Symptom
- You create different fix-price sales order items of different sales orders for customer sales project XYZ, for example item ABC-AA and item DEF-DD (XYZ represents the project ID, ABC-AA and DEF-DD represent items of two different sales orders).
- All fix-price items use accrual method 108 - Recognize using cost-to-cost project POC.
- One or more sales order items have a net value in a foreign currency. For example, item ABC-AA has a net value in company currency, CC, and item DEF-DD has a net value in foreign currency, FC.
- Item ABC-AA, maintained in company currency, is the Leading Sales Order Item.
- In the Edit Percentage of Completion screen you maintain a manual Plan Revenue value, for example 1.000,00 CC.
- You execute the revenue recognition run and notice that the Net Value is different to the manual amount. Usually, the net value in the run and the manual plan value in the Edit Manual Revenue Recognition data screen are the same.

Cause
- In general, when a sales document item is created in a foreign currency, its Net Value in company currency is calculated based on the exchange rate valid on the item's creation date.
- In regards to the manual Net Value for the leading item ABC-AA, the net value in company currency is calculated back into foreign currency based on the sales order item's creation date.
- For the revenue recognition run this value in foreign currency is then calculated back into company currency based on the exchange rate valid on the run's posting date.
Resolution
To calculate the Leading item's net value apply the following formula:
Formula:
(Manual amount in company currency x FC-CC exchange rate at sales order item creation date) ÷ FC-CC exchange rate, valid on the run’s posting date.
Example:
Sales Order item ABC-AA:
- Net value/List price: 800,00 CC,
- Leading Sales Order item
- Manual Plan revenue: 1130,00 CC
Sales Order item DEF-DD: Net value/List price: 500,00 FC
ExR FC-CC on creation date of item ABC-AA: 1,5
ExR FC-CC on revenue recognition run posting date: 1,2
Item Net value in Revenue Recognition run:
(1130,00 CC x 1,5) ÷ 1,2 = 1.412,50 CC
