Realized Exchange Gain/Loss Issue

Posted on by MC-03092004-0
Hello,
 
Business Central is posting some erroneous transactions when making foreign currency bank deposits, applying to customer invoices.
 
Scenario:
Receipting a 2000 USD amount in Bank Deposit, using a USD designated bank account.  Then applying this entry to a 2000 USD invoice (the LCY of the company is GBP).
 
Expected Outcome:
In the Accounts Receivable G/L account, 2 entries are expected:
1. Credit 2000 USD (source currency amount) and Credit 1571.69 GBP amount (spot rate is 1.2725).
2. Debit 0 USD and Debit 23.01 GBP being the Realized Exchange Gain on the transactions
(the contra entries being the bank and the realized exchange gain account)
 
Actual Outcome:
1. Credit 2000 USD and Credit 1571.69 GBP - this line is OK
2. Credit 2000 USD and Debit 23.01 GBP - this line is an ERROR (the credit of 2000 USD is a duplicate of the above line).
 
This is shown below, taken from the ledger entries of the accounts receivable G/L account.
 
The tope line shown above which is in error is a system generated entry, that is made as part of the Bank Deposit, using a payment journal.
 
Is this caused by a configuration error that has been made, or is a bug in Business Central?
 
Thanks,
Matt

    Its a bug, Microsoft is aware of it. The last time it was mentioned they said it would be fixed in v25.1. There is a thread on yammer about it - Viva Engage : Dynamics 365 Business Central Partner Community (Formerly: Development) : View Conversation
