference not getting posted to KDM account during MIGO/MIRO

Hello Gurus,
I have a purchase order with many line items. For some of the line items, the exchagne rate difference between the date of MIGO and the date of MIGO is taken to the KDM account. But for some other line items, it is not being taken the KDM. For such line items, the value of the GR/IR account in the local currency is different from MIGO to MIRO. Due to this, the GR/IR clearing is not happening automatically.
Do you have any idea, why the system is not taking the different to KDM for some line items and taking it correctly to KDM for others.
The only difference that I noticed between these 2 line items was
In case where the KDM account is determined, the GR was done for only one line item
In case where the KDM was not determined, the GR was done for more than one line item.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Thanks and Regards
Venkatesh

Hi Venkatesh,
I suspect that in your system may be the setting in OMRW is not activated. If the CCurr indicator is not activated for respective company code. Please refer to the information from note 980402 :
After you implement this note, you can use Customizing transaction OMRW to make settings for the new logic for each company code and each currency (the first local currency and two other material ledger currencies, if the material ledger is active). If the CCCurr indicator (V_169P_PK-KDHW) is set, this activates a new logic for calculating the exchange rate difference (KDM amount) in the company code currency (first local currency). As a result, the system also generates KDM lines for purchase orders with account assignment and for purchase orders with MAP materials in inventory management and in invoice verification if required. If the material ledger (ML) is active, you can set a corresponding indicator for additional ML currencies.Bear in mind that the system performs a 1:1 cancellation for the KDM line in the cancellation transactions.
If the indicator is not activated, then the new logic for calculating the exchange rate difference is not active.
I hope this helps.

MIGO exchange rate difference incorrectly.

In transaction MIGO exchange rate difference lines are generated for planned delivery costs. In some cases we found the difference exchange rate comes from the exchange rate of the purchase order, and other times we cannot find where the difference comes from. Both cases are incorrect.
Note 1278540 has already been inplemented.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Cecilia

hi,
If you make the exchange rate as Fixed via using the indicator in the PO header, then system will take this while GR and IR....if not maintained, then system will take from EKAB table...

Just an update to this issue- I just found out that the system is pointing to KBS when posting the
exchange rate difference in group currency upon IR, hence, PO account
assignment is adopted. I'd like to rephrase my question- is there any
way we can change SAP behaviour such that it will point to other
transaction key (e.g. KDG) other than KDM? Bottomline is we want it
charged to other GL account not the one in the PO.
Thanks so much for your assistance.

According to me, system wont calculate exch rate differences during MIRO.
Please make sure that, you have not selected the Exch Rate Fixed check box in PO header part, next to the exch rate field.
MIGO Entry:
Inventory/Expense Dr 100USD   5000INR
GR/IR......................Cr 100USD   5000INR
MIRO Entry:
GR/IR......................Dr 100USD   4700INR
Vendor....................Cr 100USD    4700INR
In this case, system will create 0 USD & 300 INR for forex diff gl line item, when you clear the GR/IR open items only.
Assume INR is your LC.

Exchange rate difference in f-03

Hi all
pl. help me. I am not able to clear open item in f-03 which is maintained in BRL. I am posting payment in usd. the error reads:
Ex.rate diff.accts are incomplete
Diagnosis
The accounts for posting exchange rate differences could not be determined. For the specified G/L account and the specified currency key, the accounts are only specified incompletely. Either the accounts for the implemented exchange rate difference, the accounts for the valuation differences or the balance sheet adjustment account are missing.
System response
The system cannot generate the exchange rate difference posting.
Procedure
By pressing ENTER, you achieve that the document is reset to a status without automatic posting. In another window, you can complete default settings for exchange rate differences and post the document afterwards.
I have called transaction OBA1, and entered the GL a/c and currency BRL. Even i cannot save it says
"Enter line items first or choose open items"
pl reply friends urgently
Thks
uma

Hi Uma,
Exchange Rate has been defined both the end. Like INR = USD and USD = INR.
Here you are not yet defined GL account for Exchange Rate Difference account (Gain or Loss).
T.Code OB09 Define G/L , Currency and Currency Type.
Before that you would have the GL account please create in FS00.
Hope it will help you.

Exchange Rate Difference Posting

Dear Gurus,
I am facing atypical scenario in Production and development Clients.While clearing open items for a BanlK GL (USD Currency) in production there is no exchange differences being calculated by the syste.There is difference in Exchange rates between the original document and the clearing document.
But for the same GL in Development I am getting Posting to Account maintained in KDB Key.
I would like to know what can lead to difference in scenario that in one case system is calculating difference and posting and in the other case no.
Please help.
Regards
Raju

Dear All,
Let me elaborate the scenarion in more deatil:
We post Foreign Currency Invoice LIV--MIRO say rate is 41 USD/INR
For payment F110 No Exg rate differences is selected in FBZP--So no Exchange Rate Difference is posted for payment.
Now for clearing the bank Sub account Entry posted by APP user input LIV Exg rate in past and systen allowed to clear with no Exg rate Differ.This is OK.
Now when user try to clear same account with same entry system is issue msg like No Exg Rate diss account maned.I tried to clear th GL document with both LIV and APP exchage rate its strange that is each case system expects Exchange rate diff account.
I maintained in FBKP KDB in development client but then Exg Rate diff is getting posted which is not the requirement.
Can any body please help.

Exchange rate difference while posting ME21N MIGO and MIRO

Hi All,
I am facing one problem with exchange rate type between M and EURX and EURX is maintanined in the SPRO>SAP Netweaver>General Settings>currencies>Check Exchange rate types
EXRT : EURX
Usage    : EMU Reg,fixed
Ref.Curr    : EUR
Buy.ra.at
Sall .Rat.At
Inv
EMU   :X
FIXED
Scenario:
Company(USD) is maintaning Exchange rate type: M and no exchange rates are maintained for USD:EUR or EUR:USD.
Eur is maintaing in Exchange rate type EURX.
1) PO (ME21N) is posting for the Vendor on posting date 01/01/2008. Transaction currency is EUR and company code currency is USD and Quantity : 25000
--> Exchange rate 'M' is not maintained for EUR and values are picking from the EURX Type. In the PO, Exchange rate is picking correctly from the EURX table entries on 01/01/2008.
2) MIGO: GR is posted on 01/25/2008 and with 15000 Quantity. Exchange rate is getting currecly from the table on 01/25/2008.
3) MIRO: IR is posted on 02/15/2008 and Vendor Account is picking correct exchange rate from the table but GR/IR account is caluculations EUR:USD is differntly .
Note: It is not GR based IR.
Ex:
PK AC                DESCRIPTION                    Tran Curr (EUR)    Local Curr USD
31 5004789     Vendor Account                       24,718.48-            38,777.12- USD
86 2525000      A/P-GR/IR NON-INV                24,718.48            38,883.73 USD
91 6584785      SERV-OTHER O/S                    0.00                 106.61- USD
Here GR/IR account is cal dirrently.
4) Credit Memo posted against IR on 03/25/2008. Exchange rate is given while posting CM same as Invoice. But system rate is different. Here also how the GR/IR is calculating is question is it not taking from Table or from any other rate types . Same problem like IR for GR/IR account.
Entry is posted like
PK ACC         Description                            Tran curr(EUR) Local curr(USD)
21 5004789     Vendor                                   24,718.48        38,777.13 USD
96 2525000     /P-GR/IR NON-INV                   24,718.48-      38,892.22- USD
81 6584785     SERV-OTHER O/S                     0.00            115.09 USD
This problem is same like GR and also SPL document is posting differenly for ZG and ZL ledger.
ZL ledger is posting same like Accounting CM document ZG is posting with the different amount . This different amount is nothing but the exchange rate as per the posting date 03/25/2008. Exchange rate on 03/25/2008 is differe from IR date 02/15/2008 .
ZL ledger is calculating based on the 02/15/2008 date and ZG ledger is calculating based on the 03/25/2008 . Difference between Exchange rate entered in the CM and 03/25/2008 table entry rate is showing exchange rate difference field in the Addtional field in the document display.
Thanks in Advance.

Dear Friends,
Thanks for your helpful answers, actually we are in big export business. So we have to clear 100s of invoice lines with payments at one go, (which obviously being booked at different dates) so it would be very difficult for the user to go one by one invoice.
My concern is, why system does not calculate exchange rate difference based on actual documents, i.e. Invoice to payments only. I think there might be some configuration needed to implement this functionality.
Please help.

Exchange Rate difference posting during MIRO posting

Hi ,
We are facing an issue for exchange rate difference posting during MIRO.
PO creation , GR posting & IR posting done on same date. Vendor in PO has different currency than company code currency. Exchange rate maintained in OB08 for this period is taken in PO.
PO value & GR value is same. Due to raw material cost there was price difference posted during GR posting.
(i.e. Raw material cost - GR/IR value = Price difference amount)
During posting MIGO, 3 accounts got posted.
Raw material cost account got debited & offset credit to GR/IR account & price difference account (in vendor & company code currency also)
During posting MIRO, 4 accounts got posted.
Vendor account got credited with GR/IR amount & offset to GR/IR account debit.
Exchange rate difference account got credited & offset to price difference account (in company code currency only)
Since PO creation , GR posting & IR posting done on same date, then why system has posted exchange rate difference account in local currency only during MIRO posting ?
Your inputs appreciated.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
there is a setting in configuration of logistics invoice verification where you can control the calculation and posting of exchange rate differences. If you had the setting active that exchange rate differences are calculated against a planned exchange rate, that might lead to the kind of postings you describe. Please check.
best regards, Udo

Exchange Rate difference in MIGO

Hello members,
During MIGO, a material document is created and subsequently an accounting document is created.
BADI has been developed as per the business requirement to post the accounting document by
taking the exchange rate as on the Document Date, wheras, the rate taken as per Material document is
posting date. Subsequently when IR is done, the sytem takes the reference of Material document
as per posting date and the exchange rate is taken as on posting date. On account of GR accounting
document(as per document date) and GR Material document(as per posting date), there exists a
difference and posted to expense account. The business requirement is the system should take
only document date for GR and IR and hence there should not be any exchange rate difference.
Whether ticking the fixed rate in exchange rate in PO will suffice or we have to make some other
settings & developments. Kindly guide.
Thanks in advance,
Sadashivan

Hi Jeyakanthan,
If we check the fixed rate, the system will pick the same rate in IR as it was in GR(Material document), the rate on the
posting date valid as per OB08. But the accounting document created for GR is as per document date which is
different from posting date and rate prevailing on document date is different. Hence, there will be a difference in the
exchange rate in GR and IR accounting documents. Any idea how the system can pick the rate as per document
date in accounting document of GR for IR postings instead of posting date?
Thanks and regards,
Sadashivan

Addl LC Activated, No Exchange Rate Differences Posting on AP Invoice

We set up a new Company Code for India. The CoCode is configured as USD. We have configured INR as an Additional Local Currency (LC2) for statutory reporting. The INR is configured as 'Hard Currency'.
Since going live, we've come to learn that paying USD invoices is not generating INR exchange gains/losses with changes in exchange rate between INR and USD. When I look at a clearing document, both lines are posted at the historical invoice exchange rate.
For the statutory accounting to be correct, I would have expected the AP payment document to clean the vendor line at the invoice exchange rate and the offset line to post at the current exchange rate. I would have then expected a third line to the payment document with the offset to exchange gain/loss. The exchange gain/loss line would post with a USD amount zero with an INR amount in the Hard Currency/LC2 field.
I believe the Open Item configuration (TransCode OBA1, KDF item) is correct. The Currency Type is 'BLANK'; therefore, good for all Currency Types including the Hard Currency.
I can't figure out what the heck I'm missing! Anyone have any idea why the clearing AP invoice is not generating the exchange gains/losses as expected?
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Gordon,
When you say
"With this version, you probably have very few options"
Does this mean with SAP B1 2007 the same problems are not there.
Please say its so and i'll upgrade immediately as I'm experiencing the same problem as the one described above by Claudio
We use one exchange rate per month. We have BP accounts whose currency is Multi Currency this is where the customer would pay either in LC (KES) or SC (USD).
The problem occurs when running conversion differences, the journal entry to the unrealized exchange gain\loss is one-sided i.e. only the SC currency is posted.
This leads to both the P&L and the Trial balances being wrong.
Thanks in advance for any assistance

Michael Mbiyu Itotia
