Hello

I just migrated from SL2011 to Version SL2015 CU2

In 2015,  the case of cross-currency partial payment application is being presented, from where instead of considering the exchange rate of  payment date, is been used the exchange rate of the invoice record for conversion.

In versions 2011 and 2018, is using the payment date exchange rate.  Which is correct.

Example:

STEP 1.

Date : 24 FEB 2020                         Currency Rate  $15.00

INVOICE :  US 100. 00                    BASE: 1,500.00

PDF : Customer Trial Balance All Documents MC - 08.620- 1   

 

STEP 2.

DATE: 28 FEB 2020                          Currency Rate $20.00

Payment is recorded in base currency, for the equivalent of foreign currency by 50%. 

 $50.00 US - Base Currency 1,000.00

PDF Customer Trial Balance All Documents MC - 08.620- 2

 

STEP 3.

DATE: 28 FEB 2020                          Currency Rate $20.00

The payment is applied to the corresponding invoice, must remain in the Customer Balance :

 $50.00 USD and $750.00 in Base Currency

The application process uses the Currency Rate  of the invoice, remaining on the customer's balance:

$33.33 US and 499.95 in Base Currency

I should mention that if the payment is fully applied, the process is done correctly.

 

Thanks

    Article 4338772 refers to the AP module mentioning that is resolved in SL2015 CU2

    Hello,

    You may have to create a case in support to get the Hotfix.

    KB 3045209.

    BUG #: 35203

    Symptoms

    Consider the following scenario in Accounts Receivable in Microsoft Dynamics SL:

    You enter an invoice in a foreign currency.

    You apply a base currency payment to the invoice.

    When you do this, you notice that an incorrect realized gain or loss is calculated. This causes the payment application batch to suspend.

    Resolution

    A supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft. However, this hotfix is intended to correct only the problem that is described in this article.

    This problem was reported as issue number 35203.  

    Best Regards,
