substitution for translation date with document date

[Former Member]

Hi!

as per our client requirement while posting MIGO, the document date has to be considered for exchange rate , SO I have written a simple substituion in OBBH, with pre requisites as company code = AB01 and transaction code = MIGO_GR, BKPF-WWERT = BKPF-BLDAT.

I have done all the required de selections in table GB01.

But system is not able to substitute translation date with document date.

I have gone through some links SDN, but I couldn't find the proper solution.

we have two sap notes for substituting the document date in MIGO and MIRO, but we can implement with country level. But we have many company codes in same country, substitution is applicable for only one company code.

the manual option of ticking fixed exchange rate field in purcahse order is not accepted by the client, as it involves manual intervention. more over system will post exchnage rate differences also in this case, client donot want that.

So, how can we develop substitution for translation date?

Dear Ramesh,

If you need this functionality, note 574583 should help. Have you activated the BADI FI_TRANS_DATE_DERIVE? You have to check the source code you have implemented in the function module FI_DERIVE_WWERT, wherein you modify the field e_wwert.

In MIGO, the only way to influence the translation date (BKPF-WWERT) is via the modification proposed in the SAP note:

- 619330 - Document date instead of posting date in GR.

Please, be aware that the modification from this note 619330 is applicable only to clients with active 'Material Ledger'. Thus, if you do not work with active Material Ledger, the functionality your requirement is not available.

Please, carefully consider that this note 619330 is only a MODIFICATION proposal (not part of standard system) and this can applied only on you own risk.

I hope the above information helps.

Suresh.
