Hi
A forward exchange transaction can be regarded as a future spot exchange transaction, because it comprises the future purchase or sales of foreign exchange.
Check the link for more info

You use spot exchange transactions to buy and sell internationally traded currencies against other currencies. These orders have very short expiry terms. It is a binding agreement for the immediate exchange of foreign exchange. As a rule, the foreign exchange is credited or delivered two days after conclusion of the business transaction.

  • How to get link b/w FAGL_FC_VAL documents and Exchange rate loss&gain g/l

    Hi experts,
    pls tell me link b/w FAGL_FC_VAL documents and Exchange rate loss & gain g/l documents.pls provide me the table name and field names.
    Regards,
    Viswanadh

    Hi,
    I think you have been looking for link between FAGL_FC_VAL document created at the time of foreign currency valuation and document created at the time of realization (loss or profit booked). There should not by any link between the two, please note that these two will be differnt figures as realization is based on exchange rate at the time of realization and valuation is based on the rate prevailing at the time of valuation. Also valuation gets reversed on key date + 1 which woulld essentially mean that valuation is done for reporting purposes only.
    Hope this helps!!!

  • Currency Coversion and Exchange Rate Issue

    Hi,
    I have a scenario in query which is related to currency conversion and exchange rates.
    Company Code     Matter Code      Invoice          Invoice date     Amount     
                        Number          (DD/MM/YYYY)
    1001          1111          INV101          01/01/2011     $100
    1001          2222          INV202          05/01/2011     $150     
    1001          3333          INV303          10/01/2011     $200     
    1001          4444          INV404          15/01/2011     $250
    Here , Amount field is in GBP currency by default.
    User gives choice as USD on selection screen and the amount field is converted to USD in output.
    Now, I wonder which day's exchange rate is applied for same ??
    And what steps should I do if I want to apply a particular day's exchange rate ??
    i.e.
    Consider that there are different exchange rates maintained on daily basis.
    For each invoice number (INV101 , INV202.....) There is an invoice date (01/01/2011, 05/01/2011...).
    The corasponding output amount should take that particular date's exchange rate for conversion of currency.
    How to achive same ??
    I have gone through t-code RSCUR for same. Nothing helpful found.
    I have even gone through some documents for currency conversion., but unable to find out such scenario.
    Please help me for same.

    Sachdev-
    Currency translations are a very complex issue for BW developers. What you need to do is manage a currency translation that is based on the exact 0CALDAY of the transaction. Here are some helpful hints
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/dc43c445-0d01-0010-23a1-ca348ff5f975?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
    The standard SAP business content includes some standard translations as shown in the article, like these:
    0MEANTODAY Average rate using actual date (0SY-DATUM)
    u2022 0MEANDAILY Average rate using 0CALDAY of the data record
    u2022 0TRA_DATE Average rate using 0TRANS_DATE of the data record
    u2022 0PSTNG_DAT Average rate using 0PSTNG_DATE of the data record
    u2022 0DOC_DATE Average rate using 0DOC_DATE of the data record
    However, you MUST have a translation available in the main SAP Currency translation table (Transaction oB08 ) for the period in question, and you MUST report in the appropriate date. If, for example, you wish to report in an aggregate by 0CALMONTH, for example, the currency translation will need to be associated with 0CALMONTH, and the exchange rate will not calculate on a day by day basis, but on the standard that you set for the month. So, to your users, the data will be 'wrong'.
    A more robust method involves adding a value field to your data soiurce that uses the currency exchange rate in effect as of the day of the transaction. We do this in our data models, to with:
    Mexico Data source:
    Each value field will be available in the document currency(whatever), the company code currency(MXP), and in the corporate currency (USD).
    Good luck ! Most users don't understand the whole issue, and we spend a bit of time explaining it to them.

  • Help me about Indexes and Exchange rate

    I see in SAP B1 have form Exchange rates and Indexes. I don't know mean of Index. What does it use for? And Exchange rates relate to Indexes. I can't understand. Can you help me.

    Hello Tien,
    You are clever. There are also some member forums could not know how benefit the helpfiles for them and a certain member in this forum is called forum point seeker, take this as an opportunity.
    Indexes in SAP B1 are used to define consumer price index (CPI). h
    ere is the definition :
    The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures inflation as experienced by consumers in their day-to-day living expenses. (It is sometimes referred to as the retail price index.) There are separate indexes for two groups or populations of consumers:
    The CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) is the index most often reported by the national media.
    The CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) is the index most often used for wage escalation agreements.
    The CPI inflation calculator allows customers to calculate the value of current dollars in an earlier period, or to calculate the current value of dollar amounts from years ago.
    Consumer price indexes often are used to escalate or adjust payments for rents, wages, alimony, child support and other obligations that may be affected by changes in the cost of living. There is a fact sheet explaining how to use the CPI for escalating contracts.
    A new price index called the Chained Consumer Price Index (C-CPI-U) is now available. This new measure is designed to be a closer approximation to a "cost-of-living" index than the CPI-U or CPI-W.
    Based on that definition, we could obtain it as data when determining exchange rate in daily business or price of the inventory items

    Hi Rohan,
    Currencies and Exchange Rates are maintained in a Table = TCURV.
    Goto SE11 and see that Table.
    Some other useful Tables are:
    RSDCUBEIOBJ          =     Objects per Info Cube (where-used list)
    RSDODSOATRNAV      =      Info Object in ODS (navigational attributes)
    RSDODSOIOBJ      =      Info Object in ODS
    Assign points if it is helpful.

  • Extract Conversion Difference and Exchange Rate Difference Journal Only

    Hi Experts,
    How can we extract all Conversion Difference and Exchange Rate Difference Only?
    Is there any parameter that we can use to extract this data?
    Please advice
    Regards,
    Amy

    Hi,
    First, you should define transaction code in Administration >>> setup >>> financials >>> transaction codes.
    Example: DIE : Different Exchange Rate
    Every time you execute Exchange Rate Difference and Conversion Difference, remember to assign DIE code to "Code" field. Then you can extract DIE journal entry easily by choosing DIE code when use expanded function in any accounting reports.
    Hope this helps,

  • Exchange rate, Plan exchange rate Programs & Function modules in SAPBW ....

    Hi Friends,
    Could anybody please tell me what are the  " Exchange rate, & Plan exchange rate " Programs & Function modules.
    If any customized also , I can do modify and i will use it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ramesh

    Hi there
    Exchange rates are used for currency conversion rules in queries, data loads, etc.
    You can export exchange rates from R/3 (or other system) to SAP BI, and change them or define your own exchange rates.
    For planning, you can create exchange rates specifically for that purpose.
    In currecny conversion rules you can tell the system which exchange rate to use (for example EURX from EUR->USD)
    To view/mantain exchange rates go to transaction SPRO->SAP Reference IMG->SAP Netweaver->General Settings->Currencies->Enter Exchange Rates
    Diogo.

  • Exchange rate, plan exchange rate Programs & Function modules in SAP ....

    Hi Friends,
    Could anybody please tell me  what are the  " Exchange rate " & Plan exchange rate "  standard programs, function modules  avaialble in SAP  .
    Thanks in advance,
    Ramesh.

    Check via transaction OB07 (or SPRO - General Settings - Currencies - Check exchange rate types) usually you will find a "M" average exchange rate (which is used operationally everywhere in Logistics) and a "P" planned exchange rate (used for cost planning)
    Exchange rates are maintained via transaction OB08 (or SPRO, same tree - last node - Enter exchange rates)
    When programming, use tables TCUR* or FM of function groups like SCUR "Translation of Currency Amounts etc." (CONVERT_TO_FOREIGN_CURRENCY, CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY and READ_EXCHANGE_RATE among others)

  • "current encoder settings for bit rate and sample rate are invalid" message

    I have some files I am working with. Details and what happened:
    Had some music files where I was doing some trimming/splitting. Files worked fine in itunes.
    Open the files in Quicktime Pro 7 to trim them. Exported to aif.
    Opened the files with itunes. They open and play just fine.
    In Itunes I click"create AAC version" to convert them.
    I receive the message "An error occurred while trying to import the file. The current encoder settings for bit rate and sample rate are not valid for this file."
    I don't know what to do from here. Suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Make sure that the AIFFs that you export are set for 16 bit PCM.
    Also, assuming that you are using 44.1 kHZ sampling in your AIFFs, make sure that you are not trying to use 48 kHz in the AAC.

  • Rebate rate and accrual rate

    What is the difference between rebate rate and accrual rate in rebate agreements. One example wil be very helpful

    Accrual Rate:
    You can enter an accrual rate manually in each condition record. The accrual rate should reflect, as accurately as possible, the rate at which the rebate will be calculated at final settlement.
    Every time you process a rebate-relevant billing document (an invoice, a credit or debit memo), the system automatically posts an accrual to financial accounting (FI). Within FI, the rebate accrual is posted to two accounts: a sales deduction account and an accrual account. The accrual account is cleared when the rebate agreement is settled with a credit memo.
    Rebate Rate:
    A price discount that a vendor grants a customer at a later time.
    The amount of rebate depends on the invoiced sales that the customer achieves in a specified period and is defined using condition records.
