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 The last exchange adjustment date is therefore no longer updated when you make an exchange adjustment of a single transaction, but only when you run the exchange adjustment periodic job.
