Realized Gain/Loss - How to book manually

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

Hi all, 

We have a balance sheet account where the open transactions are posted manually i.e. not through the AR/AP modules but just via the normal General Journal process. These open balances are then settled with the settlement also posted manually in D365 via a GL Journal. My question is, is there a way to post a Realized FX Gain/Loss manually where the original amount is nil but there is an amount in the accounting/functional currency? 

For example how do I post the Realized Gain below? I want my original amount to be nil as I will be running revaluation on this account so need this to be correct.

Original Currency Original Amount Accounting Amount

Open Transaction 31st March 2020

GBP 12,000 16,000
Settlement 15th April 2020 GBP -12,000 -16,500
Realized Gain GBP 0 500

Thanks!

    Hi Dearbhla,

    You can post the 500 as accounting amount without specifying the foreign currency.

    Alternatively, there is a GL currency revaluation job. In your scenario, I doubt if this will work as it will not consider individual transactions, but will evaluate the balance, which is now zero.

    Hi,

    Have you tried running the GL foreign currency revaluation job before and after making the settlement?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    At the time of settlement, was there different exchange rate? As other suggested di you run Forex revaluation in General ledger > Periodic?
