Invoice Payment Using Current Day's Exchange Rate

Hello,
The currency of our Mexico company code is peso. Sometimes, they enter invoices with a document currency of US dollar. The invoice will pick up the exchange rate applicable on the posting date of the invoice. So far, so good.
On the day of payment, they would like to change the payment currency of the invoice to peso, and would like the payment program to pick up the exchange rate applicable on the payment date, and post differences accordingly. We cannot get SAP to do this.
Once the payment currency is changed to peso, the payment program simply pays the peso amount in the invoice; it doesn't consider the exchange rate of the payment date.
Does anyone know a way to get the payment program to use the current day's exchange rate, even if the payment is in the local currency of the company code?
I appreciate any assistance. Even if you think this scenario is not possible, that would be valuable information.
Kind regards,
James

Hi James,
I created a Invoice with a Foreign currency and the exchange rate is 1.50. When I goto the Incoming Payment to pay the Invoice the document appears with the foreign currency and the exchange rate as at that date is displayed.
If I change the currency to the Local Currency in the Payment Means, the amount of the Local Currency changes according to the rate defined.
Please check if this is what is happening in your system.

Single invoice for multiple orders with different exchange rates

Hi Gurus,
We have a situation where the client wants to bill two orders together but both have been created in different months and have different header exchange rates.
Can someone advise if we can combine these orders / deliveries into one invoice if
(a) pricing dates & order creation dates are different
(b) exchange rate of order header differs for both orders
If standard behaviour is different, can someone advise how it can be manipulated to suit our requirement which is to have 1st exchange rate on those invoice items coming from 1st sales order and 2nd rate for those invoice items coming from 2nd sales order.
Thanks & Regards,
Krishna

Hi,
the date will not affect the consolidation of orders to a single invoices provided yur bill to party and all other details are same in both the docuemnts. But due to the exchange rate differences it may split. You can try the same in your test system. If it is splitting the invoice then you need to modify the requirement used in the copying control from order to billing to allow the same.

KEFC currency exchange rate issue - using end of period exchange rate

Hello,
We are experiencing currency deviations for manual upload file because exchange rate type M is using exchange rate at the beginning of the period.
We would like to use the exchange rates at the end of the period instead beginning of the period.
Does anyone know where I can find the program that KEFC uses for exchange rates during upload and how I can modify it so that it uses end of the period exchange rates.
Thanks,
Bhat

Hello Bhat,
In case actual data (plikz = 0) is updated in COPA line items. these
data will be updated in all currencies which are set in Customizing for
operating concern (tcode KEA0).
for example: operating concern ccy = USD and company code ccy = NZD
Now foreign ccy can be any ccy other than Operating concern currency
and company code currency.
Suppose you choose foreign currency = EUR and give your own KURSF
System has to convert EUR into USD as well as into NZD.
So it cannot use the same exchange rate (KURSF) for both conversions
Hence for actual data upload the system always takes the 'M' rate for
conversion.
please also refer to note 618114 for the issue.

Payment wizard - copy exchange rate from invoice

Dear Experts,
I'm facing a functional issue with the payment wizard.
my customer runs some (import) purchasing processes with fixed exchange rate from purchase order to outgoing payments.
As a result, he does not want to get any posting for exchange rate difference in the outgoing payments.
Generating the outgoing payment with the payment wizard, SBO uses the exchange rate of the day.
Is there a way to copy the exchange rate from the A/P invoice, or at least to change it somehow ?
the use of the outgoing payment transaction for manual payment enables to change the exchange rate.
But my customer needs to use the payment wizard in order to be able to generate the bank files.
Do you have any suggestion ?
waiting for your feedback
Regis

Hi Regis,
if you have agreed a price in the foreign currency your BP deals with, why not use this currency in the document flow? The amounts for your BP wwill remain the same throughout the transaction.
It doesn't really make sense not to capture exchange rate differences for your own books. If, for example you are using Euros & provided a very high value US Dollar quotation some months ago, the exhange rate difference between now & then would be significant. Therefore the automatic FX postings reflect the gain/loss your company makes according to market conditions.
All the best,
Kerstin

Cannot use Row Exchange Rate in the Draw Document Wizard

Hi Experts,
I am having problems while trying to post an AP Invoice which is copied from a Goods Receipt PO. I made two transactions in GRPO:
12/28/2011 - I used the BP Currency which is USD and the exchange rate of PHP 45. Doc No.1198
12/29/2011 - I used the BP Currency which is USD and the exchange rate of PHP 47. Doc No. 1199
While adding the AP Invoice on 12/30/2011, I have an exchange rate of PHP 46.
When trying to add the AP Invoice, I used Copy From Goods Receipt PO and I higlighted the two doc numbers 1198 and 1199. In the Draw Document Wizard Row Ex. Rate Prices I have selected the Use Row Exchange Rate from Base Document. However a system message appears which says Base Document Exchange Rate cannot be used, the rows will be updated using the target document exchange rate.
My presumption is that when I choose the Row exchange rate from base document, SAP will automatically copy the row exchange rate used in the documents so for the transactions in 12/28, the rate of PHP 45 shall be used and same goes for the 12/29 which is PHP 47.
How should I go about this? Am I missing a step here? By the way, I am using SAP B1 8.82 PL01.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Rahul,
You said 'It is not at all concerned with Exchange rate during GRPO...' If that is the case how does the Use Row Exchange Rate from Base Document in the draw document wizard work? Does this mean 1 GRPO : 1 AP Invoice so I can use the base document rate?
How should I go about with transactions like these? That is adding an AP Invoice from multiple GRPO's having different exchange rates. What I am trying to capture here is that in the AP Invoice, base document rates should be used in the row item level and not the current rate when adding the invoice.
Thanks,
Michelle

Exchange Rate for Excise Invoice (J1IIN)

Hi Experts,
which field the exchange rate is considering to calculate the excise duty for export excise invoice?
We are maintaining Exchange rate in OB08 with Exchange rate type--M (Standard translation at average rate) on daily basic as per Bank Exchange rate.
But in excise invoice we want to calculate an exchange rate from customs which is maintained in different Exchange Rate Type (it will be changed on monthly basic).
We need to copy same exchange rate from billing to Excise Invoice which is not 'M' maintained in Company code setting in CIN config.
Please suggest,
Regards,

customer master level??is there any link between customer master and purchasing?
for my case, i have the exchange rate maintained in OB08 under exchange rate type "M" and rate of 1 JPY = 0.608 INR
during migo and after the conversion i got the below exchange rates for the respective custom duties.
BED = 28,742 JPY, after conversion in MIGO 17,475.13 INR, exch rate of 0.6079997912462598
AED = 12,740, after conversion in MIGO 7,747.02 INR, exch rate of 0.6080863422291994
CESS = 575, after conversion in MIGO 349.54 INR, exch rate of 0.607895652173913
SECess = 288, after conversion in MIGO 174.76 INR, exch rate of 0.6068055555555556
why is there a slight deviation among the exch rate among the 4 excise duties?is this behaviour normal?
because if i were to calculate using exch rate of 0.608, the results for the 4 excise dutie should be as below
BED = 17475.136 INR round off to 17,475.14
AED = 7745.92 INR round off to 7,745.92
CESS = 349.6 INR round off to 349.6
SECess = 175.104 INR round off to 175.10
please advice whether is there anything wrong and if the slight deviation above is a normal behaviour for 'M" exchange rate.
Also, i have also tried putting the 'fixed exchange rate' in the PO header but it's still havng the same symptoms.
Thank you.

Use an alternative Exchange Rate Type for activity actual price

Dear All,
I try to use an alternative Exchange Rate (not M) in controlling area version "0", I need to use a custom currency exchange rate like in planned price (here I create a new planned version with exchange rate "N").
I find same notes and it seems that standard Sap use only Exchange Rate "M" for actual price but I notice that for example in transaction KB21N (activity allocation) system shows in additional info exchange rate "N" (input in version "0").
Is not possibile to use other Exchange Rate for actual price, activity allocation, for confirmed activity in production order?
Controlling area has currency type 30 (group currency EUR), this company has MXN.
Thanks in advance for your support
Daria

In KB21N (activity allocation), system uses the exchange rate type you have maintained in controlling area version plan settings (transaction OKEQN). Activity allocation during the month always happen at the planned price maintained in KP26 at the exchange rate specified in plan version. During actual price calculation and revaluation during month end, it calculates actual activity price at (uses M rate to convert to controlling area currency) and revaluates consumption.
I think you cannot use other exchange rate, see the coding in include LKSPIF00 that is used in KSII where currency type is hard coded to M, if this is plan price calculation it's picking tka07-kurst.

Exchange Rate Types Used In What Transactions

Hi Experts!
I was inquiring on if there is a way to see all exchange rate types ("M" and alternative exchange rate types), with respects to where they are used, posted, and most importantly, what all transactions use them. The exchange rate types we use are M (system), Z1 (custom), and 0011 (custom). Even if there is a SAP note, on this, that would be helpful too. Urgent! Thank you for your time!
WC

Hi Will,
Execute transaction code OB07 to see all the exchange rate types within your system.
The following should help you to understand where they are used and which transactions used them.
In planning, exchange rate types are used to specify exchange rates used for different purposes at the same time in the system. Existing entries may not be deleted.
When exchange rate conversions take place between many different currencies, using a reference currency can simplify maintenance of exchange rates. For the exchange rate types concerned, you then only have to specify the exchange rates in relationship to the reference currency for all currencies. The SAP R/3 System then carries out all exchange rate conversions in two steps, using the reference currency.
As well as a buying rate "G", you can also maintain a selling rate "B".
The buying rate is that under which the average rate "M" is recorded.
When maintaining a buying rate, enter the appropriate currency type for the average rate. This reduces the amount of work required in the conversion table.
The selling rate is that under which the average selling rate is recorded.
The user need only maintain the conversions for the average rate. The conversion occurs by determining the average rate and then adding the difference between the rates to this rate.
If an entry for a currency conversion is missing, the indicator Invert ensures that the reversed currency relationship, should one exist, is available for the conversion.
Standard settings
The standard R/3 System includes exchange rate type P (standard translation for cost center accounting).
Note
When you create a controlling area, the SAP R/3 System creates version 000 automatically for 5 years. Rate type P is defaulted.
The R/3 System uses rate type M for currency conversion during postings and clearings of documents.
Recommendation
Before creating your own exchange rate types, check those offered by SAP and use them if appropriate.
I hope the above helps.
Do not forget to award the points please.

Jacob

There is a custom exhange rate type ZXXX in our system, however, we don't know where this exchange rate type ZXXX is used. Is there any method that we can find where this exchange rate type is used?
Many thanks.

Issue in picking the daily exchange rate on Inovices.

Hi All,
I am facing a problem with the daily exchange rate on invoices from a particular sales organization. We have an issue when an invoice is cancelled and then reissued. Currently the new invoice is taking the exchange rate from the original invoice which is incorrect, it should be pick a new exchange rate from the day that the new invoice is created.
Are there any configuration settings for this. Where do i need to check.
Would appreciate your help if you could help me.
Thanks,
Mercy

Hi Mercy,
Go to transaction FBZP ->"paying company codes"-> double click the company code and check if the field
"Do not Post any Exchange Rate Differences" is flagged.
"Do not Post any Exchange Rate Differences
Use
Ensures that no exchange rate differences are posted by the payment program.
If the indicator is set, no exchange rate difference posting is generated. The amount in the bank posting in local currency does not result from translating the foreign currency amount at the current rate but from the total of the local currency amounts from the settled items.
If the indicator is not set, the difference between the exchange rate at the time of posting and the exchange rate at the time of payment is determined for items which are posted in foreign currency. The payment program uses the translation rate in the currency table in the system for this purpose.
The exchange rate differences which have been determined are automatically posted for each payment. A valid table rate is used when you post to a bank account or a bank sub-account."
I hope I could be of assistance.

Help me about Indexes and Exchange rate

I see in SAP B1 have form Exchange rates and Indexes. I don't know mean of Index. What does it use for? And Exchange rates relate to Indexes. I can't understand. Can you help me.

Hello Tien,
You are clever. There are also some member forums could not know how benefit the helpfiles for them and a certain member in this forum is called forum point seeker, take this as an opportunity.
Indexes in SAP B1 are used to define consumer price index (CPI). h
ere is the definition :
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures inflation as experienced by consumers in their day-to-day living expenses. (It is sometimes referred to as the retail price index.) There are separate indexes for two groups or populations of consumers:
The CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) is the index most often reported by the national media.
The CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) is the index most often used for wage escalation agreements.
The CPI inflation calculator allows customers to calculate the value of current dollars in an earlier period, or to calculate the current value of dollar amounts from years ago.
Consumer price indexes often are used to escalate or adjust payments for rents, wages, alimony, child support and other obligations that may be affected by changes in the cost of living. There is a fact sheet explaining how to use the CPI for escalating contracts.
A new price index called the Chained Consumer Price Index (C-CPI-U) is now available. This new measure is designed to be a closer approximation to a "cost-of-living" index than the CPI-U or CPI-W.
Based on that definition, we could obtain it as data when determining exchange rate in daily business or price of the inventory items

Ideas for Dynamic Dashboard creation based on exchange rates

Hi,
There is a query to create dahboard for revenue details from various accounts (various sales companies with various currancies). The C-level executive would also like to view a consolidated graph (dashboard) for all comapnies with the options to select display currency as per his choice (USD/EUR/GBP etc) and the data would change according to the day's exchange rates (maintained in SAP C4C).
Now while a report can be made in which we give selection parameter based absolute parameter & exchange rate pick up date, the same is required at dashboard level to reduce the number of clicks & for ease of executive.
Can the experts guide me on creating such a dashboard...
Regards,
Rahul

hi Rahul,
With the current capabilities in the dashboard, you cannot pass a selection criteria. This is something on our list as a planned future capability.
In the meanwhile, if you can arrive at the main two or three currencies that the C-level user is interested in using for monitoring analytics, then you can create multiple variants for each of the reports for each currency and create multiple dashboards enabling the respective variants for each dashboard. Its not the most optimal, but you could have one dashboard per currency and the user can just switch via the dropdown to view the dashboard in the next currency of interest.
Hope this helps.

Sebastine

Exchange rate date in billing documents

Hello,
we have a process in which from one contract we create invoices, credit memos, ... without creating any delivery.
Some contracts were created on 2004, and when we create the invoice/credit memo, ... the exchange rate at item level is taken from contract's date and not billing date (i am not too sure why at header level it takes it from billing date).
In copy control you can set it at item level with VTFA, for example combination WV to G2. Then Click on items >>> select item >>> details >>> PricingExchRate type
There are various options
A - Copy from sales order
B - Xchange rate = accounting rate
C - Exchange rate determination according to billing date
D - Exchange rate determination according to Pricing date
E - Exchange rate determination according to current date
F - Exchange rate determination according to service rendered date
I can select C and then it works.
The question is how to restrict this by company code, as a change here will afect all countries. Maybe we can use the copying control in VOFM?
Thanks and regards,
Fernando

I'm not aware of any other solution than creating a new dcument flow and corresponding item category or maybe determine a specific item category through a user exit. But, considering my experience as consultant facing this kind of problems a lot, i would suggest to make an inquiry amongst the other company codes to check if them as well would rather have this kind of exchange rate determination. Most of the times is worth it.... People don't want to bother or risk any change, and you end up with systems unecessarily mixed and complicated..

Exchange rate difference posting deactivate in MIRO

Hi
Exchange rate difference posting is active, I do not want
to post to this account, How to deactivate this.
Shoudl i change in the config under invoice verification - How to treat exchange rate diff ? will it create any other problem ?
Pl Suggest.
RRS.

Dear RRS,
Please note following things
To enter invoice in foreign currency following settings must be done in SAP system.
1. You must have defined the currency you are using to enter the invoice
2) You must configure an exchange rate of foreign currency & local currency in customization
3) You can define diffrent rate for diffrent time period
For a PO in foreign currency you can decide whether the rate from the PO to convert the foreign currency to the local currency at GR or IV.
If you fix exchage rate in PO then you can change it at GR or IV.
If the exchange rate is not fixed the system uses the current exchange rate at GR.In IV the system also suggest the current exchange rate as exchange factor but you can change it.
