FX_OVERRIDE_RATE(%ovr_rate_acc%,

%ovr_acc%,

%fx_diff_acc%,

%CURR%)

This formula is similar to FX_OVERRIDE, but the first parameter is the name of an account where the translation rate is entered in place of the translated amount. See FX_OVERRIDE.

Parameters:

% ovr_rate_acc% The account from which to read the overriding rate

%to_ovr_acc% The account to override

%fx_diff_acc% The account used to post the difference from default

%CURR% The reporting currency of the overriding rate

General remarks:

  • This formula does not require a lookup.

  • It can be invoked multiple times before a commit.

  • It MUST be executed AFTER the default translation.

  • The section MUST NOT contain any clear_destination instruction.

To use this formula, enter one or more lines in the logic that call this formula with the appropriate parameter values, as in the following example:

*COMMIT
