Projected Gains and Losses Report

Use the Projected Gains and Losses Report to review open foreign (non-ledger) currency invoices, debit memos, and chargebacks revalued according to the revaluation rate that you specify.

The report compares the revalued amount of each debit item with the entered amount and prints the unrealized gain or loss.

The report summarizes by customer and prints, for each transaction type, the total debit item foreign currency amount by currency and the unrealized gain or loss, with subtotals for each transaction type and customer.

The report includes a final summary section at the end by currency to review your unrealized gain and loss totals for each currency. The net revaluation gain or loss totals, calculated as the difference between the revaluation gain and revaluation loss, average out to the same for the customer/transaction type totals and the currency totals.

Use this report according to your customer account and open balance reviews and revaluations.

Selected Report Parameters

Conversion Type

Conversion rate type to use as the revaluation rate.

Conversion Date

Date that corresponds to the conversion rate to use as the revaluation rate. The rate date and the rate type together determine the revaluation rate used to revalue your debit items.

For example, if you’re using the Spot rate for June 1, 2014, enter 01-Jun-14. If you’re using Period Average as your rate type, enter a date that is within the Receivables accounting period for the Period Average rate you defined.

If you enter a rate type and rate date that don’t exist for a currency, the report doesn’t calculate unrealized gains or losses for that currency.
