Use

In this Customizing activity, you maintain target accounts for P&L Transformation.

The P&L Transformation function transforms the realized foreign currency income and expense posted on profit and loss accounts into the functional currency, and moves the functional currency equivalent values to a specified target account within the balance sheet ("retained earnings") or back to the original profit and loss account.

This closes all foreign currency positions and is equivalent to posting a FX swap.

The foreign currency profit and loss account balances can be cleared to the corresponding FX position accounts on the balance sheet.
If P&L Close has been executed first, the foreign currency values are taken from the target account of the P&L Close ("unremitted earnings").
If P&L Transformation is executed initially, the original profit and loss accounts are the relevant source accounts.
Afterwards, the system executes transformation into the functional currency by posting the functional currency equivalent values to the specified target account.

MCA Posting Scheme

  • In the backpack posting scheme, the position account itself is used for this purpose.
  • In the 4-pack posting scheme, the equivalent value account for the position type and currency is used for this purpose.
