LIV posting for exch. rate due to GR

Hi,
During GR for a foreign curr(FC) against local curr(LC), the entry is :
DR Expense   FC$100   LC$200
CR GR           FC$100   LC$200
During LIV, the following entry are posted :
CR Vendor      FC$100 LC$180
DR GR            FC$100 LC$200
CR Expense    FC$0      LC$20
Here the strange thing is that since this is due to exch. rate differences, why did it still post the difference back to the expense account and not exch. difference acct? If we want to change to exch. diff acct, how can we do so?
Thanks,
Teo

Hi,
The automatic postings are controlled by account assignments.
Go into OMR0 transaction. Click on the account assignment button. Locate the transaction UMB (Gain/loss from revaluation) and doble click on it. Select your chart of accounts in the popup. It will then display the GL accounts assigned on the basis of valuation modifier (assigned to your company code) and valuation class (of the material). You should find your expense account maintained for this combination.
Change it to the fx gain loss account and you should be good to go.
You should be able to check this from the simulation screen of OMR0 itself.
Cheers.

LIV posting with budget exceeding due to exchange rates

Hi,
I have a budget created with $X in singapore dollars. Then i have a PO created in USD which is tied to this budget created. At the time of PO creation, the exchange rate is say, 1.4, and the "fixed exchange rate" option is not selected at PO Header.
So far, 2 LIV have been performed on this PO both using another exchange rate (due to different month) 1.52. When trying to perform the last LIV for this PO, it prompted that budget has exceeded due to the exchange rate of the previous 2 LIV which was higher than the original PO exchange rate.
Is there any workaround suggestions?
Appreciate your advise, thanks,

Hi Nidhi,
Value range
    The field CURR_TYPE (currency type) describes the role played by a
    currency in the SAP System.
    The currency type can take on the following values, for example:
    o   00      Transaction currency
    o   10      Company code currency
    o   20      Controlling area currency
    o   30      Group currency
    o   40      Hard currency
    o   50      Index-based currency
    o   60      Global company currency
    If an entry is not made in the field CURR_TYPE, the default value "00"
    is retained.
    If only one data record is transferred in transaction currency for each
    line item, the field CURR_TYPE does not need to be filled out. If
    several data records are transferred for each line item, the currency
    type must be entered for each record.
If the parameter CurrencyAmount is filled with the currency fields,
a complete document check including characteristics and value
components of profitability analysis (CO-PA). Otherwise, the account
assignment objects are checked.
Check the BAPI documentation SE37.

Default New exch.rate type at Purchase Order.

Hi,
We would like PO to be created with new Exch.rate type.
Are there any settings in MM/FI to default a different exch.rate type say u201CZu201D instead of u201CMu201D at the time of PO?
There is one in FI Doc. type, but it refers at the time of GR or IV, whereas we want to change at PO.
Will appreciate if someone can throw some lights?
Thanks,
Nirav

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Is the user exit for exch.rate type?? I understand the exit to keep the exch.rate fixed.
but, I believe it should be std. config. in SAP to define somewhere which exch.rate type should be used by PO.Because, currently PO is refering to "M" which we want to replace with new exch.rate type.
Thanks,
Nirav

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

PO for AcctAssgntCateg Project causing Exch rate variances during payment

Thanks in advance for you time in providing some guidance in resolving this issue.
When we create Purchase order of Account Assignment Category = Project, we are selecting "Exch.Rate Fixed"- KUFIXfield.
In Payment run configurations "Paying Company Codes" we have made selection "No exchange rate differences"- XKBDF field.
Though exchange rate is fixed while doing MIGO, it is not same during Payment run thereby causing additional expense towards project which is settling against an ASSET which is not acceptable for business.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions that might help us to resolve this issue.
Thank you,
Devi.

Hello Friends,
I have asked users to create a new settlement rule and post the variances (caused from FX Gain/loss) towards a different cost center so that during settlement the amounts are posted against a cost center instead settling against a fixed asset.
Thank you,

Please note account 161511 is not a foreign currrency account.Its main cash bank account(US$ account) which I set up in House bank FI12.So in OB09 I dont see that account 161511.Wht should I do ?System also takes me to OBA1-maintain FI configuration Automatic posting. DO I need to do something in here too ? Please advice.Thanks

Exchange Rate date for Invoice posting for Slovak Republic

Hi,
We have a requirement wherein for Slovak Republic, Invoice should pick up ( at the time of Invoice Posting) the exchange rate from the Delivery Note date and not the Invoice Posting Date. This is applicable for all vendors which have a Slovak Republic VAT Registration number. I suppose this is some country specific requirement for Slovak Reublic.
Do we have to apply some Notes to achieve this functionality. Any pointers to this issue is highly appreciated.

SO VBRK-KURRF (exchange rate for FI) is taken from "pricing date" in standard?
Are you 100% sure? :
FIrst of all: there is no pricing date (PRSDT) on invoice header level
Second: I`ve got information from FI that VBRK-KURRF is taken from posting (billing date) VBRK-FKDAT
I have found also programs, there is provided folloving calculation formula:
LV60AA90
Currency conversion (WAVWR is in local currency so far)
        ACTDATE = VBRK-KURRF_DAT.
        IF ACTDATE IS INITIAL.
          ACTDATE = VBRP-PRSDT.
        ENDIF.
        DA_WAVWR_HW = VBRP-WAVWR.
        DA_WAVWR_KW00 = WAVWR_KW00.
        DA_WAVWR_PCVP = WAVWR_PCVP.
LV60A036
Determine date
    IF vbrk-kurrf_dat IS INITIAL.
      ld_kurrf_dat = vbrk-fkdat.
    ELSE.
      ld_kurrf_dat = vbrk-kurrf_dat.
    endif.
So what is the verdict?

Exch rate for cond. PR00 in invoice.

Dear All,
Assume that an item is invoiced for 1 EUR, and it is converted to doc. currency (USD) via an exchange rate.
I don't want to carry out a new pricing, but instead use the one coming from sales doc, but I want to change the exch. rate in condition PR00, calculation of price.
I tried VTFL img but did not help.
Best regards.

Hi Mahmet,
If you want the pricing exchange rate to be copied from the sales order you need to select the option of

Thank u for ur response.Now it is solved when OB40 and OBCN maintained.Here I am facing a new problem.pl. provide the solution.we configured twoseperate pricing procedures for our product and scrap material.We have configured same condition types for VAT(ie.condition type:ZVAT) and CST(cond type:ZCST), in both pricing procedures. Now We want to maintain seperate condition types for VAT and CST for pricing procedure for Product material and Scrap material. I have created two new condition types for scrap sales ZSCT- cst for scrap and ZSVT-vat for scrap by copying the same from existing conditions ZCST & ZVAT, and the same is included in the scrap pricing procedure. And also maintained OB40,OBCN,OVK1,OVK3,OVK4, FTXP,FV11 and VK11.
now I am facing the following problems.
1. while creating the Material master & customer master, in tax category sub screen all conditions i.e. conditions defined for product material( ZCST,ZVAT) and defined for scrap material (ZSCT, ZSVT) displaying and these are compulsory fields.
2. While creating the sale order for scrap material, system is considering the TAX classes from ZVAT/ ZCST (defined for product material) and taking the condition value from the condition type ZSVT/ ZSCT with the TAX class values of ZVAT/ZCST.
Now I would like to know is there any procedure to assign the Material type and Customer group to Tax category.
Thanks & Regards

Posting of Exchange rate differences in parallel currencies

Hello experts,,
We are on ECC 6.
When we enter an incoming invoice with MIRO and the current exchange rate differs from that in the PO, the exchange rate differences in local currency and in parallel currency (group currency) post to different accounts.
Is this a standard feature / behavior? If so, where can i find the settings.
Shouldn't the postings in all currencies (except doc currency), in the event of exchange rate difference post to the same account?
The material ledger is not active.
We have maintained a local currency and a group currency.
Example to illustrate my issue -
DC = JPY
LC = SGD
GC = USD
PO for asset.
PO value = 100000 JPY
Ex rate not fixed in the PO.
Ex rate at PO -
100 JPY = 1.6 SGD
100 JPY = 0.85 USD
Ex Rate at IR
100 JPY = 1.7 SGD
100 JPY = 0.9 USD
When IR is entered,
The exchange rate difference of 100 SGD (@ 0.1 per 100 JPY) is posted to the asset. No posting in USD (though there is a balance of 50 USD).
At clearing (Transaction FB1S - GL account clearing) the exchange rate difference (in GC only, because no balance in LC) of 50 USD (@ 0.05 per 100 JPY) is posted to the Exch. rate difference GL acct.
Thanks in advance for your advice/solution.
B. Regards,
Halaswamy

Hello,
1. You have to assign Forex GL's for the reconciliation accounts in OB09.
2. At the time of payment for incoming invoices, system can read the valuation differences and it will post to Realized Gain/Loss accounts and B/S adjustment account.
3. You can consider this amount to issue bonus to your customers.

BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST with TAX posting for FB60 t-code

Any help on this issue greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
Check out this-
FU BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST
Short Text
Accounting: Posting
Functionality
Using this method you can create a posing in accounting for certain business transactions.
Possible ( Business Transactions):
Postings that generally only affect the general ledger. (RFBU)
Billing: For billing in Sales and Distribution, accounting is supplied with the relevant billing data. (SD00) Billing Document
Accounting can use the data of a logistics system that result from an Invoice Receipt. (RMRP)
Goods Movement are triggered by transactions in Sales and Distribution or by inventory postings. Within logistics, they lead to a change in the warehouse stocks of <DS:GLOS.Inventory Management>Inventory Management. This results in a posting in accounting. This is why accounting is supplied with the relevant data from logistics. (RMWA)
Example
Billing document:
By selling goods in accordance with targets, revenue is generated. The revenue is posted in billing and forwarded to accounting.
Invoice receipt:
Raw materials are purchased in accordance with targets. The invoice receipt is posted in a logistics system. The data from the raw materials is forwarded to accounting.
Goods Movment:
The use of raw materials leads to a change in stock in inventory managment. The posting of raw material consumption is forwarded to accounting.
G/L Account Posting:
Provision posting for an expected warranty service. This can refer to acquisitions or retirements belonging to stocks that are not in subledger accounting relevant to inventory management. This is particularly the case if such materials are not displayed as vendor/customer, materials, loans etc. or cannot be displayed in this way. This can also refer to write-ups or depreciation that contain higher aggregations of values than are maintained in a corresponding subledger that is relevant to inventory management.
The conversion of foreign currencies for receivables/payables due to large exchange rate changes that should not lead to an update of the accounts payable or accounts receivable accounting. A similar transaction can arise for the revaluation of raw materials if this revaluation takes place at a correspondingly aggreagated level.
Reclassification of inventory of P&L statement accounts that are only used for reconcilliation purposes in the general ledger (this rearranges values for balance sheet items).
Balance reclassifications of stocks to receivables with different return times.
Notes
If the parameter CurrencyAmount is filled with the currency fields, a complete document check including characteristics and value components of profitability analysis (CO-PA). Otherwise, the account assignment objects are checked.
Messages are returned in the parameter Return. In the parameter documentation you can find the return values and their meaning.

Error in running F110 with exch. rates?

Hi,
The local currency is INR and the Doc. Currency is USD. I have made settings like House Bank with USD currency, exch. rate settings(ONOT, OB07, OB08, OBBS) and OBA1 and paid the payment to the vendor. System has generated the payment and the check via F110 but when I have checked there is nothing in Foreign Curreny Gain /Loss account and also in FC Clearing a/c. I want to know why and what shall I do so that diffrences should hit the accounts properly.
Also, I have some doubts as I am configuring Exchange Rates for the first time:
1) May be I have to assign the Valuation Area with valuation Method.
2) I have mentioned details in KDF only
3) What is the name of Account that I should assign in "G/L Account" field in OBA1 or OB09 and with what configuration should that G/L be maintaned
4) Do I have to perform any step which is missing in my configuration?
Thanks in advance...
Regards
Nitin

Hi Nitin,
What I can suggest you on this issue is you have to maintain entries under trasnaction key KDB also. There you maintain the accounts to which the automatic posting will post to.
Under KDB you need to enter accounts for exchange rate Loss/Gain, Valuation Loss/Gain, B/S adjustment account, Transalation Loss/Gain accounts, Transalation B/S Adjustment accounts.
In my company we have used two G/Ls - one for Loss & one for Gains. The third G/L we have used as B/S adjustment account.
Now, as soon as you try to clear/post the G/L which you have maintained in KDF will automatically pick the entry from KDB.
Please let me know if it helps!!

PO Condition types exch rate

Dear All,
My company code currency is INR. We have defined a PO with condition types(currency EUR) and maintained the exch rate(different from OB08 rate). While doing GR, system is picking Spot rate (OB08) for Material line items and for condition types, system is taking PO exch rate.
Not able to understand why system is picking different exch rates for material & condition type lines.
Can some one please clarify this?

Translation date for exchange rate type 'M'

Hello friends,
How do I change the translation date for an exchange rate type, for a particular company code?
My client wants the translation date for the exchange rate type 'M' to be document date instead of posting date. It is required as per Romanian Law of land.
Regards,
Mike

Mike,
I assumed your question is for an additional local currency for a company code (this can be changed in OB22). For the first local currency, the translation date type in OB22 is always set to 3 (Translation Date) and cannot be changed (hence, greyed out). Following that, in accounting entry transactions (for example FB01), you will see a field (Translation Date) where you can specify a date for which you want the system to fetch exch. rate from the exch. rate table. In your situation, you will have to enter 'document date' there.
PS: The reply above by Ravi applies only to tax items' translation, not for all items. He is basically talking about the indicator that you see in OBY6.
