Definition

The transaction currency of the document is transferred directly to the Special Purpose Ledger and stored there.

If you choose this option, you must be aware that an automatic clearing of the posted accounts cannot be guaranteed at transaction currency level.

Example: account that is not managed with open items. A posting is made to the account in US$ which is 'cleared' in Italian Lira by an offsetting entry. The clearing can be made in the local currency which is identical for both postings, but cannot be made in the transaction currency. The amounts are thus different in the individual currencies and the account is not cleared on the basis of the transaction currency.
