Invoice in foreign currency: Different local currencies issue

Hi there,
We have two company codes 1000 & 2000 and we have a business requirement that Company Code 1000 needs to make purchases on behalf of company code 2000 using a cost object (cost center 20001234) under company code 2000.
Company Code 1000 local currency USD
Company Code 2000 local currency CAD and currency of cost center 20001234 is CAD. (We are using ECC 5.0)
We are running into an issue (Different local currencies USD CAD) when we try to post the vendor invoice in foreign currency. This error happens only when a GR (goods receipt) and IR (invoice receipt) being done on different dates, and the exchange rate changed between these dates.
Any help / pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Ravi,
I have already configured purchase price variance account but still an error appears: "Inconsistent in FICO document: difference in first local currency".
Please take note the PO is charge to an asset account and usually any exchange rate difference should be charge to same account which is an asset account right? If the result of the difference is positive the systems allows the difference posting to the asset account but if the difference is a negative value above error appear.
Please assist me on this issue; any help would be highly appreciated.

MM invoice reversal-"Message No. M8396-Different local currencies CAD USD

Hi,
My client created a PO with two line items and both the line items have the plants belonging to the same company code with CAD currency. But the second item in the PO needed an account assignment and they are using a cost center belonging to other company code with USD curr. They have posted an invoice against this PO and now when they are trying to reverse/cancel the invoice they are not able to do. They are getting an error "Message No. M8396 - Different local currencies CAD USD".
Is there anyway that they can do this?

Hi Madhu,
I did not yet close the Defect but had to raise a query with SAP about the same.
I do not really know the symptoms of your issue yet.
What I have done is -I got the Business run F.13 for all old uncleared stock for all previous years that do not make sense to be still available uncleared in the system.
Then get the open items identified by the Business so that we can decide if we can clear the unclearable open items that we encounter after running F.13 and use MR11 this time but with careful selection and approval.
Once the available open items are in manageable numbers the performance of F.19 will increase.
Also, you may think about implementing 2 notes after checking if they are already there in your system via transaction SNOTE-
1058971 and 1233775.
If you still have queries upon this, do let me know and I shall try to cater better understanding upon the same.
Thanks & regards

And also check OBY6, which currency have you maintained for your company code?
And check the currency in purchasing tab in vendor master also?
Then do the MIRO,

Different local currencies

Hi
Is it possible to post different currencies for LIV of intercompany posting . for Ex, Company A have USD as local currencies, and Company B have EUR. Company A wants to process LIV on behalf of Company B. We already maintained the Parallel currencies ,but we are gettng error different local currencies , Any body over come this .There are couple of OSS notes for 4.6c.4.7 but we need it for ECC6.0 Any help will be highly appreciated .
Thanks
Jeevan

Hi,
In general the inter company procurement will be like this.
The plant of one company code will place an order to the plant of other company code.The plant which supplies the material is called supplying plant and can have a differrant corrency.
If the currencies of the two company codes are differrant, while creating the PO system takes the conversion factor from the maintained settings and during the entry of the invoice which is sent by the supplying plant(here is the vendor) this will be proposed for FI entries.
How ever you can maintain the invoicing party in the vendor partner function so that you can entry the invoice against this vendor.Please note that this process is viable as long as you enter the invoice wrt a PO.This is the normal intercompany process.
Also if the question you put is with regard to intercompany prcurement process, the company code A can not process the invoice on behalf of the company code B. because one will be the vendor which will send the invoice and another will be the receiving , and enter the invoice sent by the supplier.
If this is not the process you expectt please eloborate your scenario so that you can have a good explanation.
Regards,

In Journal can i specify the Foreign currency and local currency amount?

In Journal Entry can i specify the Foreign currency amount and local currency amount?
I tried the following code it is working fine using DIAPI.
Here the Local currency and the System currency is SGD. And the Journal is for USD.
oJnl.Lines.FCDebit = 120.10
oJnl.Lines.FCCredit = 0
oJnl.Lines.FCCurrency = "USD"
oJnl.Lines.Debit = 120.10
oJnl.Lines.Credit = 0
oJnl.Lines.Add()
oJnl.Lines.FCDebit = 0
oJnl.Lines.FCCredit = 120.10
oJnl.Lines.FCCurrency = "USD"
oJnl.Lines.Debit = 0
oJnl.Lines.Credit = 120.10
oJnl.Add()
But, the above way of doing is not working if i pass this Journal through B1.
B1 is not allowing to change the local currency amount, Local currency amount is automatically calculated based on the FC amount and the Exchange rate.
So Can i use the DIAPI to do this? is this right to do?

Solved.
In Journal Entry window, please kindly go to Form Settings/Document/
Table tab page/ Convert Amounts According to Rate upon Exit:
Clear the checkboxes 'From LC Field' & 'From FC Field', then the Local
currency amount will not be automatically calculated based on the FC
amount and the Exchange rate.

Doc. currency vs local currency diff in parked document

Hi Team,
i was parked a document with document currency USD, but the local currency is CAD.
when i opened the parked document, document in USD currency showing debit and credits are matching woth zero balance, but when i clicked on local currency the document is showing 0.03 difference.
any suggestions(i used 4.5 version)
thanks,
Ravi

Hi, Ravi:
In F-63, there is a checkbox "Only transfer amnts in document curr. invoice", it is used as followings:
If we sets this indicator it translates the doc. currency into local currency at the time of parked document.
If we not set this indicator it translates the doc. currency into local currency when posting of document.
Eg: We are parking a document with doc. currency in USD @40
the next day we are posted that document then it is @42-
the system takes the exchange rate from the header which was specified in the parked document @40- only.
If we not set this indicator it will take at the time of posting of document @42-
Hope it will help.
Best Regards, Lawrence

Clearing in foreign currnency and local currency and F13E

Hello,
I have a GL account whose Balance in Local Currency Only (BILCO) and Open Item Management (OI) flags are set. The line items posted to this account are always in foreign currency say EUR. In the month end, we use F13E (Automatic clearing with definition of clearing currency), specify EUR, and clear the line items.
But i wonder if we still need to clear in local currency or not. Financially we are not impacted, since this is a transit type of account. We dont use F.13, since in local currency there are exchange rate gains and losses, which for us for this account make no purpose to record.
Cheers

Can you please let me know the solution for the below error which i found during loading Datasource
2LIS_11_VAITM for the cube sales overview
*Under :*
Data Package 1 ( 2637 Records ) : Errors occurred
Update rules ( 2637 -> 566 Records ) : Errors occurred

Please provide solution for the above error?
Thanks,

Hi Hameed,
check the TCURR table on both the BW and R/3 side.
Then if the GBP to EURO conversion is not maintained then make an entry in the TCURR table.
If the entry is there and not maintained then maintain with correct ratio by changing the entry.
then load the data ..
May it solve your problem..

SEM -BCS Trasaction currency and Local Currency

SAPGURUS
I have one issue , When the users are doing Half yearly BCS they see that for one company code for one item period values Local currency is diifeernt from
Transaction currency .
My question is why this Transaction currency is different from local currecny.
How to rectify this .
Are they missing any exchnage rate conversion .
Thanks in Advance .
are they missing any exchnage rate conversion .

Hi Dan Sullivan
Thanks for the quick reply .
One more question .
I see in the BCS T Curency as Euro and Local currency as Euro .
but the period values localy currency is different from Transaction currency .
I think the values should be the same if both T Currecny and Local Currency is same .
I also observed that this particular difference is happening only for 2 particular set of accounts . Those accounts are related to Intercompany related G L Accounts values .
I also observed that in the Break down category for these G L Accounts The break down structure category has defined as defaulted .
I would like to know what would be the cause for the above .
Thanks in Advance .
