PC Conversion of GL Foreign Currency Transactions
Hello Projects Community
We have a client who has a requirement to have PC convert some foreign currency transactions at the same exchange rate as is
used by the GL, which is a "user defined" rate and NOT a value from
the PS_RT_RATE_TBL.
Example: In the GL journal:
Currency = QAR
Amount = -56,259.74
Rate Type = blank
Exchange Rate = .27429898
Base Currency = CAD
Base Amount =-15,431.99
The base amount of -15,431.99 is what is posted in the Monetary Amount in
the journal line in GL.
However, when this transaction goes to Project
Costing, the PC_MULTI_CUR job tries to find a value from the
PS_RT_RATE_TBL. Because the rate type is blank, it then defaults to the
NoRate step and posts the Foreign Amount from GL to the Resource Amount in PC.
The result is the same if the rate type field is populated with the exchange
rate.
