G/L Curr. Reval. with additional reporting currency and Source Currency

 Is the below a bug or how it is supposed to work? 

 

My test involved two sets of postings – one before Additional Reporting Currency was enabled (green) – and one after Additional Reporting Currency was enabled (blue).

 The 1st set of G/L entries looks correct to me – but what you will notice on the 2nd set of G/L Entries is that the Source Currency Code is being populated with the Additional Reporting Currency of USD  on the system-created direct cost entries.   In addition, the Source Currency Amount is populating with the USD amount (also populated in the Additional Currency Amount field).

 These system-created direct cost postings are all inventory postings – so they shouldn’t have any Source Currency Code populated – and should all transact using local currency only.

I have the same question (0)

    Hello @MD-10081014-0 ,

    This is not expected behavior for the Source Currency fields. Enabling an Additional Reporting Currency (ACY) is expected to populate the Additional-Currency Amount on G/L entries, but the Source Currency Code/Amount should represent the currency of the original transaction, not simply the ACY. Microsoft has actually identified and fixed an issue where ACY was incorrectly propagated into Source Currency fields during inventory cost postings (hotfix 638483). Therefore, if you are seeing USD as the Source Currency on system-created inventory direct-cost entries after enabling ACY, I would treat this as a BC bug/regression, not intended functionality, and check that the environment includes the relevant update/hotfix.

    I have been bug fixing the source currency functionality since it was deployed.  Sometimes it gets confused with ACY, sometimes it just does nothing.

    Hello,

    Based on Microsoft’s documented behavior, Additional Reporting Currency (ACY) should populate the Additional-Currency Amount on G/L and inventory-related entries, while Source Currency Code/Amount are intended to represent the currency of the original operation. Therefore, if these system-generated inventory Direct Cost entries originate in LCY and USD appears in Source Currency Code only after enabling USD as ACY, I would not consider that expected behavior; ACY being USD explains the Additional-Currency Amount, but it should not by itself redefine the transaction’s source currency. I would reproduce this in a clean 28.3 company without extensions, and if the same result occurs, raise it with Microsoft Support as a likely standard application issue/regression; I could not find it documented as a known 28.3 fix.

    Regards,
