Invoices and credit memos of approximately the same amount are cleared. When calculating the bank row, the +/- signs of the amounts may differ in local currency and parallel currency. Due to the database design, the amounts are stored as absolute values, and only one debit/credit indicator is available per line item. As a result, a document without exchange rate differences cannot be created. This phenomenon can particularly occur if the exchange rate varies significantly between the local currency and the parallel currency.

Ensure the correct Customizing of the payment program is applied: Uncheck the 'No exchange rate differences' option in SSCUI 101001 Set Up Paying Company Codes for Payment Transactions.
