Using Bank Foreign Currency Revaluation vs. GL Foreign Currency Revaluation

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 190

Before there was the specialized Bank Foreign Currency Revaluation functionality some used to use the GL Foreign currency revaluation.

Is it still "OK" to use the GL functionality for revaluating the balance of a bank?

Is there an "official" Microsoft recommendation?

I know that with the GL revaluation in some scenarios the revaluation provided incorrect results - for example if your bank account was denominated in foreign currency (say, USD account in a company with accounting currency of GBP), and you made 3rd currency payment out of it (e.g. EUR).

However anyone aware of other issue that might arise from using the GL revaluation to revalue bank accounts?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Zvika,

    Yes, you are right that we can do Forex Revaluation from GL as well as from Bank.

    But as per the standard practice, you should do it from Bank Module.

    The main reason behind that any revaluation done from GL will not reflect on bank transactions in the bank module. You won't be able to reconcile the bank balance from the Bank module & GL.

    Thanks,
