Difference in PO and GR delivery costs for Import PO

[Former Member]

Hi,

Good Morning. I have created Imported PO. At item level, i have assigned INR 100 as CHA charges. Now it has been converted to 2.12USD. Then while doing the GR, in accounting document, it is updating CHA charges as 99.72. Then what about remaining INR0.28? This is happening because, while converting from INR to USD, system is considering first 2 places after decimal point.So Please help us to resolve the issue.

Thanks and Regards,

hi,

Do check sap note: 301247...

This note also states that the exchange rate differences arises due to rounding differences...

There is no way out for it....

The differences will get posted to the exchange rate differnce account...

and you can analyse it from MB5U:Analyse conversion differences...

Hi

This is a common issue in case of imports ... As you rightly mentioned it happens because INR and foreign currency gets converted to each other ... you cant avoid it ....

As in ur case during during GR Rs99.72 comes into picture .... so during MIRO .. u will clear bill in "INR for 100" ... so 28 paise will get loaded on stock or PRD during MIRO.

Hi

I dont think there is any solution .... system behaves as it is designed ...

your PO is in foreign curency .. u enter CHA in INR ... It gets converted to USD ... Then again at GR it gets converted to INR .... rounding off is happening ..... system makes lotsa calculations ... u just cant avoid it ,,... and moreever it is not a major impact .... plus u can always correct everything in MIRO

And in MIRO u are supposed to correct the amounts ... IV or bill booking by accounts dept is meant to clear exact bills ..in any business organisation
