Foreign exchange reporting : how to include Inhouse Cash Accounts correctly

Hello,
I want to report the foreign exchange risk position of a mother company (euro based) which is also hosting the inhouse cash center. This means that the foreign currency balances held by the affiliates with the IHC are part of the fx exposure of the mother company. For example, a polish affiliate that has a PLN balance of 1 mio PLN (in favour of the affiliate) means a FX SHORT position for the mother company.
In AISFSS or FTR_DEALPOS you can include Cash Management information. But it makes no sense to include the IHC accounts of the affiliates in the exposure report of the mother company, because the direction of the exposure of the affiliate account is the opposite of the mother company's exposure. i don't want to reprogram CM to inverse the sign.
So, then I thought, ok let' s include the receivables/payables accounts 416xxxx and 439xxx that centralize (via F9HL + F9HI ) the affiliates balances in the FI ledger of the mother company. Unfortunately, these two accounts are not managed in open line item mode. Accountting department does not accept that we cahnge that setting.t The consequence of that being that in the CM grouping I get the countervalue in euro instead of the balances in the respective foreign currencies.
Instead of having the IHC balances aggregated in one Accounts Receivable and one Accounts Payable account, Accounting department would agree to have one G/L account per trading partner/ currency, which would be a perfect reflection of a single IHC account.
I had been told that there would be a T-code (in SAP Inhouse Cash) that allows you to re-split in FI the affiliate balances per currency/trading partner. If this works, then I can pick the currency balances up in original currency via CM grouping.
Does anyone know about this T-code (to split), does anyone have documentation or does anyone have an alternative solution (no ABAP programming).
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,
Yes you can use this report IHC_TOOL_TRAPO (Note number 750700) and do the necessary settings in the corresponding custimizing table. Though I am not sure why you want a separate valuation according to different trading partners. Are they posting to different G/L accounts for different TPs for the account in same currency?
Anyway, you can maintain the setting only for those affialiates having accounts in foreign currency. Also I guess it should be enough if you maintain only for final postings account and not for intermediate postings (provisional) in case if you are having 2 accounts. You can also check in the customizing node mentioned in the previous post - you can use the additional key field and use a custom coding in case if you feel the report is not going to be suffecient.

Ravi

Convert dollars in a spreadsheet to a foreign exchange rate

Is it possible to convert the numbers that I have in U S dollars in a spreadsheet that
I need to convert to a foreign exchange rate.
If possible can someone please let me know or steer me to a web link that has the instructions.
Thank you,
Greg

As jaxjason wrote, we must know a site offering conversion rates to be able to give you an automatic soluce.
Maybe someone is able to trace the way the calculator grabs the conversion rates.
This French site converts returns the value of 1 EURO in dollars.
http://fr.finance.yahoo.com/convertisseur/convert?amt=1&from=EUR&to=USD&submit=C onvertir
but I don't know the way to force it to download in a csv file.
There is a second problem.
The downoaded file is named quotes.csv like the one used to grab the quotes.
It will be necessary to find a way to switch the file treatment given the doc's contents.

Because the rate is different between AP document and Payment document.(No.1 and No.2)
I thought it should only have foreign Exchange gain, but after I did automatical clearing(t-code F.13)
I found the clearing document had a line item on Exchange loss in Document No.3(the second line).
Who know the reason?
Thanks a lot.

Hi
As per the Accounting the entry is right
Dr:AP 0 300 39486 0
Dr:Exchange Loss 0 120 1443 0
Cr:Exchange Gain 0 -280 -27286 0
Cr:Exchange Gain 0 -140 -13643 0
But actual entry should come like this
Dr:AP 0 300 39486 0
Cr:Exchange Gain 0 -200 -27286 0
Cr:Exchange Gain 0 -100 -13643 0
We need to verify why 200 has come as 280 and 100 has come as 140
Can you verify the date which you have done outgoing payment and date which you have done clearing?
may be different dates with different foriegn currency rate

Accounting of foreign exchange gain /loss on imported material at invoice

Dear Experts,
This is with reference to the accounting of foreign exchange gain /loss on imported material at the time of invoice posting.
Presently all the capital expenditure related procurements are done against the WBSE as account assignment. The material is
procured against the project consumption account with WBS as the account assignment. Since the GR is done on day 1
at a particular exchange rate and the material is directly accounted for against the project consumption account,
there is no stock available.
The invoice is received subsequently and the same is accounted for on say Day 4 at another exchange rate, resulting in exchange gain/loss on account of difference in exchange rate between GR and IR. The same is accounted against a cost element with the additional account assignment as WBS derived from the purchase order.
However, the business requirement is to account for the foreign exchange gain/loss against the Cost center, since the
same cannot be capitalized as per the accounting standard.
In spite of maintaining the default cost center derivation against the foreign exchange gain/loss cost element in OKB9,
the invoice document line item is taking the account assignment from purchase order and not from OKB9.
We have referred the SAP note 105024 and implemented the same.
However, as per the note the following is possible "Use a substitution (Transaction OKC9) to transfer a cost center or a
statistical order as auxiliary account assignment to the document or to replace CO account assignment."
But when we are trying to check the same, the system is updating the required CO object i.e. cost center as auxiliary
account assignment and not as a replace CO account assignment.
We are looking at the option of replacing the WBSE with the cost center in the line item for CO account assignment.
Please help in this regard.
Thanks and Regards,
Mohd. Abdul Moghani

GR/IR clearing - Foreign Exchange Loss

Hi Sap Gurus,
My Company code currency is u201CCADu201D and my Group Currency is u201CUSDu201D. I have maintained GR/IR clearing account as u201Conly balances in local currencyu201D
I have done GR in 2008 for 100 CAD. And I have reversed this GR in 2010.
When I am doing the automatic clearing of GR/IR: System is posting an entry of Revaluation loss (from KDF trans type) DR To GR/IR clearing a/c (for 0 CAD and in GL view it is 129 USD)
BSEG table has been updated only with zero but in FLAGLFLEXA I could see 129 USD updated in grup currency .
My question is u2013
1.) why the system is looking for KDF currency when I have maintained u201COnly balance in local currencyu201D for GR/IR clearing account u2013 is that because I have maintained this GR/IR clearing account in OBA1 i.e. for foreign exchange revaluation ?
2.) If it so, does the OBA1 setting overrides the u201COnly balance in currencyu201D in GL master ?
3.) As this is just a clearing transaction, Is it acceptable to book a FX loss on this transaction ? and that to it is just a reversal of an erroneous entry.

Hi Pavan,
You have maintained this account in OBA1 for KDF, that is why it is showing forex differences. The difference is in Group currency currency and not in your company code currency.
So, no problem.

That amount was not match with the delta exchange rate difference on the date of IR is performed and on the date of GR/IR Clearing is performed.
Can anyone inform me what is the probable cause of this incorrect Forex AP-Current calculation? What is the calculation basis that SAP system use to calculate this automatic Forex AP-Current?
Should you require any additional information, please let me know.

In case of foreign exchange collection from Customer through F-28 in partial payment "Exchange Rate Gain" or "Exchange Rate Loss" is not appearing in GL balance simulation or Customer balance report. Only in case of full payment from Customer then "Exchange Rate Gain" or "Exchange Rate Loss" is appearing in GL balance simulation. What is the reason ?

Purchase Price Variance Foreign Exchange difference

How Purchase Price Variance Foreign Exchange difference is calculated for material consumed in product costing / material ledger

You need to go to net price at purchase order in local currency. With quantity you'll get the purchase order total price in local currency.
Get the standard price of material master record (which is in purchase order) on MM03 transaction on costing 2 view.
Purchase price variance is the difference between purchase price order and material standard price.
To get this difference in foreing currency, you´ll need to get document date of purchase order, get exchange rate at OB08 and find both prices in foreign currency; after that get same way the variance.
Hope that helps,

Purchase price variance-Foreign exchange
