Multi Currency Transaction

Posted on by 2,947

I have multicurrency transaction.

Candadian $ = 52.65

Exchange Rate: 1.0531000

Rate Type: AVERAGE

Debit amount = 55.45

 

Question: How Debit amount is calculating? Please help.

    H Bab - there is nothing inherently wrong with this transaction. It is doing exactly what it is being asked to do.

    However - what result did you expect? Did you expect a converted value of $50.00 (49.995)? If so, then the translation method is set incorrectly - Divide instead of Multiply.

    I this is the issue, then:

    In the FX Rate set up window, you will need to delete all rates entered, then change the conversion method, then re-enter the rates. This will not update any transactions that have already been entered. Unposted transactions, you can change manually, posted ones, you might have to reverse and re-enter.

    Or...you can set up a completely new FX table and start using that for future transactions.

    Best regards,

    Ian.

    Hello Bab

    Open the Exchange Table Maintenance and access the Exchange Table ID for Canadian Dollars to the functional currency setup in your company, which has been mapped to the rate type AVERAGE.

    Check out what is the rate calculation method (multiply or divide) which determines how the functional equivalent for the Canadian$ amount which you have entered.

    It looks like your Exchange Table is multiplying Canadian $ x 1.0531000 to arrive at your functional currency.  Is this not correct?  What is your functional currency?
