Use
In this Customizing activity, you maintain target accounts for Adjustment of FX Position Account [FXA].
Foreign currency positions in the balance sheet represent the potential economic exchange rate risk in the respective currency. These positions have to be measured and valuated on the reference date using the current exchange rate. The gain or loss that is calculated is an economic value that has to be included in the financial statements.
The Adjust Functional Currency Amount of Position Account (4-Pack Only) function allows you to update the functional currency balance on the position account. For each transaction currency, the system compares the balance in functional currency on the position account with the balance on the respective equivalent account. The difference is posted with a transaction amount of zero in foreign currency and the result in functional currency from the position account to the customized FX clearing account.
