Hi,

Does anyone know of the logic behind why, when the Adjust Exchange Rate feature is used, adjustments on Vendor and Client Balances go to Unrealied Gain/Loss whereas for Banks they go to Realised Gain/Loss.

You can think of it this way - Customer/Vendor adjustments go to unrealized gain/loss accounts because these are gain/losses you expect to earn when the invoice or open document is settled. The gains/losses calculated are what you expect to earn if the invoice or document was closed. These gains/losses haven't actually occurred, so they're unrealized.

The bank adjustment goes to realized gain/loss because its the actual cash value that changed based on the FX rate at month-end. These are transactions that have been completed, and cash you have in your bank account, so they're realized.
