Exchange gains/losses transactions are not being reflected in my A/P Historical Aging report, and throwing off reconcilliation to GL

Posted on by 105

Hello All,

I am using Microsoft Dynamics GP 9.0.  It appears that some multi-currency transactions are throwing off the balance between AP and GL.  When these transactions are posted, they correctly generate the amounts for Exchange Gains/Losses to the GL, however the AP Historical Aged Trial Balance report does not reflect these amounts, which results in the GL Balance being more than AP by these amounts.

Is there an updated AP Historical Aging Report or some sort of fix for this?  This is extremely urgent!!

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

-T.Davis

    Hi  Bruce,

    Is the Originating Posted Date the one in the GL  or the sub-ledger?

    McCarthy,

    Any more details on the 'link between the HATB reports and the MC020104/5' ?

    I am using GP 2010, and experiencing revaluation-related issues with GL/Sub Recon.

    Regards,

    I would also suggest checking the distributions on your payment apply transactions or any revaluation transactions - any missing accounts because the Realized should have offset all the Unrealized.  

    Having said that -in GP10  we have also seen some interesting balances on the HATB reports for both AR and AP due to MC gain/loss - in our case as with Dale's comment - balances appear that should not as they are paid and in history.  There is a link between the HATB reports and the MC020104/5 tables that seems to cause an issue with paid historical amounts showing up.  I am wondering if there was a 'fix' done for your issue on GP9 that causes the opposite issue on GP10.

    The originating posted date impacts the Aged Trial Balance report. When you apply payment to invoice in Apply payables Document window it shows for example TRX Date of 3/31/2011 but the Originating Posted Date might be 4/04/2011. So when you run Historical Aged Trial Balance for 03/31/2011 it doesn't reflect but if run with 4/04/2011 it shows. So for example the end of March it is a reconciling item but in April it will balance. Run a smartlist in account transactions and locate JE created when applying payment to invoice. Then add column Originating Posted Date and see what the date.

    Which report are you using to balance A/P with G/L? If your current A/P report does not show the invoices in question as open, and you are using historical to balance, then somehow the historical report has gotten out of sinc with your records and is still showing them as open when they are closed. We have had this happen but on the A/R side (in fact, we have one right now, but luckily, the historical shows all the items as balanced and zero but still showing on the historical report).  We have had to ask our ISV to go on the server and "fix" the historical side to show the invoices are closed out completely so they will not show on the historical A/R report anymore.  Maybe the same issue applies to your A/P side.

    If the amounts are still open and are showing on current and historical A/P, then I am not sure why the A/P reports are not showing the exch rate g/l accurately.  If it occurred consistently, I would have thought it is a setup issue, but if it is intermittent, is it only happening on specific vendors? If the problem always happens on specific vendors, then you may have a card issue with those vendors.

    If you have an ISV, I would contact them to see where the problem lies.

    Good luck.

    Best regards,

    Dale Coulthard
