GL196 - Report Currency Translation
**Form Purpose
Run Report Currency Translation (GL196) to translate the company base
currency and report currencies.
This program compares the ending and period base currency amounts with the
report currency amounts. If there are differences between the two amounts,
report currency translation updates the balances for the report currencies.
For example, if the translation rate increases from 5 to 8 percent, the base
currency amount is multiplied by 3 (the percentage change) to update the
report currency amount. The system creates a journal entry to record the
adjustments.
For more information, see the Currency User Guide.
**Process at a Glance
The company base currency is translated using the translation table rate
defined in CU20.1 (Currency Table Translation Rates) and the translation code
defined in CU05.1 (Translation Code).
The Rate Type you select for the translation code in CU05.1 affects how the
base currency and report currency amounts are translated. If you selected
Ending or Historical, the year-to-date amounts are updated. If you selected
Average, the amount for the period you select in this form is updated.
If your company uses zone balancing, offset transactions are generated in
your transaction gain and loss accounts. Offset transactions are the amount
difference between the exchange rate amount and the translation rate amount.
Company zone accounts are defined in GL30.1 (Interzone Relationships).
