This batch job uses the adjustment exchange rate to make exchange rate adjustments (gain and loss entries) to G/L, customer, vendor and bank entries. The amount you enter in this field is relevant for the currency in the Currency Code field.

The following example shows how you can enter exchange rate amounts in the Currency Exchange Rates window. Note that the blank code in the Relational Currency Code field indicates LCY:

In this example, the adjustment exchange rate for USD to LCY is defined as 64.8824 LCY for 100 USD. The program uses the information in the Currency Exchange Rates window to calculate the adjustment exchange rate.

You define the period for which this exchange rate is valid in the Starting Date field. The exchange rate on this line is valid from the date in the Starting Date field on this line until the date in the Starting Date field on the next line.

Important
If you post in an additional reporting currency, you must retain all the exchange rate amounts you enter in the Currency Exchange Rates window for this currency.
