Exchange Rate Difference Line with Zero Amount Prevents Posting (Public Cloud)

[kaya-ya]

When making a payment to a vendor using the same currency (TWD), SAP generates a Gain from exchange rate difference posting to G/L account 72510000, but both the debit and credit amounts are shown as zero.

In this case, the vendor invoice is linked to a down payment.

Because of this, I assume the posting to G/L account 72510000 should not occur and may not be necessary at all.

However, due to this G/L line item, I’m unable to complete the posting.

Has anyone else encountered the same issue or found a solution?

Thank you in advance.

Hello dear user,

And thank you for asking your question in the SAP Community blog.

Have you checked the SAP note below ?

2539550 - More gain/loss lines generated with amount 0.00 in LC1 or LC2 when clearing

It might be useful to answer your question.

Best regards,

Jeremy

Dear Jeremy, Thank you for your reply. We find that a group currency amount difference of 0.01 USD is generated between the down payment and accounts payable. However, all of our current transactions are conducted in TWD. Whether this exchange difference is intentionally retained by the system when the invoice is cleared with a down payment, or is it caused by exchange rate rounding differences due to multiple line items being calculated separately instead of based on the total amount (i.e., could this issue occur in scenarios beyond just down payments)? I've uploaded the screenshots in the article, thank you.
