MM-IM Currency difference Accounts KDM vs BSX

Hello,
Standard SAP goes on like this for exchange currency differences from MIRO to MIGO (with V price control):
BSX - If I have stock, difference goes directly to it;
KDM - If I don't have stock, difference goes to difference account;
My client has asked me about the possibility of every difference going to KDM account (regardless of quantity in stock). Has anyone had this issue or have some ideas?
Cheers, points waiting.

This is std SAP settings you shoul dnot change that if oyu want to post all the diff to KDM then your price should be set as S stadard price not V moving average
Stock posting (BSX)
This transaction is used for all postings to stock accounts. Such
postings are effected, for example:           
-  In inventory management in the case of goods receipts to own stock       
   and goods issues from own stock                                          
-  In invoice verification, if price differences occur in connection        
   with incoming invoices for materials valuated at moving average          
   price and there is adequate stock coverage                               
-  In order settlement, if the order is assigned to a material with         
   moving average price and the actual costs at the time of settlement      
   vary from the actual costs at the time of goods receipt                                                                               
Because this transaction is dependent on the valuation class, it is         
possible to manage materials with different valuation classes in            
separate stock accounts.                                                                               
Caution                                                                 
Take care to ensure that:                                                   
-  A stock account is not used for any transaction other than BSX           
-  Postings are not made to the account manually                            
-  The account is not changed in the productive system before all           
   stock has been booked out of it                                                                               
Otherwise differences would arise between the total stock value of the      
material master records and the balance on the stock account.               
Exchange rate differences in the case of open items (KDM)                
Exchange rate differences in the case of open items arise when an        
invoice relating to a purchase order is posted with a different          
exchange rate to that of the goods receipt and the material cannot be    
debited or credited due to standard price control or stock               
undercoverage/shortage.

  • Exchange Rate difference account-

    Hi All,
    Please help me to find a solution for the scenario below.
    Business process is third party PO scenario where the vendor currency(USD) is different from ccode currency.
    Material is valuated at 30 EUR.
    PO is made with the vendor at Rs.51.60 USD.(Exchange rate is not fixed at header level in PO)
    GR is made at 51.60 USD
    While doing IR,the exchange rate has changed from 1.290 to 1.395.
    What configuration should be done for the system to post to Exchange rate difference account(transaction key KDM)..
    (As of now the difference in price is posted to the consumption account,Which was already hit during GR).
    Regards,
    Deepak.

    HI DEEPAK,
    If Price control maintained in Material master is " V " then, at MIRO,
    1.  exchange rate diff. will be posted to stock account if available stock qty is >= invoice quantity
    2.  exchange rate diff. will be posted to exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is 0
    3.  exchange rate diff. will be posted propotionately to stock account and exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) ,if available stock qty is <  invoice quantity
    If Price control maintained in Material master is " S " then, at MIRO,
    1.  exchange rate diff. will be posted exchange rate diff acct (as per KDM) i.e. irrespective of stock availability.
    pls, check and revert back

  • Foreign Exchange difference posted to price difference account at MIGO

    Hi,
    We have a problem regarding posting foreign exchange rate difference at the time of GR.
    We are costing materials at the beginning of year, and purchases made during the year as per PIR will result in legitimate price difference which is posted to price difference account.  Thatu2019s working alright.
    Now, due to new business requirement, we maintained PIR in MXN (Mexican peso), & standard cost is converted in local currency USD as per exch. rate maintained in OB08.
    Now, when we do GR, the difference of foreign exchange at the time of Std. cost & GR date is posted to Price difference account instead of foreign exchange account.  For eg. Std .cost of material A is 1000 MXN, and GR cost of material X is also 1000 MXN, however corresponding USD is different because of different foreign exchange rate.
    Will appreciate if someone can suggest on how can we post it to exch.rate diff.account instead of price diff. acct. ?
    Thanks,
    Nirav

    Hi,
    Thanks for your replies.
    We have already maitained exch.rate GL OBYC-KDM, which is successfully posted with the exch.rate diff.arising out of GR & IV at the time of IV.
    I'm talking about price difference in Std. cost & GR value because of exch.rate diff.
    For example, Std cost for Material A is 1000 MXN converted to $100 with exch.rate of 10. Now, GR happens with 1000 MXN converted to $200 with prevailing exch.rate of 5. Please note that std. cost and GR is the same price 1000 MXN, but USD amount is changed resulting $100 gets posted to PRICE DIFFERENCE Account, whereas we want to post it to FOREIGN Exch. diff.A/c becuase it's arising out of exch,rate difference.
    Please let me know if it makes sense.
    Thanks,
    Nirav

  • F-28 Exchange Rate Difference Account with a zero posting

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    When I try to post an incoming payment, even though there are no exchange rate differences, the system post to exchange rate difference account. How to configure the system to stop displaying the exchange rate difference account when the difference is zero.
    Regards,
    Siva

    Dear Siva,
    I dont think that the system will post to exchange rate difference account if there is no difference. Probably you are seeing the doucment in the foreign currency. Try to simulate the entry and on the simulated screen, click on the "Display currency" tab on the top of the entry. That will show the simulated entry in the local currency. In the local currency, there may be some difference.
    Check it and if useful, assign points.
    Regards

  • Ex rate difference account

    Hi Experts,
    We are trying to clear open items through Tcode F-03. At the time of saving, the system is throwing error as Ex. rate difference accounts are incomplete for account xxxxx currency XXX.
    But in all the transaction local currency and accounting currency are the same.
    What could be the reason for this. I have checked OB09 exchange rate difference account has not maintained for the referred account. Since both accounting currency and local currency are same, why system is throwing error. Is there any configuration settings needs to be checked.
    Thanks in advance
    Narayanan

    hi
    You can also check the currency setting of company code in ledger (leading and non-leading), maybe different currency types are used there.
    The path you can refer to IMG: Financial Accounting (New)->Financial Accounting Global Settings (New)->Ledgers->Ledger->Define Currencies of Leading Ledger
    another suggestion is that you can maintain the exchange rate diff account and do the test posting to see whehter system post any document/line item relevant to exchange rate diff.
    Good Luck
    Best Regards, Lawrence

  • MAP Material hit Price difference account

    Hi Experts,
    Need your help urgently.
    I gone through many threads but  i did not got the solution.
    Material Created with Moving average price, while implemented, uploaded the inital stock. Then created one Import PO for the same material in USD and book the delivery cost invoice in USD. Now We are booking the GRN but its going to price difference account. We have blocked price difference account for this material type.
    Please suggest.

    Hi,
       It is standard behavior when stock value in document currency is not equal to the clearing value in document currency. The posting logic is well explained in the note: 191927 - Posting logic: GR for foreign currency PO and  308008 - FAQ: Posting logic: GR/IR clearing account  Question 12

  • Intercompany Sales with Foreign Currency Differences

    We have a scenario using the 2-step intercompany sales process:
    1) Create PO
    2) Create Delivery and PGI
    3) Automatic IDoc Generated for Vendor Invoice
    4) Receive PO via MIGO
    Selling Company currency is USD.  Receiving Company currency is EUR.  Due to the lengthy intransit times (3-4 weeks), when the MIGO is posted, the value converted from EUR to USD, is different than the PGI value (SD invoice) in USD.  The difference is posted to an exchange rate difference account.  However, our business users do not want this exchange rate difference, but wants the value to be constant according to the PGI date.
    We cannot switch back to the one-step PGI and GR process because it affects our APO system.  In GATP, it would show that the inventory is available in the receiving plant, but it is actually still in transit.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to get around this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Can the field Exchange rate fixed in the PO header -> Delivery/Invoice tab be used for your business process?
    You can also check OSS  Note 518114 - FAQ: Goods movements in foreign currency. This note also contains other notes which may help you.

  • Price Difference Account being hit while making AP credit Memo

    Hello Experts,
    Price Difference Account is being hit while creating AP Credit Memo. I am creating an independent AP Credit Memo (i.e. without any base document). After posting A/P Credit Memo when I look at the Journal Entry it shows 99.43% of amount goes to Price Difference Account and the rest 0.57% goes to Stock account.
    Help required please.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Edited by: Shahzad Nazir on Jan 19, 2011 5:54 PM

    Hi Nazir,
    This entry may have resulted because once you created the GRPO say for item A, the stock would have been consumed in production. And once you created Invoice and after that when you created credit memo, the system could not find the stock so it posted the difference in price difference account. Please run inventory posting list of the items in grpo to check the same.
    Thanks,
    Joseph

  • While posting MIRO price difference account is not determimg for price vari

    Hi Sapients,
    Please solve the production issue which we have faced yesterday while doing month end closing
    In one P.O 4 items are there,User has posted entries in below sequence
    Material type is TRADING GOODS
    1)first MIRO with QTY 10 @100$ each,Later
    2)MIGO has done with QTY 10 @100$
    Raw Material account -
    1000$
    to GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
    1000$
    2)User has reverse the MIRO transaction with QTY 10 @ 100$ each.(with refer to step1)
    3)Finally he post MIRO with QTY 10 @ 90$ each, so here ther is no qty variance has come only price variance has come, so when posting the difference is not going to price difference and the entry is paasing like this
    GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
    900$
    TO Vendor 900$
    If u see in step 2 GR/IR having 1000$, but in step 3 while MIRO posting GR/IR as 900$ so for the remaing balance 100$ not going to price variance .I Belive the entry in step will be like this
    GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
    1000$
    TO Vendor 900$
    TO Price difference 100$.
    Kindly give solution why it is not going to price difference it was happening only for item 2 & 3 only for 40 iem it is posting correctly to price difference account.Please advice me why system behavig differently for each item.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Padmasri,
    Thanks for your explanation. Ok. if the price is maintained in S, does that mean the price difference would get posted only to PRD. In other words, if price indicator is V, is that the only time when the price difference gets posted to stock account. In case if there is no sufficient stock or if there is negative stock at that time, that's when the amount would get posted to stock loss or gain account. Please suggest if I've understood the concept right.
    Hi,
    The PRD will trigger when the standard price maintained in the material mater record is different from the price in MIGO . The other chance is the material is maintained with MAP and MIRO done before GR ,The value of the quntity (not available in stock )
    will get posted to PRD. I hope this will resolve your issue. Thanking you
    You had suggested: The other chance is the material is maintained with MAP and MIRO done before GR ,The value of the quntity (not available in stock ) will get posted to PRD. I hope this will resolve your issue.
    You are right: I forgot to mention that the price indicator is V. The other point is we purchase the materials from an internal vendor, as and when the materials are dispatched from the main storehouse in Sri Lanka, there is an advice that is created in the system and that is interfaced and parked in the system. However, normally until the GR is done IV will not happen. But there could be a chance, as the advice gets created within 24 hours. However the material to reach the godown in our warehouse will take more than 24 hours as the goods have to be shipped from SL, so IV is possible before GR.

  • Clearing foreign currency payments against local currency bank account

    Hi all
    We have foreign currency invoices (eg in USD, EUR) and would like to pay these from a AUD domestic bank account. Is this common practice or does the client need to enter such invoices in their external bank specific terminal to process such payments if they have a domestic currency bank account.
    How does the Electronic bank Statement (which is in AUD) clear these foreign currency invoices (EFT clearing account or suspense account). I presume we would have to post to a suspense account clearing and then do a manual post with clearing after loading the bank statement.  However, the amounts do not balance to zero as i cannot clear items off as they are in different document currencies as noted below.
    INVOICE
    cr vendor  100USD   200AUD - cleared by payment program
    dr expense 100USD   200AUD
    PAYMENT PROGRAM
    cr Sus clg 100USD   210AUD
    dr vendor  100USD   200AUD - Cleared by payment program
    dr FX g/l    0USD    10AUD
    ELECT. BANK STATEMENT
    dr Sus clg 205AUD
    cr Cash    205AUD
    What would be the standard approach for such postings from an SAP bank accounting functionality point of view.
    Is there a better way of design the above payment process.

    Hi,
    this is a hard task.
    You have to play with the GL account master data. See documentation for field "Only balances in local crcy". It is quite good described for the clearing in foreign currencies.
    Also I have some doubts that there were settings in FI for foreign currencies clearing, but I have never customize it.
    Hope I helped you (if so... points reward would be highly appreciated )

  • Price difference account posting for return of goods using MR11

    HI SAP Expert
    When we are running MR11 for goods receipt transaction system is posting reversal document to price difference account instead of inventory account.
    In this case relevant details are :-
    Price control for Material is S .
    PO QTY 190( Purchase order is of M category with sales order linked)
    GR qty 190
    IR qty 20
    Return Qty (ACCM) using MR11 :-170
    PO price :-84.74
    Standard price : 81.99
    GR price :-84.74
    When a document is posted using MR11 for reversing goods it has posted value : 14,405.80(170*84.74) to price difference account instead of material account. What could be reason for system behaviour.
    With Regards

  • Query for Price difference account when item is not sold but not on stock

    Hi Experts!
    One of my clients accountant requires a report which will help for what to do with the balance of the price difference account.
    At the and of the year there are some postings on this account, but not every item that hadnt been on stock when A/P Invoice arrived were sold. Some item were waistrel and put into a waistrel warehouse, but not sold.Some item were sent back to the supplier, but not sold.
    Is it possibble to make a query for knowing where to post the balance of the price difference account? Not all should be post to the Cost of goods sold.
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    The query is possible.  However, it is a complicated one. It is also need to involve detailed analysis to your transaction histories.  You may start from OINM table to check.
    Thanks,

    Hi Ganesh
    Thanks for valuable advice, but in our case when i double click PRD, there is only one account is mapped in our chart of accounts, But there is no field for Valuation class, from Account field and to account field,
    only one field is there by nme Account, where in Price difference account is maintained.
    I don't have the option of linking Valuation class with GL Accounts of RM & Semi Finished Materials.
    How can make those fields to be shown in that Screen.
    If  i check for other chart of accounts, it is showing 3 fields
    such as Valuation class, from account no & to account no.
    but for our chart of account only one filed "account" is displayed in the screen.
    Please help me out.
    Thanks & Regards
