SAP Note 439312 - Translation into third currency incorrect

Component : Accounts Receivable -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/439312 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
SAP Note addresses an issue where translation of values into a third currency using fixed exchange rates in SAP systems can lead to slight numerical discrepancies. This occurs mainly in the second decimal place of amounts. Additionally, there has been an unintended generation of message SG105 during open item (OI) selection without restrictions post-implementation of certain support packages or notes. Previously, the system primarily conducted translations via the local currency of the company code instead of directly using fixed exchange rates between transaction currencies. The resolution involves new program logic introduced in SAP standard system version 4.70, and corrections for earlier versions are discussed in specific correction instructions.

Key words :
system generates message sg105, terms foreign currency translation, fixed exchange rates, fixed exchange rate, invoice currency dem, payment currency euro, mathematically correct values, company code gbp, company code, standard system
