The path to activate the entry for exchange rate differences

[Former Member]

we know in Material Ledger, price differences can arise through goods receipt for PO if the exchange rate of the goods receipt and invoice receipt are different or he exchange rate at the point of invoice receipt is different to the planned exchange rate.

but there is a prerequisite: the exchange rate difference entry in Customizing for logistics invoice verification is activated.

so I want to know the detailed path in Customizing for Materials Management / Invoice Verification.

thanks.

Hi,

The functionality to post the Exchange Rate Differences in goods receipts for account-assigned purchase order items was implemented with the note 980402.

As of the implementation of this note it is possible to get the KDM line in a goods receipt for an account-assigned purchase order item, but the relevant customizing settings also need to be made.

According to this note 980402:

"After you implement this note, you can use Customizing transaction OMRW to make settings for the new logic for each company code and each currency (the first local currency and two other material ledger currencies, if the material ledger is active). If the CCCurr indicator (V_169P_PK-KDHW) is set, this activates a new logic for calculating the exchange rate difference (KDM amount) in the company code currency (first local currency). As a result, the system also generates KDM

lines for purchase orders with account assignment and for purchase orders with MAP materials in inventory management and in invoice verification if required. If the material ledger (ML) is active, you can set a corresponding indicator for additional ML currencies.

Bear in mind that the system performs a 1:1 cancellation for the KDM line in the cancellation transactions."

Materials Management

-> Logistics Invoice Verification

-> Incoming Invoice

-> Configure How Exchange Rate Differences Are Treated

Please check if the note is implemented in your system. Then, set this indicator, save your changes and re-test the system

behaviour afterwards.
