Error - Material cost estimate with quantity structure

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus!

Can anyone please help with the following problem:

I’m trying to do the material cost estimate with quantity structure, but the system is throwing back the message " There is no exchange rate for exchange rate type P on 1.01.2008: CHF -> EUR".

This happens because I have a subcontratation in my routing in CHF, and in transaction OB08, and I don’t had defined that rate (type P CHF –EUR).

I need to know if there is any solution to the system assumes other Type of Exchange Rate (the last real exchange rate that I have introduced in my system, not the planned!)

Points will be assigned to the suitable answer.

Thanks in advance.

In the valuation variant for the activity price tab you enter the version that is used for selecting the prices. In OKEQ, for the specific year & the version you maintain that 'P' is considered for forex conversion. You may either change the version, which can be configured to choose a preferred ex-rate type or change the ex-rate type for version 0.

Hi Sridhar

Thanks for your reply.

In OKEQ for the version 0, I have the rate type M.

I don't understand why the system throwing back the message " There is no exchange rate for exchange rate type P on 1.01.2008: CHF -> EUR".!

Do you know why?

Thanks and regards

Does the rate for the sub-con picking up from a PIR?

Hi Sridhar

Do you mean does the rate for the sub-contract picking up from a Purchase Info Record?

No, it has picking from the material routing.

Thanks and regards
