Incorrect recalculation in expense reports

edited Mar 2, 2009 7:14AM in SuitePeople HR / US Payroll 6 comments

Hi,

Anybody encoding their expense reports in multi-currency? We are encountering strange behavior in NetSuite, when it recalculates the foreign amount based on the computed amount. For example:

> Create expense report and add line item with the ff.  information:
     - Currency: Nepalese Rupee
     - Foreign amount: 6350.00
     - Exchange rate: 0.01286174
     - Amount (in base currency): 81.67 (computed based on Foreign amount * exchange rate)

> Save expense report and view the record and line item information displayed include:
     - Currency: Nepalese Rupee
     - Foreign amount: 6349.84 (NetSuite changed the original amount!!!)
     - Exchange rate: 0.0128617 (Displays up to 7 decimal places only)
     - Amount: 81.67


This is very incorrect, since NetSuite shouldn't changed the foreign amount value. The logic of the recalculation is wrong because it is based on the rounded off Amount value, 81.67, when the actual result when you multiply foreign amount and exchange rate is 81.672049.

Howdy, Stranger!
