Accumulated Purchase Order Value

This field displays the accumulated total of purchase orders tied to this specific letter of credit. You can refresh this amount with the Rebalance Letters of Credit utility.

On Fixed Rate documents, you may not change the exchange rate once line items have been added.

On Variable Rate documents, if line items exist, you receive the following warning prior to the value of the items being adjusted: "Change in exchange rate will affect the domestic value on existing lines. Line item extended costs will not be adjusted.

If you choose to go ahead with the adjustment on a PO header that is tied to a Letter of Credit in base currency, the system backs out the (ordered amt * old rate) from the old accumulated ordered value and adds back the (ordered amt * new rate).
