Hello,

Baan IVc

When allocating FC payments the error message comes up Different rate not allowed I understand from this that because the payment is at a different exchange rate to the invoice they cannot be matched off.

One of the effects of this is that cleared/paid transactions are being left open and thus get printed in reports such as statements.

Has any one come across this problem? Did you find a solution?

Many thanks.

Hi,
Maybe it's because you have set "Fixed Rate" at invoice entering.
Go to tfaco2100m000 and check 2nd form to see if the invoice has fixed rate "Yes". If it has, change it to "No" and try again.
Hope this will solve it.
Regards,
Pedro

Sorry, I meant tfacp2100m000.

Thank you for the suggestion Pedro.

I have checked the invoices, they're all set to be variable currency (i.e. fixed rate = No)

If you have any other ideas I'd be glad to hear them.

Regards.

Hi,
What currencies are you dealing with?
Are there any EMU currencies? Have you run the Internal Euro Conversion?

Hi,

Our HC is GBP, so we have not run a euro converter.
Eur is an FC along with USD etc.

Hi,
Your problem is really puzzling. Could you please tell me which sessions are you using to alocate the payments to the invoices?

Pedro

A good question.

Sessions are:


tfcmg2131s000 & tfcmg2106s000

We have had to work around this in the tables but this only is only a short term fix as the problem could happen again, so I'm still looking for a cure.

Hi,

Why not write of currency difference (tfacp2240m000) for the invoice and then allocate the payment ?

Regards

I must admit I though this session was for after allocation differences rather than before allocation. But I'll try it out next time, thanks for the suggestion.
