Description

Select the method to use in the exchange adjustment:

  • - Exchange adjustments are posted regardless of whether the result is a profit or a loss.

  • - Exchange adjustments are posted only if the result is a loss.

  • - Exchange adjustments use the original exchange rate of the transactions, which are revalued to their original value in the company currency. The effect of any prior exchange adjustment is cancelled.

Date on which Microsoft Dynamics AX finds all transactions that have open (not settled) amounts on that date. Exchange adjustments are made with the exchange rates that are entered in the form for the considered date.

Important Important

When an exchange adjustment is run on a considered date, this date becomes the last exchange adjustment date for the transactions that are adjusted. If you decide to run an exchange adjustment for a considered date that is earlier than the last exchange adjustment date on already adjusted transactions, transactions that are open on the earlier considered date but that have a more recent last exchange adjustment date are not adjusted by the periodic job. The last exchange adjustment date is therefore no longer updated when you make an exchange adjustment of a single transaction, but only when you run the customer exchange adjustment periodic job.
