Using G/L Inquiry in Foreign Currencies

Use the G/L Inquiry screen to view a summary of your postings in a foreign currency for a designated fiscal year.

Note: The foreign currency exchange functionality is not currently available in Solar as of this release. Use the character-based system to work with foreign currencies.

To view a summary of postings in a foreign currency:

From the G/L menu, select G/L Inquiry to display the G/L Inquiry screen.
Select the customer and account that you want to perform an inquiry on.
Use the Currency Exchange ($) hot key to display the Display Currency prompt.
In the Display Currency field, press F10 to select from a list of currencies and press Enter.
In the Calculate Exchange field, press F10 to select from one of the following two methods of calculating the exchange:

as of Current Date - Converts each amount from the base currency using the exchange rate for the current date. The system then displays the currency and exchange rate used for the conversion in the upper right corner of the screen.
Historically - Converts each amount from the base currency using the exchange rate that was in effect on the date of each transaction. The system displays the currency used for the conversion, but not the exchange rate, in the upper right corner of the screen.

Follow the instructions given in the Making a Basic G/L Inquiries procedure.
