Exchange rate type determination

[former_member672407]

Hi,

Just wanted to know how a exchange rate TYPE is determined by SAP in sales order or any FI document?

Currently for us, the exchange rate type used by SAP is EURX and I am wondering how this type is determined (not type M), if:

1. Nothing is defined in customer master

2. Nothing is defined in Additional Local currencies (OB22)

The company is Poland and company code currency is EUR. Is it to do anything with Euro currency.

Please help me?

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

The system by default uses Exchange Rate Type M for any currency translation in the system. You can use a different exchange rate type in your system, instead of Type M, by defining the alternative exchange rate type in transaction code OBBS.

Please assign points.

Hi,

Just check the "Document type" used in FI document posting. Refer transaction code OBA7 and you can define the default "Ex.rate type for forgn crncy docs".

If you do not want to use the average rate (rate type M) as the default

value for the document type selected, enter the rate type you want to

use (bank buying rate, bank selling rate, group exchange rate, ...)

here.
