In this routine you can only work with existing postings. Only postings from the G/L transaction file posted to a main account with Consolidation type set to 3 are shown, i.e., the posting that should be translated using the historic rate. This routine can be used for changing/adding the original translation period for, e.g., depreciation transactions that are to be translated according to a historic rate of the acquisition transaction.

Note: This program can only be reached if you are working in an originating company.

Note: You can only add/change the translation period. All of the remaining fields are retrieved from the G/L transaction file and cannot be changed. The period you enter may not be a period later than the accounting period.

  1. Select the Work with G/L translation periods menu item.
  2. You access G/L translation period maintenance. Select an account and click OK.
  3. On the detail panel, complete the following field:
    4. Translation period
    Enter the translation period you want to change or add to the G/L transaction.

    Click OK.

  4. You access G/L translation period maintenance with the updated G/L translation period. Exit the routine.
