Hello,

 

Does anyone know where i can find a complete listing of the details and benefits of upgrading Management Reporter to RU2?  For instance, full details and instructions regarding the multicurrency integration?

 

Thank you in  advance

    Dan,

    You can find the SL 2011 Guide at the following location:mbs.microsoft.com/.../General.aspx

    Also, the blog is a good source of information: blogs.msdn.com/.../dynamicscpm

    Did you have a specific question on the multicurrency integration or just curious on how it works in general with Management Reporter?

    Thanks,

    April

    ok, here is my issue. I have Management Reporter Version, 2.1.1029.30.  I also have a Mexican division, reported in peso,  amongst my company.  I need to make consolidated financial statements generated in US Dollar.  I have been having a horrible time trying to get the Mexican Division to convert to dollar and report in Management reporter. I have found various methods of converting the peso to the dollar, such as creating individual currencies for each exchange rate table, than applying those currencies to specific accounts.  I havent tried this yet, and i was hoping that the RU2 upgrade will help me do this conversion.  My problem shouldnt be this complicated.

    Dan,

    It can be done with the use of the Financial Statement Translation module and Consolidation files. In the Peso database, you would want to set up a new Reporting Currency Ledger, then use FST to translate the account balances from Peso to USD into the new ledger, then generate a consolidation file for the new ledger id. You would also create a new Reporting Currency Ledger in the USD database, then read in the Consolidation file into the USD database and then report off that new ledger id in Management Reporter.

    You can select the ledger ID in the book code field in the column definition in Management Reporter.

    Thanks,

    Are there any step by steps on how to do this?  We are currently working on this other method where we create different currencies.  so for example, for each of the 5 types of translations that need to be done, ie historical, spot, etc, would have their own currency linked to an exchange rate table.  Then these currencies would be applied to each of the accounts related to the type of exchange rate needed.  I would then pull these into management reporter.  That's the hard part is that i don't know if this method i just explained will work or even be able to be pulled into management reporter.  Thank you so much for taking the time to help me here, this is going on a 5 month problem i have been trying to solve.
