Purchase transaction with different exchange rate in GRPO and A/P Invoice

Question

Hi, can someone help me with this situation.
My Local Currency is USD with INDIRECT exchange rate posting.
I'm using perpetual inventory method.
I recorded GRPO in FC (IDR) when the exchange rate is 10.000/usd.
The GRPO created this JE:
Debit :Inventory  FC=100.000 ; LC=10
Credit :Unbilled Payable  FC=100.000 ;  LC=10
When I record A/P Invoice, the exchange rate is 11.000/usd.
The A/P Invoice created this JE:
Debit : Unbilled Payable   FC= 110.011 ; ; LC= 10
Debit : Inventory              FC=  -10.011 ; ; LC=  -0,91
Credit:     Vendor             FC= 100.000 ; ; LC=    9,09
Is this JE correct?
I have no objection about the Inventory and vendor balance.
But i'm confused with the unbilled payable balance. Yes, it have 0 balance in LC. But it still have balace in FC.   
Should i ignore the FC balance?
Thanks for the support....

Answer 1

Arin,
If you have a development company test this.....
use:
Financials>Exchange Rate Differences
Check Business Partner and uncheck G/L Accounts
Enter Code from To
enter Excecution Date
Make sure you have all your Exch Accounts set
and Execute
Have a look at the outcome, it may help, it would be better then having a balance in FC me thinks!
Kind Regards,
Ben
