Setting Corporate Allocation Setup (CAD) - Currency

In a multi-currency environment, the source currencies for any of Values 1, 2 and 3 can be manipulated for postings to the target accounts, and so can Value 4 if it is defined in Business Unit Setup. You can:

  • Transfer any or all of the currency Values to the target accounts, in any combination.
  • Retain any of the currency Value assignments from source to target accounts, for example, using Value 1 as the source for Value 1.
  • Swap any of the currency Values for postings to target accounts in another business unit, for example, to swap the base and reporting currencies select Value 1 as the source for Value 3 and vice versa.
  1. Click the Currency tab in the Corporate Allocation Rules window.
  2. Select Unused for any of the Value Source fields to prevent that currency value from being transferred from the source accounts.
    Note: At least one currency value must be selected.
  3. Specify this information:
    Value 1 Source

    Determines the source value to be used as Value 1 on the target transactions.

    Value 2 Source

    Determines the source value to be used as Value 2 on the target transactions.

    Value 3 Source

    Determines the source value to be used as Value 3 on the target transactions.

    Value 4 Source

    Determines the source value to be used as Value 4 on the target transactions.

  4. Save your changes.
