Thank you for your tip, but I have already checked this and there is no alternate exchange rate type assigned.
Kind regards,
Linda

Subject: Incorrect Currency Rate for LC2 Amount
Dear Experts,
I am experiencing a scenario where the currency rate for LC2 does not correspond to the one assigned in exchange rate table (TCURR) and would need your advise.
The following data is maintained in transaction OB22:
LC= Company code currency
Local Currency2 = USD (Group currency - type 30)
Local Currency 3= EUR (Index based currency – type 50)
Exchange rate type for LC, LC2 and LC3 currencies= M
Source currency for LC, LC2 and LC3 currencies = 1 "Translation taking transaction currency as basis"
TrsDte typ for LC, LC2 currency and LC3 = 3 "Translation date"
Maintained exchange rates valid until 31.01.2011 are as follow for exchange rate type M
1 SEK= 0.09527 GBP
1USD= 0.64114 GBP
1 EUR = 0.85855 GBP
Posting date, Document date and Translation date for the posted document are all 28.01.2011.
For LC and LC3 currency conversion is correct i.e. it picks rate for exchange rate type M from TCURR, but for LC2 (Group currency) system chooses a different exchange rate that I cannot derive:
Doc. Curr. Amount= 187.44 GBP
LC Amount=1967.46 SEK
LC2 Amount= 281.16 USD
LC3 Amount = 218.32 EUR
*When dividing Doc amount 187.44 GBP by LC amount 1967.46 SEK the exchange rate is 1 SEK= 0.09527 GBP, which is correct.
*When dividing Doc amount 187.44 GBP by LC3 amount 218.32 EUR the exchange rate is 1 EUR= 0.85855 GBP, which is correct.
* When dividing Doc amount 187.44 GBP by LC2 amount 218.32 USD the exchange rate is 1 USD= 0.6667 GBP. This is incorrect considering the settings in OB22 for LC2 together with exchange rate in TCURR = 1 USD=0.64114 GBP. Correct LC2 amount, using exchange rate in TCURR, would have been 292.35 USD.
It has to be some sort of calculation since I do not find the rate 1 USD = 0.6667 GBP anywhere in the system.
I can add that the document is a MIRO posting, but the currency in PO/MIRO is set to 1 SEK = 0,09527 GBP, which is correct. I have also checked the assignment of currency type to material ledger type and it is set to use currency types from FI and to correspond to the currency types from CO.
Can someone please explain to me how and why SAP has come to calculate an exchange rate for my LC2 amount that differs from what it should be considering settings in OB22 and rates in TCURR?
All tips are very much appreciated!
Kind regards,
Linda |
