Valuation of foreign exchange forward with NPV split for interest vs FX impact?

Hello,
I have the following business requirement regarding the accounting treatment of the valuation of a foreign exchange forward deal :
1. during the lifetime of the deal
step1. valuation
          the deal should valued at its NPV using the swap points curve (table AT15) => that gives the "VALUE"
     BUT
step 2. the posting of the deal's value should be SPLIT into TWO components
               a) component 1 = linearly amortized swap points since deal date +2   until valuation date     => to be classified to interest result
               b) component 2 = VALUE - component 1                                                                                => to be classified to unrealized fx result
Comment.
So, in fact it is some hybrid combination of the two SAP standard valuation methods
               a) spot/spot + swap accrual + swap valuation (but NO NPV calculation)
               b) NPV calculation (without any split in components)
2. at maturity
     realized fx result :     calculation based on deal spot rate versus spot rate at maturity
     interest result :          calculation based on deal spot rate vs deal forward rate
Don't see how this "mixted behavior" can be achieved by customizing the valuation process.
Please help.
Best regards,
Carl

Hi Carl,
In order to use the 2step valuation during the lifetime of forex contracts, you need to combine 2 valuation steps in your Position Management Procedure:
1. step 6 Rate valuation for forward exchange transactions: spot-spot
2. step 4 Security valuation
Additonally, if the NPV should be calculated based on swap points from AT15, you need to apply BAdI JBA_SFGDT that is able to adjust TPM60 or/and reports in MRA if needed. See SAP note 0000940562 for details (and also 1941874 for extrapolation issues).
As far as i know, at maturity you can only have 1flow of gain/loss by using standard SAP Solution.

Problem when creating contract with foreign trade / customs

Hi,
I encountered a problem when creating contract / outline agreement.
I used ME31K to create a contract with a vendor outside of our country. I suppose that I should be able to see "Foreign Trade / Customs" in "Header" menu, but this entry is gray, I cannot enter it.
I tried to create a scheduling agreement using ME31L with the same vendor and material, I can see "Foreign Trade / Customs" information. I suppose these two process are similar, aren't they?
Btw., I checked the master data according to this thread:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/ed/3b6cc697e711d1b4e20000e82d81b0/content.htm
Can anyone give me some hint?
Thanks!
Charlie

These two processes are different:
The Contract agreement or the Outline Agreement is that create the centrally contract (cross-plant) where it can maintain different pricing conditions for each and every plant. It creates the Release Order with reference to Outline Agreement. No detailed delivery schedule can be made in the Release Order. No Release documentation is created. Only time-dependent conditions can be created, Some Item Category 'M' and 'W' can be used.
Whereas the Scheduling Agreement is the Plant Location what must be entered in the Scheduling Agreement. Its no need to create any other purchasing document except for delivery schedule line via Transaction ME38 or MRP running (with the appropriate setting of Source List). Delivery Schedule line items are created subject to your specific requirement. It can create both Scheduling Agreement with or without release of Documentation (subject to the Document Type LP or LPA) with the selection of either FRC or JIT delivery schedule. Either time-dependent or time-independent conditions can be created subject to the customizing in the Document Type of the Scheduling Agreement. Item Category 'M' and 'W' can not be used.

Foreign Exchange accounting in TRM

Dear Experts,
To give you brief intro, i am a finance person and user of SAP Treasury module. my knowledge of the module is of user level and not of functional or technical level.
i need your help on my below query.
for foreign exchange trades (60A), what should be the right accounting practice thru TRM (1) at time of of entering into deal (2) at time of maturity of transaction and also at time of (3) pre mature or part settlement of the transactions.
currently, i do not post any entry at time of creating 60A/102 deal.
at time of maturity, i does cash settlement in deal, put the cancellation rate, date of cancellation in date box to generate gain / loss and post the same (only cash settlement entry) thru TBB1
in case of part or early utilization or forward contract, i does the pre mature settlement from ftr_edit and copy paste 102 deal details in 105 and 103 deals including contract date and value date except for amount. thereafter, i settle both deals and cash settle 105 deal with cancellation rate and transaction date in date box to generate gain / loss. this gain / loss is posted thru TBB1. in this case, when i have taken early delivery, i have to add or subtract swap points in final rate to arrive at correct rate. also, i have to to cash settle 102 and all 103 deals when there's final amount settlement whether on due date or before it.
in my case, buy sale position of two currencies are shown in cashflow tab as "not rel. for posting" and is not posting even on maturity.
i know i have given bit lengthy details but i really wants to understand
1. is above practice of recording fx transaction is correct?
2. is there any better way to capture early deliveries?
3. in case of early delivery, is it right & necessary to replicate 102 deal details in 105 and 103?
4. what is role of TPM18 which i am not using at all in above scheme of fx set up?
your valuable reply will be of great help to me.
Thanking you all in advance
Kapil

Hello Kapil,
Your questions has covered most of FX process.
I'll try to answer few of your question.
Answer 1) The process is correct, Its based on what your company required consultant has customized the system in that fashion, As you said there is not posting even during maturity of deals, that because in customization setting is missing for posting. Incase its required please consult you consultant to make the changes in system for Flow type-(here relevant for posting is unchecked).
Answer 2 & 3, I'm not sure why consultant has suggested to use such a lengthy process to settle early deliver deal, There might be some reason for the same. Please check,
But the same process can also be addressed, throught FTR_edit and settle the single deal through cash settlement.
Also note, 103 is only used for netting which means you are trying to settle couple of deal together and that can be excluded if you have only single deal.
Answer 4) TPM18 is used to do the valuation after the deal has been closed.Realized gains and losses are determined according to single valuation of transactions principle. This is calculated by taking the difference between the forward rate based on the conclusion of the contract and the posted rate on value date.
Let me know in case you need more information.

Jaiin

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,

hi,
in OBA1 settings please enter main bank account insteed of exchange gain or loss accounts. then that difference it will post to mail account only insteed of exchange gain or loss account.

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.
Thank you

SQL Developer Data Modeler - Relation to Foreign Key Generation

SQL Developer Data Modeler 2.0.0 Build 584.
I am having trouble with Relations to Foreign Keys when Forward Engineering a Relational Model from a Logical Model.
First of all, the Naming Standard is not applied to the Foreign Keys when I perform the Engineer to Relational Model.
So I right click on the Relational Model from the Browser and Apply Naming Standards to Keys and Constraints.
I uncheck everything but Foreign Keys.
Now, Foreign Keys are named according to my Naming Standards.
However, this process also performs renames on the Column Foreign Keys even though I specifically unchecked that option.
This appears to be a BUG in the software and I haven't found a way around it.
I tried using {column} instead of {ref column} in the Naming Standard Template for Column Foreign Key, but that simply resulted in renaming my columns to "{column}".
Please confirm and/or let me know of any work-around for this.
Thanks,
Dan

Hi Philip,
Thanks for the reply.
Is this recorded as a bug to be addressed in the future?
Should I submit this problem via Oracle Support?
The other work-around I came up with is to override every Relation name in the Logical Model with the name I want to use in the Relational Model.
When the Relational Model is Engineered, this becomes my Foreign Key name.
Of course, this is not how I want to do things, so I am hoping for a bug fix someday.

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.
Carl

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

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,

Down payment request for contract with periodic billing

Hi Friends,
Could anyone help me in understanding the configuration settings for down payment / advance payment senario for a CONTRACT which has Order related billing (I have done for Order with milestone billing plan).
The contract has order related *periodic billing plan* where settlement period is suppose quaterly billing and actual invoice is happening on 1st date of the quarter. But i want to create a down payment request say 10 days before the billing date[(actual invoice(F2) date] of every quater as an advance payment/ down payment.
FYI...
For order i am using standard billing rule 1 in milestone billing plan for final invoice but for downpaymnet billing dates (added additional settlement periods then actual invoice settlement period like 3 adv pay ment og 20%, 30% 50% & one actual invoice period for whole amount 100% as D4 doc only) i am manually changing the billing rule as 4 to create a down payment req.
But in contract as its has periodic billing plan no billing rule changing option (no additional settlement period can be added, only settlement period for actual invoice is getting proposed) so i can't have two different rule for a settlement period. no settlement period can be added separately for adv paymnet/down payment.
Kindly respond ASAP.
Rgds
Manish

Hi, Many thanks for your response.
But the down payment functionality for a SO with milestone billing i have already implemented.
The question was for CONTRACT Side (say rental / service contract). The contract has periodic billing (monthly / Q'ly).
Kindly let me know if you/anyone has any idea for config settings for a contract with the senario mentioned in previous thread post.
Thnx & Rgds

Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2007 Shared Contacts with Attachments

We have an Exchange 2010 server. There is only one Exchange server so all roles are on this server.
Found out that sharing contacts between users misses something.
If a user has Attachments or Notes in their contacts we can see via the Attachment column in Contacts that there are attachments.
But another user viewing the shared Contacts of the user above, cannot see if the Contacts have Attachments unless they open each one. The Attachment column states there are no Attachments. Is this how it is? Is it a syncing issue?
The image I have attached is what the user sees accessing a shared contact address book. It shows Notes and the Attachments columns. The contacts with partial words visible in the Notes column should have a Paper Clip Icon as they also have attached items.

Hi,
There is no related feature in Exchange server to manage Outlook view.
Additionally, I shared my Contact with another user in my Exchange 2010 SP3 with Outlook 2013 environment. And it showed the same results as yours. The attachments icon was not shown in the list view in another user’s Outlook but it appeared in my own Contact.
Thanks,

Report for Unrealized/Realized Foreign Exchange Payments and Receipts

Is there a report in SAP that shows unrealized/realized foreign exchange cash receipts and payments. if yes, what is that report. Please provide transaction code.
If not, do we need to create ABAP query. How do we create that Query in this regard. What information are we required to give the Abap person or do we create an Query ourself. How do we create it. please explain with steps.
It is little urgent. Please reply soon.
Thanks
Lakshmi

Hi Lakshmi,
I can try to explain this financial funda more claraly as below:-
Realized Exchnage rate Diffrence Gain/ Loss:-
         When the foreign currency transaction has actually completed and you have gained/lossed due to that transaction is called as realized gain/loss.
         For example you have purchased the goods on 01 Jan, 2008 for 5000 INR (100 USD) on credit. Now on 16th Jan, 2008 you paid the invoice by paying 100 USD and clear it off. But on 16th Jan, the exchange rate between INR: USD came down to 45. So you gained by amount 500 INR (100 USD * (50-45)). This is the realized gain when you clear of the invoice againest the payment.
UnRealized Exchnage rate Diffrence Gain/ Loss:-
         Here the foreign exchange rate diffrence appear but not realized, because the transaction is not cleared up.
         Taking the scenario above, if you do not pay on 16th jan and invoice remains open. You run the F.05 at month end to revaluate the open items and on 31st Jan, the exchange rate came down at 48 INR per USD. Then F.05 will show the unrealized gain of 200 INR (100 USD * (50-48)).
I hope that this clarifies the things. if yes, please assign some points.
Regards,
Gaurav
