Understanding the Multicurrency Intercompany Post

The Multicurr Interco Conversion Post program (R8909801EB) is a version of the General Ledger Post program (R09801) that creates all entries in the F0911 table, including AE offset and AM adjusting entries, based on the new base currency in the F0010 table. However, unlike the General Ledger Post program, the Multicurr Interco Conversion Post program does not:

  • Post to the F0902 table, which saves valuable processing time.

    Instead, it marks the entries as posted so that when you run the Repost Account Ledger program (R099102) later in the base currency conversion process, the system selects entries and posts them to the F0902 table.

  • Create reversing entries.

To determine the exchange rate, the Multicurr Interco Conversion Post program uses the historical date (HDGJ), if applicable, or the general ledger date (DGJ). The program marks all entries as posted, even though they are not actually posted, so that when you run the Repost Account Ledger program later in the conversion process, the system selects the entries and updates them in the F0902 table.

Note: The Multicurr Interco Conversion Post program does not convert a transaction if the account or business unit was changed from a blank to a nonblank posting edit code after the original transaction was posted. This applies only to posting edit codes that were originally blank and have since changed to a nonblank value such as I (inactive), M (machine-generated), or N (nonposting).
