Exchange Rate Difference

Posted on by 557

Hi. 

We are trying to do a settlement for a vendor purchase invoice in 2018 with 2 payments made in 2017. 

The following is the synopsis. 

APP-0002801     27-11-17     USD  80,070.000     (Made from our USD Bank account)

APP-0002842     27-12-17     USD  80,070.000      (Made from our SAR Bank account with rate 1 USD = 3.755 SAR)

110003667_069  11-01-18     USD -80,070.000

110003667_069  11-01-18     USD -80,070.000

As you can see, we are settling the invoices made in 2018 with the payments made in 2017. The settlement is made as of 30 Dec 2018 (today). 

We notice that our exchange rate difference account has an (increase) of approx USD 58,757 (SAR 220,632.89). The voucher is as you can see below. Why is this happening?

Note that the amount currency is USD and it is 0.00. Amount in SAR is 220,632.89. Appreciate your support in understanding this.

    RE: Exchange Rate Difference

    Hi,

    SAR is your accounting currency, right?

    What is the exchange rate that was used when posting the two invoices for 80070 USD?

    The difference between this exchange rate and the exchange rate that was used when posting the payment should explain the amount posted as exchange rate gain.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
