Advanced Special Functions: Customer/Supplier Account Currency Normaliser

Customer/Supplier Account Currency Normaliser

Customer/Supplier Account Currency Normaliser

The purpose of the feature is to normalise a default foreign currency Customer or Supplier A/R or A/P account that contains local currency transactions into ONLY transactions in the default foreign currency.

The value of this feature is that where mixed currency transactions exist, account statements can show conversion variances from the local currency transactions that have to be converted at the current rate for the currency.

The solution to this problem is to retrospectively convert old local currency transactions into the default foreign currency.

First select the account. The message below will report the state of the account. If there are local currency transactions that can be converted, the button at the bottom will be available to effect the normalisation.

Warning WARNING: Retrospective conversion can lead to errors in the retrospective period Control Analysis for the Ledger. These should be ignored.
