Inexplicable Conversion Diff. calculation

[rajesh_khater]

Hi,

In an Outgoing Payment, we have made full payment against an AP Invoice and some excess Payment On Account.

The System Exchange Rate for the whole month of May is 62.75.

The corresponding Journal Entry shows a Conversion Diff. Gain of 0.01.

How has SAP arrived at the conversion gain of 0.01?

Only 1 AP Invoice is settled and both the AP Invoice and Payment are in same month, for which the exchange rate is same.

Thanks.

Hi Rajesh,

This may be due to decimal point issue.

For Eg: While adding Invoice system calculated USD value as 105646 /62.75 = 1683.6015936255 = 1683.61 

While making Outgoing payment System calculated USD value as   105646 /62.75 = 1683.6015936255 = 1683.60

I think, you can ignore this, as auditors also allows decimal point issues.

Thanks

Hi Rajesh,

What's your rounding method selected on document settings and what's your decimal settings on system initialization - general settings - display

If your rounding method by currency and decimal for rate set up as 4 digit then 0.1 difference can occurred.

Make sure your rounding setting.
