OBYC - KDM Ex differ. account

Hi all,
When i created a invoice in reference to a PO, i encountered a error, stating account determination need to be done done in OBYCtrans key  KDM for the particular plant. As per this, I changed the setting of OBYC in trans key KDM. Now this this issue was resolved. later to this i again encountered an error stating, the GL account conf in the OBYC trans key KDM need to be extended as a cost element.
I cant understand the logic behind this. Can you help me out in this.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
in OBYC kdm is for material management exchange rate diff. this means that this transaction key is used if there is import scenario.
in this case the exchange rate of indian rupees with the foreign currency can be diff during the payment and invoice receipt.
the loss or profit of the exchange rate is directly posted to the loss on forex if there is loss and profit on forex if there is profit and these accounts are created in gl accounts.
and you can create these transactions in co through cost elements which is your profit elemets or loss elements
so you have to edit the cost element in the respective gl accounts using in kdm and give any co object like order,cost object,cost center,activity type.
hope this will resolve your porblem.

  • Exch rate diff account for open item management recently checked accounts

    Hi all,
    I have recently activated open item management for certain gl accounts.
    i post only local currency transactions in that gl and gl account ,aster data is also in compnay code currency.
    So no foreign currency is involved here.
    But when i try to clear line items for those gl accounts , system is showing an error and asking me to maintain exchange rate diff accounts in OBA1 (KDF).
    But i dodnot understand why i need to maintain foreign currency diff accounts when there is no foreign currency involved.
    When i post any new entry after open item management is activated, system allows me to clear these line items without any error.
    So i think the problem is only with line items where open item management activated recently,
    Could any one help in this.
    Thank you,
    Siva Kumar D

    Hi
    May be this is because of the additional currencies define for that particular company code, if any difference in the exchange rate at the time of clearing system looks for the difference in ex.rate account. In this case, you have to maintain the GL in OBA1 (KDF)

    If there is a Price difference then that will be known through PRD account..
    Instead of avoiding PRD, you should see that there will not be any Price difference..
    Basing on PRD the client will be able to know the fluctuation in price...

  • OBYC KDM, KDW, KDV and KDR operations

    Hi,
    I have a problem with differenciating the following OBYC operations:
    - KDM - I think it should be used for GR/IR exchange rate differences /
                or is it used for Material Ledger Single level exchange rate differences
    - KDR - I think it should be used for GR/IR exchange rate rounding differences
    - KDV - I think it should be used for Material Ledger Multi level exchange rate differences
    - KDW - is it used for GR/IR exchange rate differences?
    If you could please tell me which operations shoud be used for Material Ledger exchange rate differences for single and multi level.
    Best wishes,
    Karol

    Differences due to exchange rate rounding, Materials Management (KDR)
    An exchange rate rounding difference can arise in the case of an invoice made out in a foreign currency. If a difference arises when the posting lines are translated into local currency (as a result of rounding), the system automatically generates a posting line for this rounding difference.
    Exchange rate differences from lower levels (KDV)
    In multi-level periodic settlement in the material ledger, some of the exchange rate differences that have been posted during the period in respect of the raw materials and semi-finished products used in the manufacture of a semi-finished or finished product are debited or credited to that semi-finished or finished product.
    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.

  • OBYC changes in automatic account assignment

    Hi
    I've a question.
    We have configured automatic account assignment under BSX in OBYC with say, GL1.
    Now we observed that, it has changed to GL2 by mistake. Now we need to set it back to GL1.
    Will system automatically assign all the transactions to the changed GL (i.e from GL2 to GL1), meaning the old transactions as well, or we need to pass a JV for the rectification of the balances to the correct GL.
    Please advise.

    What must be the rectifying action for this?? Since this is a huge balance and Finance dept is not allowing to pass a JV with such a huge balance for audit reasons.
    Plz suggest from MM side what can be done coz reversing and re-posting the whole thing is not possible since its time consuming activity.

  • OBYC and OB40 - VST Account Key

    Dear All,
    In OBYC we have VST T/E key and G/L account is assigned for posting. IN OB40 also we have VST key with different G/L account.
    What is the difference between these two and when these will get triggered?
    Could you please help me in this regard.
    Rgds
    Raul

    Hi Rahul,
    If you see, the G/L Account maintained at OBYC/VST and OB40/VST are same. Both lead to same G/L account in a scenario where you give a Input Tax in MIRO and tick Calculate Tax.
    The only difference between these two transactions is a Group.
    Different Procedures (Ex. Input tax, Purchase Tax1) in which accounts and/or posting keys are determined for making automatic postings are grouped by business perspective.

  • Sharing music between diff accounts on 1 computer - what am i doing wrong?

    Hi,
    Can someone please help me out? I've just bought an iPod shuffle for my daughter and already have iTunes set up for myself using my own iPod (using Windows XP). Now I want to make all the music I've previously set up in iTunes available to her account.
    So I followed the instructions in "How to share music between different accounts on a single computer" (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93195) but when I log on to the other account and start up iTunes, I can't see the music I've copied over. Any ideas why?
    I basically copied the "iTunes Music" folder to "C:Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Music\iTunes\ then opened iTunes on the other account and changed the location via the Edit menu, Preferences, Advanced, Change button. When I do this I can see the underlying folders of music, it just doesn't show up in the iTunes Music Library within iTunes. I've also tried copying the iTunes library files in desperation, but that made no difference.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Adam.

    If you copied these files to her iTunes directory, you certainly should have seen music in her library when opening iTunes. I suspect that even if you copied these files, when you launched iTunes it was using a different copy of these. Where did you put them? By default, they would be in her ..\My Music\iTunes folder. You can put them anywhere you want, but you have to tell iTunes which one to open. Try this:
    1- Re-copy your files to a known folder that is accessible from her account.
    2- Log into her account, press and hold the Shift key while you start iTunes.
    3- At the "Choose Library or Create Library" prompt, select "Choose Library".
    4- Navigate to where you put the "iTunes Library.itl" file from step #1.
    This forces her iTunes to use the specific iTunes Library.itl file and should now display the same library that you see in your own iTunes.

  • Returning to home screen from inbox and accesing diff account.

    Hi,
    I have set up 6 different email accounts on my iPhone. In order to access inbox 1, selected Mail -> Accounts - > Inbox from there I can directly go to home screen by pressing HOME button.
    My question is next time, when I click on Mail its going to Inbox 1 where i had left earlier. Is there any way where I can go to accounts instead of going to inbox1?
    Another question is instead of going to check 6 different inboxes, is there any way to get all the new emails under one place? In blackberry phones u can check all different accounts mails under one place.
    Thanks

  • Question about locking certain folders w/diff.accounts?

    I'm about to let my girlfriend use my Mac, so I made a seperate account for her. I just don't want her going through all of my files and " stuff ". Is there anyway to lock certain folders in my account? I tried using parental controls but didn't find the file I wanted to Lock in the options.

    Hi Aaron
    When your girlfriend is logged in on her account your folders are locked to her. Your Home folders are only accessible from your account.

  • Some amounts was posted to Price Diff Account even tho there was no price d

    Hi Experts,
    Users have a few AP Invoice which they have some typo, thus they canceled it by copying the whole invoice to AP Credit Note (w/o changing anything).
    But when they try to cancel it, it says u201CGL Account is missingu201D.
    After I try to search high and low for this GL Account, I couldnu2019t find anything. Thus I asked the users to u201CRight click > Duplicateu201D the rows in the AP Credit Note (delete the original), and then I was able to add it successfully OK.
    But after the AP Credit Note is added, we checked back the JE posted by system, we realized some amount was posted to the u201CPrice Difference Accountu201D (which is not correct, because there was no price differences between the invoice and cn at all).
    Have you experienced smth like this before?
    Warmest Regards,
    Chinho

    Hi Chin,
    The target Document uses the same G/L accounts than the Base Document, and maybe the G/L account was entered in the Account Determination after the Invoice was added.
