One-Step Valuation The one-step valuation procedure uses the total amount in local currency as the basis for determining write-ups and write-downs, creating and reversing provisions, and disclosing unrealized gains/losses in a single step.

The procedure for determining write-ups/write-downs is as follows:
The system compares the book value of the position in valuation currency with the book value or NPV and then calculates the new book value according to the rules defined for the position management procedure.
The book value in position currency is determined at the same time.
The gain or loss for the paper is determined by first calculating the write-up or write-down amount in position currency and then translating it into the valuation currency using the book exchange rate. The write-up or write-down amount for the foreign exchange component is the difference between this value and the new book value in valuation currency.
Flows are generated for the write-up or write-down amounts:
One flow for security gains/losses
One flow for foreign exchange gains/losses
The update type depends on the +/- sign of the individual amounts and on the +/- sign of the sum of both write-up or write-down amounts in valuation currency.
This valuation step can generate reset flows.
