Intercompany Sales with Foreign Currency Differences

[Former Member]

We have a scenario using the 2-step intercompany sales process:

1) Create PO

2) Create Delivery and PGI

3) Automatic IDoc Generated for Vendor Invoice

4) Receive PO via MIGO

Selling Company currency is USD. Receiving Company currency is EUR. Due to the lengthy intransit times (3-4 weeks), when the MIGO is posted, the value converted from EUR to USD, is different than the PGI value (SD invoice) in USD. The difference is posted to an exchange rate difference account. However, our business users do not want this exchange rate difference, but wants the value to be constant according to the PGI date.

We cannot switch back to the one-step PGI and GR process because it affects our APO system. In GATP, it would show that the inventory is available in the receiving plant, but it is actually still in transit.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to get around this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Can the field Exchange rate fixed in the PO header -> Delivery/Invoice tab be used for your business process?
