Summary :
In SAP Release 2.2, invoice clearing in foreign currencies with local currency payments and the display of transaction amounts in multiple currencies exhibit issues. Release 2.2 introduces the ability for third-currency clearing, with revised clearing techniques differing from Release 2.1, where only local or invoice currency clearing was possible. Users can configure settings to replicate Release 2.1 procedures. Various payment scenarios illustrate how exchange rate fluctuations affect postings. These include detailing the process of settling foreign currency invoices with local and third currency payments and handling differences due to rate changes.
