Revalue Payables page

Prerequisites

Vouchers must be posted before you can run revaluation, and they must be marked for revaluation to be selected by the PS/AP Revaluation process.

Revaluation Request Parameters

Field or Control

Description

As of Date

Enter the as of date. Generally this date is the same as your period start date.

Rate Type

Enter a currency rate type to determine the exchange rate to be used in revaluation. The value you enter here overrides the rate type from the original voucher.

Check Only

Select to run the PS/AP Revaluation process without distributing the accounting entries to the PeopleSoft General Ledger.

When the Check Only check box is selected, accounting entries are created, but are marked Ignore; therefore, they are not available for distribution to PeopleSoft General Ledger. As long as this check box is selected, you can run this process as many times as needed to evaluate results using various rate types. Each time that you run the process, it deletes any entries identified with the value Ignore (from the previous run) and creates new entries.

Note: The system does not generate document sequencing when running the PS/AP Revaluation process in check only mode.

Revaluation Accounting Values

Field or Control

Description

Accounting Date

Enter the accounting date that is used as the date for each generated revaluation entry. The system stores the accounting date with the revalued amount of each item.

Account

Use to override the default accounts payable account for the revaluation adjustment. The accounts payable account is defined on the Accounting Entry template. The unrealized gain and loss accounts defined on the Accounting Entry template are used to offset this adjustment.

Note: Only the account is overridden; all other ChartFields remain. If you are using alternate accounting, the alternate account is blank.

Business Units

Field or Control

Description
