Journal vouchers now auto-fill the exchange rate field when a foreign currency is selected, using the current system rate.

​
Business Value

  • Prevents exchange rate entry errors on foreign-currency journal vouchers
  • Speeds up JV creation by auto-filling the current system rate
  • Reduces the risk of posting at an incorrect rate
  • Keeps the rate editable so users can override when a specific rate applies

​
Use Cases

  • Accountant selects EUR on a new journal voucher — the exchange rate fills automatically from the system rate, saving manual lookup.
  • Finance manager overrides the auto-filled rate for a negotiated rate — the field remains fully editable.
  • GL team creates multiple foreign-currency JVs — each one auto-fills the correct current rate, eliminating repetitive manual input.

How It Works

Where: Back Office → General Ledger → Journal Vouchers
  1. Open or create a journal voucher.
  2. Select a foreign currency from the currency field.
  3. The exchange rate field automatically populates with the current system exchange rate configured for that currency.
  4. Review the auto-filled rate. Edit the value directly if a different rate applies.
  5. Proceed with creating or posting the journal voucher as usual.
On each line, the Currency field sets the line’s currency, and the Exchange factor field holds the rate auto-filled from the current system rate. Journal voucher line items with the Currency and Exchange factor fields highlighted
