Sage ERP Accpac General Ledger 6.0

image\field_bt.gifG/L Accounts — Currency Tab

This tab is available only if the Multicurrency option is selected:

  • On the Company Profile form in Common Services.

  • On the G/L Options form.

  • For the account on the Detail tab of this form.

The Currency Information tab lets you specify which currencies are valid for the account.

To specify currencies

  1. Choose whether you want to allow posting from all currencies defined in Common Services, or only specific ones.

  2. Choose the currency you want appearing as a default during transaction entry.

  3. If you chose specified currencies, enter each of the currencies in which you want to enter transactions.

Even if you choose all currencies, use the table to specify which currencies you want to revalue automatically for the account (if any).

Double-click with the mouse, or press the Spacebar, to turn on Revaluation for a particular currency.

You can save disk space by reducing the number of valid source currencies for an account. When an amount is posted in a valid source currency, the system creates Source, Functional, and Equivalent fiscal sets to store original and converted currency amounts.
