Poting with zero amount

[Former Member]

Hi ,

In f-02 if we are using foriegn currency can we post a document with a line item having foriegn currency amount as zero and local currency amount with some values.This is done to capture the foriegn exchange rate.

Thanks & Regards,

Arun.

Hi,

that won't work in F-02. You have to use transaction "FX difference posting" to do so. YOu can find it in the application menu Accounting --> GL --> Posting --> Foreign currency valuation, I can't remember the tcode for the moment and I have no system access right now (FFB1? FBB5? ... )

The regular periodic FX revaluation program (tcode F.05) is using the same transaction in its batch input sessions.

Here, and only here, are you allowed to enter 0 amount for either document currency or local currency (also works for 2nd and 3rd local currency, if available).

Hope that helps, points welcome

Can i create a line item in F02 with foriegn currency amount as Zero and local currency amount with some values? Because last time when i tried i can do but nw cannot do since the system is deriving the foriegn amount from local amount.So i want to know why cannot create the line item now?Is it because of some configuration?

Arun, use T-code F-05. It may serve your purpose.
