Note:

Amount override only applies on pre-tax input member. Other data source members use calculated FX rate based on the FX override amount provided divided by entity currency value. For example:
  • PermGS002, Entity Currency, Pre Tax Input → 2,000
  • PermGS002, Entity Currency, Tax → 700 (2,000 * .35)

Below are the numbers when translated:

  • PermGS002, USD, Pre Tax Input → 10,000 (Based on the Amount override provided)
  • PermGS002, USD, Tax → 3500 (700 * (10,000 / 2000))
