Business central issue

Hello , BC Community
I'm working on Bc but I have Issue may anyone can help me to understand system behavior or help me to solve this Issue.
1-I post expenses entry from general journal this expenses with foreign currency and I change currency rate Manually from AssistEdit next to the Currency Code 
and the balance account is Bank account with the same foreign currency code and also, change rate manually.
 
General journal entry:
  Type Currency Rate Amount Amount LCY
Dr G/L account USD 49.62 9000 446580
Cr Bank account USD 49.62 9000 446580
  Bank ledger entry USD 49.62 9000 446580
Every thing is right and this is screen shot from the system
When I post this entry the system show Source currency Amount As 5582.25 but it must be 9000.
The local currency still the same and system change foreign currency amount. What actually system do divide amount LCY / Currency rate in Currency card in this date.
totally ignored rate entered manually in transaction.
 
What I wandered here I do this transaction before several times with the same sequence and the system not change any thing I don't know what happened May any one face this Issue?
 
I have the same question (0)

    Hello,
     
    Business Central recalculates the Source Currency Amount during posting using the exchange rate from the Currency Exchange Rate table for that date, not the manually entered rate in the journal.
     
    This happens when a valid rate exists for the posting date, even if you override the rate in the journal.
     
    To fix this, either remove or adjust the exchange rate for that date, or customize the posting logic to force the system to respect the manual rate.

    Hello ,
     
    What you expected is correct, can you check the bc version or if there is an extension published adjusting the system calculation?

    Thank you Pallavi
    I did it and don't change Currency rate in general journal the system get rate (Factor) from currency card and it didn't change foreign currency amount as below.
    but if I change it the system recalculate source currency amount again.

    Hi,
     
    This is not a bug but a design change in v27. The system now recalculates the source currency amount using the Currency Exchange Rate table for the posting date, ignoring the manually entered rate for display purposes in some views. If you want Microsoft to review, raise a support ticket or submit feedback on Business Central Ideas.
     
    Thanks

    Thank you, Rishabh.

    My environment was updated today to version 27.1, and I tested my process again. Everything worked as expected, so it looks like Microsoft has resolved this bug.
