Hi,

For this create a PO for eg in USD with rate 45 . do the GR . Then in MIRO change the exchange rate to 46 but keep the value in usd same.

Exchange rate differences in the case of open items (KDM)

Exchange rate differences in the case of open items arise when an invoice relating to a purchase order is posted with a different exchange rate to that of the goods receipt and the material cannot be debited or credited due to standard price control or stock undercoverage/shortage.
