Guidelines for Amount, Exchange Rate, and Currency Mode Fields for Batch Invoices
Observe these guidelines to determine how to enter amounts, exchange rates, and currency modes for domestic and foreign transactions when processing foreign batch invoices:
Type of Transaction |
Description of Values for Multicurrency Fields |
---|---|
Domestic |
If the currency code of the transaction (identified by the value in the Currency Code field, VJCRCD) is equal to the currency code of the company, the transaction is a domestic transaction. Enter the transaction amount in the Gross Amount field (VJAG) and enter D in the Currency Code field (VJCRRM). Do not enter an exchange rate. If you are entering discount information, complete the Discount Available field (VJADSC). If you leave the Discount Available field blank, and you entered a payment term (VJPTC), the system calculates the discount based on the payment term. If you leave both the Discount Available and the Payment Term fields blank, the system calculates the discount based on the payment term in the Customer Master by Line of Business table (F03012). If you are entering tax information, complete the Taxable Amount (VLATXA), Non-Taxable Amount (VLATXN), and Tax Amount (VLSTAM) fields. If you leave these fields blank, the system calculates the amounts based on the tax rate area (VJTXA) and tax explanation code (VJEXR1) that you entered for the record. If you also leave the Tax Rate/Area and Tax Explanation Code fields blank, the system calculates the tax amounts based on the Tax Rate/Area and Tax Explanation Code fields in F03012 table. |
Foreign |
If the currency code of the transaction (identified by the value in the Currency Code field, VJCRCD) is different from the currency code of the company, the transaction is a foreign transaction. Enter the transaction amount in the Currency Amount field (VJACR) and enter F in the Currency Mode field (VJCRRM). The system calculates the domestic amount based on the Exchange Rate field (VJCRR). If you are entering discount information, complete the Foreign Discount Available field (VJCDS). If you are entering tax information, complete the Foreign Taxable Amount (VJCTXA), Foreign Non-Taxable Amount (BJCTXN), and Foreign Tax Amount (VJCTAM) fields. |
Domestic side of a foreign transaction |
If the currency code of the transaction (identified by the value in the Currency Code field, VJCRCD) is different from the currency code of the company, enter the domestic amount in the Gross Amount field (VJAG). Unlike a foreign transaction, you do not enter an amount in the Currency Amount field. Enter D in the Currency Mode field (VJCRRM). The system calculates the foreign amount based on the exchange rate (VJCRR). If you are entering discount information, complete the Foreign Discount Available field (VJCDS). If you are entering tax information, complete the Foreign Taxable Amount (VJCTXA), Foreign Non-Taxable Amount (BJCTXN), and Foreign Tax Amount (VJCTAM) fields. |
