Understanding Amount Difference Invoices

You enter amount difference invoices when there is a difference in the exchange rate on the date that you enter an invoice and the date on which you pay the invoice. You run the Amount Difference Generation (R74R3010) program to generate invoices to account for the gain or loss. When you post the new invoice, the system writes the data to the F74R0018 table so that the data can be reported in the Sales Book or the Purchase Register.

When you run the Amount Differences Generation program, the system generates invoices in the domestic currency, and:

  • Marks the invoices as paid.

  • Summarizes the lines by original document and tax area.

  • Shows the amount difference as either the gross amount or the taxable amount, depending on the processing options.

  • Generates entries to the F0911 table.
