Realized Gain / Loss Criteria

The Realized Gain / Loss Criteria screen allows you to define the input criteria used in the Realized Gain / Loss Process. The process records currency realized gains and losses on documents that have been fully paid.

It selects documents from payables, receivables and optionally, work in progress, that have a zero balance in document currency but, due to currency fluctuations, have a balance in company or base currency. The process creates journal entries to adjust the balances and generates the Realized Gain / Loss report. For more information about the report, see Realized Gain / Loss (Report).

For an overview of currency, see Multi-Currency Overview.
