Payables Open Items Revaluation Report

Use the Payables Open Items Revaluation report to revalue open items, accounting for changes in the value of liabilities due to foreign currency rate changes.

Open items include invoices, prepayments, credit memos, and debit memos that are unpaid as of the last date of the revaluation period you specify.

The report determines the manual adjustment to your general ledger balance for the difference between the original and revalued balances. The report calculates the difference for each liability account with a total for each balancing segment. You should reverse the general ledger entry at the beginning of the next period to synchronize payables and general ledger balances.

To provide a complete listing of your liabilities, the report also includes open items in the ledger currency. Those items use a revaluation rate of 1.

Note: Payments are included if the last reporting date is after the payment accounting header date and the accounting date is outside of the reporting period.

You can run this report from the Scheduled Processes work area.

Before running the report, if you use a:

  • Period rate, define rates on the Currency Rates Manager page.

  • A daily rate, define daily rates for the rate type, whether the rate type is predefined or user-defined.
