AX 2012 foreign currency revaluation error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi

when running

Accounts receivable -> Periodic-> Foreigen currency revaluation

I get this error:

Account number for transaction type Exchange rate gain does not exist.

I checked under :

General Legder -> Setup -> Legder  the 6 Default accounts are set

General Legder -> Setup -> Currency ->Currency Reavaluation Accounts the 4 accounts are set for all currencys needed.

Any good idea?$

And why is in Currency Reavaluation Accounts only 4 accounts ( Unrealized finacial Gain / loss are "missing" compared with ledger settigns)

thanks from switzerland

    Hi Pirmin,

    In the ledger form I only have the 4 accounts. Maybe the additional 2 is due to country specific features or customization.

    Can you indicate if you have one or more legal entities in your environment and which countries are used?

    I have seen multiple times issues caused by copying settings from one to another company. Did this happened in your environment as well?

    Hi Pirmin,

    You can check if you have setup and activated the account structures including the mian accounts setup for exchange rate differences.

    If you have copied the setup from another company using another Chart of Accounts definition, but the account numbers are similar, you can try to clear the fields, save the record and retype the accounts.

    Hi

    well the account structure has been created from upgrade ..

    accounts setup for exchange rate differences.  ->

    you mean the check box on the account Settings: Foreigen currency revaluation

    thanks

    Hi Pirmin,

    I was not referring to the check box. This will enable the main account to be revaluated in ledger exchange revaluations.

    I meant the 4 ledger accounts on the Currency form and the 6 (in your case) accounts on the Ledger form.

    Hi Pirmin,

    I would like to know if these accounts are entered manually in these forms or copied from another company?
