Definition

Key for account determination in valuating foreign currency amounts posted to balance sheet accounts.

Use

For the valuation of foreign currency balances, the system uses this key to find the accounts for gains and losses from the valuation. You specify which accounts valuation differences are to be posted to under the exchange rate difference key in the system.

Example

You could have valuation differences posted to the same P&L account for all balance sheet accounts or to different accounts based on the currency.
