How You Limit a Journal to a Single Currency

You can enforce single currency journals for a journal source. The limit applies to journals entered on the Create Journal page and to journals that are imported. The Import Journals process automatically separates the journals by currency.

Here's how you set it up.

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the Specify Ledger Options task:

   • Offering: Financials

   • Functional Area: General Ledger

   • Task: Specify Ledger Options, with the primary ledger scope set

2. On the Specify Ledger Options page, enable the Limit a journal to a single currency option in the Journal Processing Entry section. The option is automatically enabled for any associated secondary ledgers and reporting currencies.

3. Go to the Manage Journal Sources task:

   • Offering: Financials

   • Functional Area: General Ledger

   • Task: Manage Journal Sources

4. On the Manage Journal Sources page, enable the Limit Journal to Single Currency option for the applicable journal sources.

   Note: You can't enable the option for these journal sources: Allocations, AutoCopy, Balance Transfer, Closing Journal, and Revaluation.
