Current Domestic Amount

When you select the Current Domestic Amount method, you pay the current domestic amount of the voucher in the domestic currency.

For example, you enter a voucher in USD for a company that has a base currency of CAD. If you select the Current Domestic Amount method, you pay the domestic amount of the voucher in the domestic currency (CAD). Unlike the Voucher Domestic Currency method, which does not calculate a gain or loss, the system calculates a gain or loss if the exchange rate at the time that you enter the voucher is different from the exchange rate at the time that you pay the voucher.

Unlike some other methods, the system does not use the processing option for the GL date or the exchange rate effective date. Instead, it uses the current (the system date) exchange rate in the F0015 table. If a current exchange rate is not set up, the system uses the previous exchange rate as illustrated in this example:

Date	Exchange Rate
June 1	1.5
June 15	2.0
June 30	2.5

If you pay the voucher on June 10 (current date), the system uses the exchange rate for June 1 (1.5), because no exchange rate for June 10 exists. Similarly, if you pay the voucher on June 29, the system uses the exchange rate for June 15 (2.0). In both examples, the system uses the exchange rate associated with the previous date.
