Authorizations

An authorization can be granted for this function to limit the processes to a company or a site.

Miscellaneous prerequisites

The following automatic journals must be set up:

  • MTR: this entry is used to generate a MO in the event of a matching being unbalanced in ledger currency, although it is balanced in company currency. The generated entries are automatically deleted in case of unmatching. The entries generated by the MTR automatic journal are preceded with a star (*).
  • MTC: this automatic journal is released upon matching, when the rate has changed between the invoice and the payment. The amount in transaction currency is balanced and the generation of a gap journal makes it possible to rebalance the amount in company currency that has been subjected to a rate variation.
