Revaluate accounts

The purpose of this procedure is to revaluate/revalue the accounts receivable and the accounts payable in connection with monthly statement or annual financial statement for invoices issued in foreign currency (that is, a currency other than the company currency). The procedure compares the exchange rate for a selected date with the rate from the time of the registration. Then a voucher is created for the rate change and this is called to make a currency adjustment or to revaluate the accounts receivable/accounts payable. The invoices that will be adjusted are the preliminary recorded invoices (accounts payable) and unpaid invoices (accounts receivable and accounts payable) for a certain date. You can also choose to automatically create reversal vouchers using accrual accounting.

In the Standard accounts procedure there are separate standard accounts for recording of the adjustment amount.

It is important that the exchange rates in the Currencies procedure are up-to-date before you perform the revaluation. Please note! The AFS rate must be updated manually.
