GL191


GL191 - Currency Revaluation

**Form Purpose
Run Currency Revaluation (GL191) to calculate a new Lawson General Ledger
company base currency, report currency one, and report currency two balance
using transaction amounts. Any difference in the current balance vs.
calculated balance is posted to the unrealized gain or loss account.

This program revalues amounts for all posting accounts that are defined for
revaluation based on the currency exchange rates in effect. You can revalue
currency at any time, or multiple times, during a specific accounting period
or within an accounting period range. An accounting period range uses the sum
of multiple periods in the adjustment.

For more information, see the Currency User Guide.

**Processing Effect
GL191 creates journal entries for the currency gain and loss accounts defined
in CU03.1 (Currency Gain Loss Accounts) for the transaction currency codes
(From) and the company base (To) currency code.

**More Information
If you want to revalue report currency balances, the Currency Ledger field on
Company (GL10.1) must be set to Yes during all transaction creation. If the
Currency Ledger field was set to No while you used report currencies, run
Currency File Rebuild (GL327) before using GL191.
