OB08 Help description and quotation during billing

Hi all,
Can anyone explain me the help "F1" in OB08 as highlighted below:
Direct quoted exchange rate
This field contains an exchange rate according to the direct quotation method. The exchange rate gives the price in the "to" currency that you have to pay for a unit (10, 100,...) of "from" currency.
If the field content is highlighted (usually in red), then you have set the indirect quotation method of exchange rate entry for that currency pair in Customizing.
The rates are in my OB08 is higlighted in RED. Is there any "Customizing" here?
The issue is, in Sales Order, the rate used is the Direct Quote.  While during billing, it is using the indirect quote (i.e. /1.4500).  When a report is generated, the amount has a negative sign "-" and the user is confused on this sign.
Confusing also is that this happens randomly.  The billing doc sometimes use direct quote and sometimes the indirect quote.
The local curr is USD and the doc curr is SGD.
Regards,
Eric

Hi Nuke,
Regarding your 1st question "If the field Content is highlighted (usually in red), then you have set the indirect quotation method of exchange rate entry for that currency pair in Customizing"
It implies that for a particular pair of currency the Standard quotation for exchange rates is maintained as Indirect Quotation (Value 2).
For Example
ExRt  Valid From   Indir. Quot __  Ratio(from)  From    Dir.quot.__ Ratio(to)  To
M       01.12.2009 ________  X              1        AUD  = 0,96000 X  1             GBP.
In the above exchange rate the value 0.96000 is red.
Now when we check the Standard quotation for exchange rates in SPRO.
Path ---> IMG>>General Settings>>Currencies>>Define Standard Quotation for Exchange Rates we see that for that particular pair of currency the following is maintained.
From To   Valid From   Quotation
AUD GBP 01.01.2009 2 Indirect Quotation
Hence the value comes Red in Colour. Try changing the settings to 1Direct Quotation and check.
Hope this helps.

  • Match the COGS during delivery and Cost during Billing

    Hi All
    We have a Kit Scenario with below parameters
    Sales BOM is created
    Header Material is Valuated but non-inventorised
    Component Material is Valuated and inventorised
    In Sales order, Pricing is done at the header material not at the components level
    During delivery components are consumed..
    During Billing we get only the Cost for the header material (cost coming from Header material master standard price) as billing i sodne only at header
    The cost estimate will be run to roll up the component cost to header material standard price.
    We need to check if COPA consumption (Header Cost) match with FI consumption (inventory balance for component consumption) every month end. We need to get the actual COGS during delivery in the COPA document during billing.
    This is a concern if component is changed during delivery then we will not be able to reconcile FI and CO during month end. We were thinking of creating a new statistical value field to capture this.
    Thanks in adavnce for the help
    Regards
    Neeraj

    Looks like you want to pass the cost of header item as well as components (in a separate value field) to COPA. I suppose you are looking to consolidate the cost of components in one value field.
    Verify whether using exit COPA0001 you get an access to reference delivery document and item against which the billing document is getting created. You can then update the total cost of delivery document item and update it in this separate value field.

  • Need Help : Description and thumbnail problem

    Hello everybody,
    When I try to put my website on facebook. I have a description and a thumbnail generated by default. Are you able to tell me where I can look in the software (adobe muse) to edit this information.
    See picture attached.
    Thank you

    You'd need access to the source files along with the source code.  Facebook may not hand-off that information. But, let's say they do and you gain access to the source files.  You would then target the element(s) that are used for the button(s) and then modify them or replace them with your own.  The code text would then be replaced ( typically all this could be found in the CSS files ) with your own.  But, odds are you won't be able to do it through Facebook.  Have you tried contacting them ( customer support ) for options?

  • Im looking for a good note app with pen for taking notes ( in english and german )during business trips. Can anyone help

    I'm looking for a good note app with pen function for taking notes ( in English and German ) during business trips. Can anyone help?

    Really sorry to hear about this, particularly when you're putting your life on the line. But Apple cannot track your iPhone in any way unless you had set up Find My iPhone prior to it being lifted.
    It's possible that AT&T might be able to do something, but it's probably that they cannot track it, or will not without a request from an authorized law enforcement agency, but rather would only disable the device. You'll have to try and find a way to contact AT&T directly and ask if they can do anything to help you; the chances of any AT&T employee in a position to help you spotting this thread it pretty small.
    Good luck, stay safe, and come home soon.

  • My AppStore wont update my apps because my old iTunes account keeps coming up and asks for billing info HELP!!!

    My AppStore wont update my apps because my old iTunes account keeps coming up and asks for billing info HELP!!!

    Apps are always associated with the Apple ID that was used to purchase them. This cannot be changed. To avoid getting the request you are seeing delete all apps that request the former Apple ID and download them again.
    Any apps for which you paid a fee will require that you purchase them again.

    Hello. i'm trying to Redeem my account with a 25GBP ITunes card and it says it must be used on a UK Store Front. Can someone help as my account is billed in USDollars

    What it's telling you is correct. Gift cards are valid only in the country in which the card was issued. You cannot use an iTunes card issued in the UK in a US iTunes Store account. Give or sell the card to someone who can use it in the UK.

  • Enable field exchange rate during billing

    hi,
      where can i configure that the field 'exchange rate' is enable during billing creation (VF01)
    thanks in advance...
    she

    Dear She,
    I just had the same requirement last week and I would like to share my solution.
    1st of all enabling Exchange Rate Field is possible with the help of ABAPers but it is not advisable...
    2nd thing is I assume that u maintain Exchange Rate in OB08 regularly as per requirement.
    Now you have 2 options..
    1) You can cancel the Billing Document and then change the Exchange Rate in Sales Order and again create Billing Document (B'coz Exchange Rate flows from Sales Order)
    2) In Billing Document Exchange Rate can be redetermined based on your settings in VTFA or VTFL Copying Controls (Field is PricingExchRate type)
    So if you have maintained Exchange Rate in OB08 system will redetermin it based on PricingExchRate Type Field.
    If you have maintained in this field "C" - Exchange rate determination according to billing date
    then if you will change Billing Date in Header tehn Exchange Rate will also get changed according to your OB08. But make sure that Billing Document is not yet posted into FI.
    Hope this wil help..
    Regards,

  • Change the Pricing Type during billing

    We are facing an issue with the rebate conditions which needs to be resolved asap..
    User has created a credit memo request in VA01.
    Credit memo request is created for the change in the Price.
    (Note: Order reason for such specific credit memo requests is ZXX (e.g.))
    Due to price change rebate accruals value is also reduced in proportion to the reduced price.
    The rebate accruals should not be reduced in this case, since there is no material return and rebate condition is quantity based.
    As a solution to this u2013
    We created a new routine AAA and assigned to the rebate condition types in Pricing procedure.
    This routine will function when order reason entered in the Credit memo request is ZXX.
    Therefore all the rebate condition types (assigned with routine AAA in Pricing) will get deactivated in Order Conditions tab.
    This is working correctly in creating credit memo (VA01).
    The issue is u2013
    When the credit memo is created in VF01, these rebate condition types are again activated and accruals are posted.
    This should not happen. Pricing from the CM request (VA01) should get copied in Credit memo (VF01) completely. The same issue
    with VF02..
    Please  suggest a user exit in which the pricing type can be changed during billing..Tried coding in the form
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP in RV60AFZZ by changing the Pricing Type KNPRS..But didnt work out..
    Is there any way to meet this requirement. I have checked the user exit RV61AFZA having two forms:
    FORM USEREXIT_PRICING_RULE &
    FORM USEREXIT_PRICING_COPY.
    I would be interested to know how this can be  coded to meet the requirement. Coding displayed will be of great help to
    implement.
    Any pointers / solutions to the issue will be highly appreciated..

    Hello Sean
    1) Firstly I don't think the Credit Memo for this case or any case in your situation should be relevant to rebate.  That's becasue your rebate is tied to quantity.  So you should deactivate rebate processing for that Billing Doc type. T Code OVB0. That should close the issue.
    2) Pricing type 'D' in copy control from sales to Billing documents should ensure that Pricing from the CM request (VA01) gets copied in Credit memo (VF01) completely. Why do you need user exits for that? T code VTFA.
    3) If you need to change pricing type selectively for some conditions, then you should configure the condition type with condition category X,Y or Z ( Customer Reserve) and then use USEREXIT_PRICING_RULE (module pool SAPLV61A, program RV61AFZA to ensure that those conditions are copied (or otherwise) from source. But I don't think you need this.

  • No Customer debit during billing

    Dear Experts,
    Is there anyway to to debit certain GL instead of customer during billing  on the basis of payment terms or something else ?
    Thanks
    Ram

    Hello Ram,
    Discuss with SD consultant based on billing type you can derive GL account getting debit instead of customer. The follwoing customization settings can help you.
    SPRO > Sales and distribution > Basic functions > Account assignment / costing > Cash account determination.
    VOFA settings also change as per account determination logic.

  • Copying STO PO pricing condition to Billing During Billing creation

    Hi,
    MM and SD pricing conditions are not similar.
    And I cant use Copy PO Basic price in billing Document
    I was advised to try USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP or USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK.
    How do I copy the Pricing condition from the STO PO to Billing during billing creation?
    Is there an FM i can use to extract the pricing condition given the STO PO?
    thanks,
    NC

    Hi
    If the option of Raghavendra doesn't work for you (parameters in copy rule for invoice), try with VOFM subroutines (Condition formula for alternative calculation type) in the pricing procedure. Surely it will be slower, but it must work. How? You have in KOMP the values for VGBEL and VGPOS with the delivery number and item. So, seach the PO number in the same way. When you have the PO number, with the value of field KNUMV search the value of condition in table KONV.
    I hope this helps you
    Regards
    Eduardo
    PD: I forgot. The userexits that you mention is to populate KOMP/KOMK for customer fields. See SAP Note 531835 - Using field PSTYV in the condition access for futher information.

  • Accounting determination simulation during billing

    Hello Friends,
      We have a business requirement to simulate account receivables before releasing to accounts during billing document save.   In standard, we can check account entries only after billing document save. Hence Could you please suggest -
