Testing conversion between reference and local currency...

Hi,
I am working on exchange rate configuration. If we define exchange Ref currency in the table for defining exchange rate type, SAP says that if we are using multiple currencies then we need not feed translation rates between each and every
currency but just between reference currency and foreign currencies.
I am using 3 foreign currencies (X1,X2,X3) and one local or reference (BMD) currency.
I have defined the translation rates between (X1 -> BMD, X2 -> BMD, X3 -> BMD). Now I want to test if translation between X1 and X2 takes place
correctly or not. How can I test this ? How can I prototype this in afunction module ?
Regards,
Rajesh.

Hi,
Use the FM:
<b>READ_EXCHANGE_RATE</b> Retrieve exchange rate on a particular date
Hope this helps.
Reward if helpful.
Regards,
Sipra

SEM -BCS Trasaction currency and Local Currency

SAPGURUS
I have one issue , When the users are doing Half yearly BCS they see that for one company code for one item period values Local currency is diifeernt from
Transaction currency .
My question is why this Transaction currency is different from local currecny.
How to rectify this .
Are they missing any exchnage rate conversion .
Thanks in Advance .
are they missing any exchnage rate conversion .

Hi Dan Sullivan
Thanks for the quick reply .
One more question .
I see in the BCS T Curency as Euro and Local currency as Euro .
but the period values localy currency is different from Transaction currency .
I think the values should be the same if both T Currecny and Local Currency is same .
I also observed that this particular difference is happening only for 2 particular set of accounts . Those accounts are related to Intercompany related G L Accounts values .
I also observed that in the Break down category for these G L Accounts The break down structure category has defined as defaulted .
I would like to know what would be the cause for the above .
Thanks in Advance .

Actual Costing - CKME update in group and local currency - split

Hi Experts,
We are using Actual Costing and running CKMLCP and CKME to update our standard price, in local currency and in group currency.
The result it is one PR accounting document, with group currency and local currency booked in it.
Now, we have this requeriment where they want to have 1 PR document with local currency booked and $0 group currency and another PR document with local currency as $0 and Group Currency booked.
It is like doing MR21 and not doing automatic translation into foreign currency, that is what we want.
So, the question is, Is there a way of archiving this in a simple way?
Thanks for your comments!
Enrique

Hi Enrique,
The final step in CKMLCP enters future prices for all materials based on the actual prices of the period.
You could Use CKMPRPN the 'maintenance of future prices' with it's rule based approach to change the data before activating with CKME.
You could
1. delete the group currency future prices (CKMPRPN)
2. release the new standard prices in company code currency (CKME)
3. create future prices in group currency by adopting the (previous month's) V-price as future price (CKMPRPN)
4. release the new standard prices in group code currency (CKME)
I am not sure if you could also distinguish the validity dates between both currencies with CKMPRPN. If yes, that might be better than deleting and rebuilding the price.You could change the date for one currency into the future, use CKME, change the date back and use CKME again.
A disadvantage of the procedure would be that you will not release the cost component split from CKMLCP. In step 4 only the new price will be released and the split will be created from the former split. In step 2 the original split from CKMLCP will be activated.
best regards,
Udo

Foreign and Local currency balance difference in GL

Dear All,
I have a GL for Bank in which entries are posted manually through F-02. GL is maintained on company code currency (Say INR). The transactions posted are in foreign currency (ex USD).
when we check the balance of the account in FBL3N it is showing FC balance as zero and Local currency balance as 100 INR.
The above situation is due to the following
Received Amount 100 USD @ 40 = 4000 INR (manually posted JV)
Credited amount 100 USD @ 39 = 3900 INR (Manually posted through JV).
As both the activity is done through JV the system dint prompt for exchange rate difference account. So no my question is:
1. In this scenario, is there any why the system can automatically post entry to exchange rate difference Or posting Manual JV is the only way out.
2. What is the use of Tcode F.05. What it actually does.
Thanks for your valuable time.
Please let me know if you need any additional details
Regards
Naveen

Hi
Since you do not have any parallel currency, The balance of 100 INR in Local Currency is correct. There is no need to write it off.
My understanding is that the transactions are as below.
Transaction    Doc Curr   Doc Curr Amt      Loc Curr     Loc Curr Amt
1                     USD            100.00                 INR                4000.00
2                     USD           -100.00                 INR              -3900.00
Balance                                0.00                                          100.00
You have a Bank Account which is maintained in INR.
In first transaction, you have a receipt of 100$ and bank has applied a rate of 1USD = 40 INR. So the balance is 4000 INR.
Then you have made a payment of 100$ and bank has applied a rate of 1USD = 39 INR. So you still have 100 INR.
That is not a gain or loos. It is valid balance.
Thanks
Prasad

In Journal can i specify the Foreign currency and local currency amount?

In Journal Entry can i specify the Foreign currency amount and local currency amount?
I tried the following code it is working fine using DIAPI.
Here the Local currency and the System currency is SGD. And the Journal is for USD.
oJnl.Lines.FCDebit = 120.10
oJnl.Lines.FCCredit = 0
oJnl.Lines.FCCurrency = "USD"
oJnl.Lines.Debit = 120.10
oJnl.Lines.Credit = 0
oJnl.Lines.Add()
oJnl.Lines.FCDebit = 0
oJnl.Lines.FCCredit = 120.10
oJnl.Lines.FCCurrency = "USD"
oJnl.Lines.Debit = 0
oJnl.Lines.Credit = 120.10
oJnl.Add()
But, the above way of doing is not working if i pass this Journal through B1.
B1 is not allowing to change the local currency amount, Local currency amount is automatically calculated based on the FC amount and the Exchange rate.
So Can i use the DIAPI to do this? is this right to do?

Solved.
In Journal Entry window, please kindly go to Form Settings/Document/
Table tab page/ Convert Amounts According to Rate upon Exit:
Clear the checkboxes 'From LC Field' & 'From FC Field', then the Local
currency amount will not be automatically calculated based on the FC
amount and the Exchange rate.

Diplay Functional,Reporting and Local currency

Hi,
I've a requirement to display Transactions in functional,Reporting as well as in Local currency.Do I need to setup Oracle 11i Env in MRC for that?If so how to get the transactions displayed in Local cuirrency ?Do I need to Covert them or I've to create new set of books for the same like we create one for reporting currency?
This requirement is for 11.5.10.2 as well as R12
Thanks,
Mahender
Edited by: user518071 on Jul 30, 2010 6:20 AM

Hi
You need to do the following
In 11i
1. You need to set up Reporting Set of Books to get the transactions and reports in Reporting currency for Local Currency, Functional Currency.
2. If your Functional Currency is USD, Reporting Currency is EUR and Local Currency is AED, then you need to set Main SOB in USD and Reporting SOB in EUR and AED.
In R12
1. You can set Reporting currency if you need the transactions and reports in Reporting currency provided Chart of Accounts, Calendar and Convention is same.
If your Functional Currency is USD, Reporting Currency is EUR and Local Currency is AED, then you need to set Main SOB in USD and Reporting SOB in EUR and AED.
2. If the requirement is not only currency but you need for a different Calendar or COA or Accounting convention, then you need to set a Secondary Ledger
Hope this helps

F110 proposal (Open items include document currency and Local Currency)

Hi All,
I have a vendor for which there are 20 open items, out of which there are credit memo's as well as vendor invoices. Vendor is a Newzealand vendor.
Invoices details are given below:
1) some of the credit memo's have Amount in NZD and the corresponding Amount in LC (Local currency, in our case USD)
2) some of the credit memo's have Amount in USD only.
3) some of the Invoices have Amount in NZD and the corresponding Amount in LC (Local currency, in our case USD)
4) some of the Invoices have Amount in USD only.
When user ran a F110 proposal for this vendor and we are trying to pay in USD, all the open items went into exceptions.
In the proposal the amount for the document, it gives the amount which are in NZD (Or the document currency amount).
Please let me know how to proceed without having these invoices into exceptions and to pay these invoices in USD.
Thanks
Rajanikanth

we have cancelled all the documents and re-entered in USD and paid in USD.
Thanks

Clearing in foreign currnency and local currency and F13E

Hello,
I have a GL account whose Balance in Local Currency Only (BILCO) and Open Item Management (OI) flags are set. The line items posted to this account are always in foreign currency say EUR. In the month end, we use F13E (Automatic clearing with definition of clearing currency), specify EUR, and clear the line items.
But i wonder if we still need to clear in local currency or not. Financially we are not impacted, since this is a transit type of account. We dont use F.13, since in local currency there are exchange rate gains and losses, which for us for this account make no purpose to record.
Cheers

Can you please let me know the solution for the below error which i found during loading Datasource
2LIS_11_VAITM for the cube sales overview
*Under :*

Please provide solution for the above error?
Thanks,

Hi Hameed,
check the TCURR table on both the BW and R/3 side.
Then if the GBP to EURO conversion is not maintained then make an entry in the TCURR table.
If the entry is there and not maintained then maintain with correct ratio by changing the entry.
then load the data ..
May it solve your problem..

Report to retrieve balance sheet accounts in foreign and local currencies?

Hello,
I have question regarding the availability of a report in SAP. I am wondering if a report exists in SAP to retrieve the total outstanding balances on any given date for all the balance sheet accounts (including GRIR trade) in both functional and foreign currency.
I am currently using the FAGLL03 to do this but the problem is that this report is timing out when I select too many accounts.
Does anyone know if such a report exists in SAP (besides the FAGLL03 which takes too long to run)?
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hi
A quick way is to run FAGLL03 in the background as a scheduled job.

RAW Conversion between CS2 and Aperture``

Has any one done any sort of comparison of RAW conversation out put from CS vrs; Aperture? Recently I've been using CS2 for my port processing work and really have noticed that the CS2 processing seems to be much clearer, better tones, and detail. Lately I don't seem to be able to get a decent print out of Aperture, I've been using it since it first shipped and I know it fairly well, just feels like I'm in some sort of a slump with it.

If you search this forum for deer.nef you will find a couple of recent threads on that topic.
I have done my own tests, converting several images using both apps. My conclusion is that both deliver a good conversion. Some images may come out better from on or the other but you will probably get the best result from the one you have the most familiarity with.
Note: the current RAW converson in Lightroom is not as up to date as the one in the Photoshop CS3 Public Beta. That will change next Monday. Try your own images in both. You may have a personal style that works better withh one or the other.

Synchronisation between server and local systems

Hello guys,
I hired a Vserver running with Debian and would like to synchronise it spaced (after/before start/shutdown of my local systems and in between every 30 minutes or so) with my local systems, more precisely with my home directories or some directories I define and not the complete system.
How could that be realised best?
Should I take some programs or are there any small scripts as well that do that work?
I apologise for that stupid question but I have not any experiences with issues like backup and synchronisation.
Thank you in advance.

Hello tkdfighter,
sorry but I can't follow you. Could you please be more detailed because I don't know how the functions you speak from can help me in my case.
Basically I just have that problem because I synchronise the server from two different machines and so the archive name differ from machine to machine. I already took a look on the Wikipage but unfortunately it helped me not with that problem.

Difference between HREAP and Local AP

I am interested to know if there is any difference between HREAP (centrally switched, centrally authenticated) with normal local AP.
As I can see all the traffic from the AP will still go through the controller to at the central site.

Hybrid Remote Edge Access Point (H-REAP) is a wireless solution for branch office and remote office deployments. It enables customers to configure and control access points in a branch or remote office from the corporate office through a wide area network (WAN) link without deploying a controller in each office. The H-REAP access points can switch client data traffic locally and perform client authentication locally when the connection to the controller is lost. When connected to the controller, H-REAPs can also tunnel traffic back to the controller.
