Schedule the Gains/Losses and Revaluations Process

You can schedule the Gains/Losses and Revaluations process to run at a later time (after normal business hours, for example).

To schedule the Gains/Losses and Revaluations process to run at a later time:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Accounting > Gains and Losses.
  2. In Translation Date on the Gains/Losses and Revaluations form, specify a date.
    This is the date that you want used to revalue foreign currency transactions and foreign-denominated account balances. Vantagepoint selects the currency exchange rates that are in effect on this date and uses those rates to calculate gains and losses.
  3. If a diary is set up for the fiscal period or fiscal year, use Diary to select a diary code for the current transaction or the group of transactions.
  4. Click Schedule.
  5. In response to the confirmation message, click Yes to continue.
  6. On the Schedule dialog box, select a processing queue, enter a description, and specify the date and time that you want the Gains/Losses and Revaluations process to run.
  7. Click OK.
Use the Gains/Losses and Revaluations Detail report to review and audit the gains and losses resulting from the Gains/Losses and Revaluations process.
