Revaluation of AP Documents: Generated Transactions

When you a perform revaluation of open AP documents, the system creates a revaluation batch with the results of the revaluation. This auto-reversing batch is automatically reversed on the date at the beginning of the next financial period.

The batch updates the unrealized gain or loss account specified for the currency with the calculated gain or loss amount on the Currencies (CM202000) form. The system calculates the difference between the revalued balance and the original balance in the Difference column for each account in the selected currency.

Revaluation gains and losses are included in the net income on the period-end reports.
