    Hi Umesh,

    You can change it, but only for a new fiscal year. To do so, go to General ledger > Currencies > System currency converstion > Ledger reporting currency conversion.

    Make sure, you test it in a separate environment first.

    Hi Umesh,

    In GL under currencies there is a node System currency conversion where you can Change the Accounting and reporting currency.

    Please test this carefully before you make use of that in a live Environment.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi,

    In MS Dynamics 365 , Under General Ledger -> Currencies Menu, I do not find any link that would lead me to change the Accounting and Reporting Currency for that Ledger.

    Could you please guide me with the exact navigation where I can change the Reporting Currency of the Ledger.

    While creating the Ledger I did not choose the Reporting Currency for the Ledger. Now when I create a Payment I get the below message which does not allow me to POST my payment.

    Error message - "The transactions on voucher USA1-140000000 do not balance as per 6/4/2018. (accounting currency: 6,500.00 - reporting currency: 0.00)"

    "Voucher USA1-140000000, date 6/4/2018, account ABC---200110----, transaction currency amount 6,500.00, accounting currency amount 6,500.00, reporting currency amount 0.00, currency USD, text "

    Thanks

    Hi Andre,

    We need to change accounting currency in several legal entities. My client has D365 8.0 Update 15, and i can't see this function on GL module. Is it because of the version, or..?

    Thanks in advance,

    Nagehan

    Hi Nagehan,

    Can you explain why you have to change the accounting currency?

    Thanks

    Hi Nagehan,

    In the meantime, the function has been depreciated. You can read about it on the next page and the suggestion from Microsoft to setup a new legal entity: docs.microsoft.com/.../deprecated-features

    Hi Ludwig,

    Basically it is a data issue, there are over 100 legal entities, and the client mistakenly gave the wrong currency data for a few of them.
    That's why we need to change them.

    Thanks,
    Nagehan

    Hi Andre,

    So i can see this has been depreciated..

    It seems we need to continue with setup of new legal entities.  

    Thanks,
