Realized Gain

Enter the account number to use when generating a realized gain due to changing currency exchange rates.

Note: This field maintains a G/L account number. The account number you enter in this field must be a valid account number in the Chart of Accounts.

The field works in combination with the Currency Revaluation Report. When you run that utility, you can choose to realize gain/loss; if you do so, the currency gain or loss is posted to the realized account specified here rather than the unrealized account.
