Treasury and Risk Management Transaction Manager
Reporting for a given period / evaluation of flows within the reporting period
All open futures positions are revalued by the respective futures and options exchange at the end of each trading day. This mark-to-market valuation is used to calculate the gains and losses (= variation margin) of the futures positions resulting from daily market fluctuations. The variation margin is credited or debited on a daily basis. If this brings the balance below the initial margin, enough capital must be injected to restore the original initial margin.
In this case, the key date is one day before the start of the period.
This key figure is shown in the specified display currency, which may differ from the original currency (currency of the company code, position currency, borrowing/sale currency, investment purchase currency, and so on). If this is the case, the currency is translated using the translation type specified in the selection screen.
The default translation type is "001", with currency translation at the middle rate and today as the key date. However, you can define and use your own translation type.
The amount in position currency is used as the basis for translating this key figure into the display currency.
