Secondary Translation Lines

Secondary translation lines default from primary lines for spreadsheet journal entry. This applies to translate lines where the secondary journal lines must be generated from the primary lines as in the case of an external import where only primary lines are entered.

Changes were made so that when the foreign currency of the primary line is the same as that of the base currency of the translate line, then the rate, type, and exchange rate are defaulted from the corresponding primary line when editing imported journal entries from flat file or spreadsheet journal entry. That is to say, if the transaction currency of the primary ledger and base currency of the translate ledger are the same, then the system defaults the exchange rate from the primary journal lines in spreadsheet journal entry just as the system does in online journal entry. If the foreign currency of the primary line is not the same as that of the base currency of the translate line, the system uses the exchange rate from the rate type specified on the ledger group of the Translate ledger.
