Foreign revolution second part


Purpose
This wiki provides a demonstration of valuation of Open Items In Foreign
Currencies
Overview
From the help.sap.com documentation the following is stated
Valuation of Open Items in Foreign Currencies.
Use
All open items in foreign currency are valuated as part of the foreign
currency valuation:

The individual open items of an account in foreign currency form the basis of
the valuation, that is, every open item of an account in foreign currency is valuated
individually.

Example of open items are customers, Vendors, or GL accounts


managed on open item basis (SKB1-XOPVW = X)

The total difference from all the open items in an account is posted to a
financial statement adjustment account. The account therefore retains its original
balance.
The exchange rate profit or loss from the valuation is posted to a separate
expense or revenue account for exchange rate differences as an offsetting posting.
A valuation cannot be made by posting to the payables/receivalbes account,
since reconcilation accounts cannot be directly posted to.

For this reason the amount is posted to an adjustment account, which


appears in the same line of the balance sheet as the reconcilation account
