Currency change in Invoice

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I have an issue which could be simple, but i am not sure on the answer. So I am here.

my client got a PO from a customer in GBP currency and as the company code currency is INR and need to book the sales order for the same.

Can you please let me know whether we can book the sales order in INR which will automatically done as the company code currency is INR but change the currency during Billing.I mean generate the invoice in GBP.

Appreciate your inputs.

Hi Vamsi,

In my case my customer is of GBP and my company code is INR,so what i did i took the currency of the customer in GBP and maintained it in CMR.Also i have maintained the exchange rate too between INR and GBP.The invoice will directly be raised in GBP as the customer currency is GBP.

If any problem please get back.

Thanks

Hi Rishi,

Thanks for the response. I could understand that if we maintain the currency conversion in OB08 it could happen. But i need to know whether it will hold good even if the sales order is raised in INR ?

Appreciate your response.

Hi vamsi

As all sales orders are getting created in currency INR only. There is nor problem if you create sales order in Currency INR. But if you are creating sales order with currency GBR only for that customer then maintain the currency GBR in CMR for that customer

In sale order, at header level, if you choose "Sales" tab, you can see Document currency which in your case would be INR. Change it to foreign currency and generate billing so that your billing will be generated in foreign currency. But I am not sure on the implications on the exchange rate in finance. Hence, please test this case and post the outcome.

Hi Vamsi,

What i understood from your query is that you need to raise the sales order in INR because your company code is of INR and your customer too is in INR but you want the invoice in GBP currency because the PO got raised in GBP.

I don't think it is possible,I tried doing it but atmost what we can do is we can change the doc currency in sales order header "Sales" tab from INR to GBP but this doesnot have any implication in billing.The invoice will get reflected in INR only because your customer is maintained in INR thru CMR.In the invoice you can just change the currency from INR to GBP by going to item conditions but i dont think this will help you much because the accounting documents will be showing the transactions in INR only.

Please try and if any prob do let me know.

Thanks

Hi Vamsi

First of all welcome to SDN forum

Coming to your query , First of all maintain currency conversion between INR & GBP currencies . Now as the customer got order in GBP currency then also as per the company currency you can create the sales order in the INR.But make sure you have maintained currency conversions between INR & GBP currencies.
