We cannot control the exchange rate type used when posting to the GL
from SD (Billing) or MM transactions (LIV). We have defined an exchange
rate type in the customer and the vendor master data (exch rate type
varies by partner). When creating sales orders and purchase orders, the
system pulls the rate successfully from the currency exchange table,
OB08, per the defined exchange rate type. Without exception though, the
accounting documents pull the ‘M’ rate as defined at the posting date of
the accounting document.
Is there a way to have the accounting documents use the exchange rate
type and effectivity date from the order instead of revaluating the
transaction before the initial posting to the GL?
