Creating Currency Revaluation Templates

When you create a Currency Revaluation (CRV) Template, you create the template details first and then assign companies and general ledger accounts separately.

Note:
This functionality is only available in Lightning and must be enabled using Feature Console.

Warning:
If you have upgraded from a previous version of Accounting and have existing currency revaluation templates, you must update the new fields that have been added.

Creating CRV Template Details

For more information, see Currency Revaluation Template Fields.

Note:
The processes that run when you generate revaluation documents are determined by the template type. FinancialForce recommends that if the template type is "Currency Translation Only", you only include. companies where the Document and Home currency values are the same. If a company has documents that are not in the Home currency, we recommend that you select a template that has "Currency Revaluation and Translation" as the template type to run Revaluation and Translation together.
