3594007 - Exchange rate in group currency unexpected

Symptom

On clearing or in clearing document, exchange rate differences are generated that are not expected in group currency. The original document is posted via migration.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud Edition

Cause

In Original Journal Entry(ies), there is an amount posting in transaction and local currency but zero amount in Group currency. For each of the clearing documents associated with same exchange rate differences are generated. These exchange rate differences must be generated as initial journal entries had zero amounts in group currency.
The group currency amount was migrated with zero because the user provided in the migration template a group currency equal to specific currency example = USD, and kept the related amount field initial/empty. In this case group currency will be considered as provided with a zero amount and will not be derived by exchange rates.
If the system should automatically derive amount in Group Currency then also the related field Currency and Amount must be empty in migration template.
This behavior in data migration is correct because there are also use cases where customer needs to set a specific amount to zero.

Resolution

If the migrated open items are created incorrectly, reverse migrated open items. Adapt the migration template of the records in question and migrate again.
