GL195


GL195 - Translation Calculation



Run Translation Calculation (GL195) to translate one company's base
currency balance to the base currency of another company for reporting and
consolidation. You can also use GL195 to consolidate units.



**Processing Effect

Information is translated based on the From Company parameters. If the
company base currencies are different, the account balances are translated
to the consolidation company's base currency based on the translation rate
defined in Currency Table Translation Rates (CU20.1) and the translation code
defined in Translation Code (CU05.1).

The Rate Type you select for the translation code in CU05.1 affects
how the base currency amounts are translated. If you selected Ending
Historical,
or Historical Balance, amounts are reversed. If you selected Average, amounts
are not reversed.
If the To Company uses zone balancing, offset transactions are generated
in your transaction gain and loss accounts. Offset transactions are the
difference
in amounts between the exchange rate and the translation rate. Company zone
accounts are defined in Interzone Relationships (GL30.1).
This program processes the account balance actual amount in the From
Company and creates transactions in the To Company. The Translation Level
field determines the consolidated level at which the From Company translates
to the To Company.
If you run this program for a range of periods, the resulting journal
entries are created for the last period in the range, or to the current period
if the last period is closed. The journal entries have a "CT" source code
and a Released status. You must post these journal entries before you close
the accounting period for the consolidation period.
