Steps: Enter Translated Beginning Balance Amounts for Alternate Ledgers Midyear

Steps: Enter Translated Beginning Balance Amounts for Alternate Ledgers Midyear

If the translated alternate ledger currency amounts are incorrect on activity lines after you roll balances forward, you can use a book code and web service to make changes.
  1. Create a book code.
    Give the book code a name such as
    Translated Reporting
    .
  2. Include the book code in relevant books.
    Include the book code in books that you use exclusively for reporting in the relevant translation currency.
    Include a blank book code in any books that use the
    Translated Reporting
    book code.
  3. Create a standard journal entry.
    Create the journal entry using the book code and the
    Import Accounting Journal
    web service. Enter the translation adjustment amount as the transaction currency amount in the journal.
  4. Use the book code when running translated reports.
You can now run financial reports for the company in the translation currency using the translated beginning balance amounts that you entered for each currency.
