Posted on by 2,401

Is it possible to import customer and vendor balances into D365 FFO, with a different/custom exchange rate?

    Just an FYI gents, the General Journal data management file includes the exchange rate, but does not include the document/invoice date.. So you have to use the General Journal file to ensure the exchange rate(s) are correct, and then use excel add-in, to update the document/invoice date(s) to ensure Aging is ok.

    Hi James,

    When you use the General Journal entity, like mentioned by Ludwig, you are also able to specify an exchange rate.

    Thanks Sohail

    My posting date is all 31/Aug, but the invoice date I'm using is different on each line.

    I have two questions:

    1. Do you know if it is possible to set a different exchange rate table on the these transactions?

    2. Will the exchange rate derive based on the invoice date, or transaction date?

    Possible for you to add exchange rate with previous date in AX? actually my first preference to resolve your issue from configuration, I don't want from you to customize data entity to full fill your requirement.

    As you said you have date fields from previous systems, then the simple things is to create currency exchange rate with previous dates and then upload data..

    highly recommend to verify this on any testing environment.

    But I'm taking on data for a customer, and they have invoices from their previous system on a different date/time, with an agreed exchange rate.

    So i need to be able to control/input the exchange rate on the line.

    Hi Ludwig

    When i use data management, i use the entity 'Customer invoice journal line'. This imports into the General Journal screen.

    However - when i exported the template for 'Customer invoice journal line', it did not include the exchange rate field.

    Once it is imported, i can open up the journal, and update the exchange rate(s), but there are over 1000 lines that i am working with, and dont want to do it one by one, manually.

    The excel add-in also does not include the exchange rate field

    Hi,

    Can't you import those open balances in a GL journal? In those journals you should be able to modify the exchange rate as required.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
