Parallel currencies in KOB1 and KSB1

KOB1 and KSB1 only display 3 currencies:
Controlling Area currency
Transaction currency
Object currency
In my client, there are 3 parallel currencies in FI:
local currency = CAD for company code A, USD for company code B as examples
group currecny = CAD for company codes A & B
index currecny = USD for company codes A & B
and CO Area=group currency=CAD
Scenario:
Company code A incurs costs in CAD that are backcharged to company B.
The user is able to view the equivalent index currency using FBL3N.
However, for purely CO transaction in CAD, like cost allocation to another cost center or internal order, the user is not able to see the equivalent index currency in USD.
Is there a configuration step to be done to allow users to view FI parallel currencies in purely CO transactions like CO allocations?
pls advise.
thanks!!!

Defined target currency=USD in the CO Acctg User Settings

Program RKAEP000 (KOB1 and KSB1)

Hi,
i have to copy the program RKAEP000 and create one new transaction. The selection screen of this program will have both KOB1 and KSB1 transaction screens (Order and Cost Centre). the output should be same as KOB1 if order is entered and if cost centre is entered it must be output of KSB1.
How to do this....

Have you an answer on this request ?

ABAP Query (Transaction KOB1 and KSB1)

Hallo Friends,
I want to generate a query which will consist of some selected columns of the output list of the transactions KOB1 and KSB1 together. Using F1 and F9 to check the Table Fieldname where the contents of the list where selected, has not been so helpful because the contents where from SAP Structures.
Can someone tell me the Tranparent tables (not structure) from where I can generate the query, which will include the contects of the list outputs of the above transactions ??
Please see the select-options of the above transactions too.
Blacky.

Hello Blacky,
Both transaction codes are attached to rpeort RKAEP000.
Report RKAEP000 utlimatly uses FM K_LINE_ITEMS_SELECT_AND_LIST to select the data and display.
So, put a break-point at the this FM in the report RKAEP000 to check what are the inputs being given to the FM in both T-codes.

Display parallel currency values with KSB1.

Hello,
My local and CO currencies are both set to USD. I have a hard currency of MXN. With KSB1, if the document is entered in local currency (USD), is there a way to display the corresponding hard currency value?
If the document is posted in hard currency, I have no trouble displaying it in USD (local currency) by bringing in the field Val. in Rep. Curr.
Thank you

Exactly is what i said.
Your example
USD is Cotrolling aea currency
MXN is Transaction currency
As the MXN is Transaction currency here, you can bale to see the values.
but normally, the MXN is Hard currency which is 3rd currency.
So, the report KOB1 shows you only
CO Area currency
Transaction currnncy and
Object currency, which could be your local corrnecy
Check the below reports
S_ALR_87013010 - Orders: Breakdown by Period
S_ALR_87012993 - Orders: Actual/Plan/Variance
S_ALR_87012997 - List: Cost Elements by Order
S_ALR_87013002 - Orders: Quarterly Comparison - Actual
S_ALR_87013015 - List: Actual Debit/Credit

Parallel currency and Parallel ledger activation

Dear all,
In one of our client places, they have done the parallel currency and parallel ledger activation in the middle that is after 1 month of go live. Because of this they are not able to clear the already posted documents. When they try to clear, all the documents are going to dump. Please suggest what has to be done.
Thanks & Regards,

Paralle ledger activation in the middle of the year is very dangerous for the previously posted open items.
At the time of clearing system try to post the entries in the parallel ledgers. But parallel ledger not available in the previous postings.
It will result adverse results in most of the transactions.Please check and take necessary action

Parallel Currencies and Depreciation areas

Hi all
I have a simple question. When we maintain multiple currencies for a company code, what are the requirements for maintaining depreciation areas? Do we need to maintain a seperate depreciation area per currency? I am unsure of the link between multiple currencies and depreciation areas.
Need ur expert help to help me understand this better.
Thxs in advance.
Hrishi

HI
Any Depreciation Posting should automatically post to all the currencies that are active for a company code. In your case Parallel currency. Depreciation area has no link to the currency.

Purchase price variance line item - not to be posted in Parallel currency

Hi All,
Scenario:
Transaction currency - SGD
Local Currency - INR
Parallel Currency 1 (LC2) - Group currency - USD
Parallel Currency 2 (LC3) - Global Company currency - INR
Import PO - MIGO - MIRO
PO is raised in foreign currency.
Material master price control is maintained in 'S'.
While doing MIGO, I am getting following accounting entries:
Stock a/c Dr.
GR/IR a/c Cr.
Price variance* a/c Dr.
*The price varaince is because of difference in my material price as per material master and PO.
If I go and check in FBL3N, I can see all the line items in Transaction, Local currency and 2 Parallel currencies.
My query is, In SAP is it possible to avoid Price variance line item posting to Parallel currencies.
To my knowledge I know that it is not possible to avoid a single line to post it to Parallel currencies.
Thanks in advance.

This is the answer from OSS
Dear Customer,
the system works as designed.
When Material Ledger is activated, price differences are always
generated under the circumstances you have described. The reason is
that when material ledger is activated, price differences must not be
included into the stock changes value, otherwise the system would
not be able to calculate an actual price.
When Material Ledger is activated, the customizing setting
for handling price differences in the subcontracting process has no
effect.

Issue with Asset Managemenet (parallel Currencies)

This message is from my customer:
Capital investments are kept in Asset Managemenet (FI-AA), balances are integrated part of FI-GL, shown on respective accounts.
Within AM, multiple valuation areas exists, as an asset underly different rules, depending of it's accounting (book) value and tax value etc.
Therefore, we have one area (01) representing the book value, - which is also the GL-balance. In addition, AM keep another area (10) representing the tax value.
Finally, we have a third area representing the difference between Tax and book, (called 'delta'), and these values are posted to GL as 'more/less depreciation', enabling us to report both 'Accounting books' and 'Norwegian tax books'. This 'delta posting' is part of standard, monthly depreciation run.
We have a challenge in the case were we have USD as functional currency, in an entity registrated as Norwegian a/s.
Norwegian tax authorities require the tax values of the depreciation to be based on historical NOK-investments. Both FI-GL and FI-AA support the parallel currency
accounting, but not when it comes to the handling of the 'delta-values'. In this case, the initial investments are kept in histotical NOK in AM, and in AM the NOK-investment is depreciatied in the tax area. However, when the delta-posting is done, this is done in USD only (based on area 01 and 10), and the parallel NOK-value of this transaction is translated based on exchange rate on transaction date, NOT the historical NOK-value. The consequense of this is that the tax-books in NOK is incorrect, and there is a need to do manual adjustments, based on tiresome spreadsheet calculations.
Now: is this the only way SAP handles parallel currencies in AA/AM? No way to configure it to use historical exchange rates at all?
If this cannot be changed within SAP, has anyone else solved this kind of problem and might help me getting started?

Hello!
Does someone have answers to this:
From SAP Help:
The central procurement and processing of data for an asset takes place
in the logical database ADA in the FI-AA component. One of the functions
that is carried out in the database is currency translation. Currency
translation for a currency that is different from the company code
currency is carried out according to a translation method that you
define in FI-AA Customizing.
Where do i find this customising?
If the parameters of this standard translation method do not meet your
needs, you can define your own individual translation method using this
SAP enhancement.
Activities
Follow the procedure outlined below:
<b>
1. Activate enhancement project AMGS_001.
2. Modify function module EXIT_SAPLAMGS_001. Enter your own code in the
    included program ZXBADU03.
    When the enhancement project is active, the system uses the function
     module at the corresponding positions in the logical database.
3. Define a translation method in FI-AA Customizing (Information
      System) that uses translation date 3 (own translation).
</b>
Parameters
The following transfer parameters are available for function module
EXIT_SAPLAMGS_001:
o   I_AMOUNT (amount in local currency)
o   I_ANLAV (master data for the asset)
o   I_AFABER (depreciation area)
o   I_BERDATUM (report date)
o   I_UMVAR (translation method)
The translated amount is expected as a return value in the field
E_AMOUNT. This value is then transferred to the respective report.
This looks promissing But has anyone tried this exit, EXIT_SAPLAMGS_001?
Will it work for me?

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.

Parallel currencies in Asset

Hello
In our case Legal valuation & Profit Centre valuations are active with currency INR. In the Depreciation areas for Asset account, I have copied reference 0IN and I have kept two depreciation areas 01 (book) & 15 (tax). However, while trying to post in Asset accounting, system is giving error:
" Company code 1000 manages parallel currencies in Asset Accounting. For each area that posts automatically online to FI, you have to define one dependent depreciation area that adopts both identical values and depreciation terms from depreciation area 01, and which is assigned to currency type 12 and currency INR. There is no depreciation area of this type defined for depreciation area 01."
I am not able to get which depreciation area I should maintain for this in the Chart of Depreciation. Please help me.

Hello,
You got the error message AC496 because your company code is defined with additional local currency(ies) in FI (see table T001A).
As the message AC496 states, in this case you have to define one   dependent depreciation area that adopts both identical VALUES and   depreciation TERMS from depreciation area 01, and which is assigned to currency type 12 and the currency.
Asset Accounting > Valuation > Currencies > Specify the Use of Parallel Currencies
Check if the Chart of Depreciation (which is assigned to your company code) has no depreciation area which is assigned to another currency type.
Make sure that the 'idetical' flag has been on for your specific depreciation area.
T093A like it should be, when depreciation area XX should be the parallel depreciation area:
AFABE WRTAFB PARAFB XWRTID XINDID AFARFO XUMHIS CURTP
01     00     00                                               ZZZZ
15     01     00                                               ZZZZ
XX    01     01          X      X                           ZZZZ   X                 12
You need definetely one area with currency type 12.
Otherwise you cannot post anything to asset books.
Best regards Bernhard

Hi Venkat,
Create a New Depreciation area with APC Values and Depn values identical to Value 01.
Then goto valuation> currencies
Specify the Use of Parallel Currencies> and assign the currency type and valuation view to the new depn area. tick the identical values
then goto

Parallel currency in company code require material ledger activation

Hello,
I have a requirement where the company is using parallel currency in NEWGL concept with two different currencies INR and USD.
I want to have a clarification whether I Need to activate Material ledger with parallel currency.
1. Company is using parallel currency with only one legal valuation view.
2. There is no requirement for product costing in the company.
Can the balance in general ledger can be seen in both currency for inventory balances.
Awaiting for your inputs
Thanks

If you don't need parallel currency at present, there's no need to configure it. Why should that be a problem, as long as your Business needs are not relevant to using a parallel currency?
I suspect your actual query is details regarding the future problems that you might face when, faced by changed Business scenarios, you are forced to introduce parallel currency at a future date
If my suspicion is correct, I suggest you look at SAP Note 39919. It's an old note - but one that I've found contains quite relevant tips and tricks about introducing parallel currency in a productive environment.
Remember to assign points if found useful.

Material master upload with Parallel currency

Hi,
I have done a good research on this forum to solve my issue. Could not find any and hence starting a new post. Hope to find a solution. Helpful answers will be rewarded.
Our company is using Parallel Currency (Hard Currency).
Whenever a material is created, the Hard currency is calculated automatically in Accounting 1 view
My query is:
While uploading the material master using RMDATIND, is there any way we can overwrite the Hard currency? I could not find any suitable fields to fill this value.
Alternatively i am thinking of using BDC on MM02 to change the Price unit and BDC on MR21 to change the standard price of the hard currency. Which seems very cumbersome.
Any good solution will be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Default Exchange rate type at document type level for parallel currencies

Hi,
I have a scenario wherein 2 parallel currencies have been maintained (Grp & index based) against a Co Code and have maintained a default exchange type (Z2) in the Document type settings (OBA7).
But when I want to post a foreign currency document, system picks Z2 rates for Co Code currency conversion and not for Grp & index based. In fact it picks M rate for these addtional currencies.
I know that for parallel currencies, the system will always use the exchange rate type defined in transaction OB22 ( "M" rate) which is at Co Code level but I want default exchange rate type Z2 to be picked at Document Type level for all the parallel currencies.
Please suggest how to archive this.
Thanks,
Sam

Dear Sam,
The exchange rate type defined in the FI document type (-> field
exchange rate type in transaction OBA7) is only used for the currency
translation from transaction/document currency into first local
currency, not for the currency translation into second local (group)
currency or for the currency translation into third local currency.
The exchange rate types for the currency translation into second
local (group) currency and third local currency are defined in
transaction OB22.
Unfortunately there is no option to change the exchange rate of 2nd or
3rd local currency in our posting transactions. The design doesn't
regard that requirement. But you have the chance to adjust the parallel
currencies in OB22 or to change the amounts manually.
I hope this helps.
Mauri
