Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

As we know that GLE does not contain the original currency code on normal GL account, is it possible to use bank account instead of normal GL account? we just know that the original currency required to find in bank account ledger entries. Could anyone knows any drawback / side effect of this idea?Thanks

Best Regards,
Anson

    Normally you would get the original currency in Cust. Ledger Entries, Vendor Ledger Entries & Bank Ledger Entries.

    When it comes to G/L Ledger, you would not be able to use Bank Account as you need to setup the General Posting Setups for Sales & Purchase posting and need to select G/L Account only.

    Alternatively, you can customize and add few fields in G/L Entries as per your need.

    I do not think it would be a good idea to assign separate bank cards to all the financial GL accounts, there might be quite many of those (however I do not see any technical limitation of why you would not be able to do this). I think it will not be convenient. Better to let users just write the needed currency and currency amount in the description field.

    Our customers indeed had similar needs, we sometime go to a small customization and add to GL Ledger Entries more fields - Original currency, Original Currency Amount, Original Dt Currency Amount and Original Cr Currency Amount.

    Hi Mahesh,

    We majorly need to export Ledger with original currency for the whole financial year to auditor for their checking.

    so that we have an idea using bank account ledger combine with GLE to do this.
