Currency

Use these processing options to specify the As If currency code and the As Of date.

1. As If Currency

View domestic or foreign amounts in a currency other than the currency in which the amounts were originally entered. Specify the currency code in which to view the as if currency. For example, to view domestic or foreign monetary amounts in the euro, specify EUR.

If you leave this processing option blank, the system does not display the As If Currency Code field in the header, nor does it display the As If Amount and As If Open Amount columns in the grid area.

Note: As if currency amounts are stored in temporary memory, and are not written to a table.

2. As Of Date

Specify an as of date for the As If Currency processing option. This system uses this date to retrieve the exchange rate from the Currency Exchange Rates table (F0015).

If you specify a currency code in the As If Currency processing option and leave this processing option blank, the system uses the system date.

Note: A valid exchange rate between the domestic or foreign currency and the as if currency must exist in the F0015 table, based on the as of date.
