Fx_Override -confirm exceptions

[Former Member]

We have recently noticed that FX_Overrides appear to not work or be ignored when the Local Currency type for an entity is the same as the Override currency.

USA has Local Currency = USD

FX_Override(OD_4200,4200,FXDIFF,USD)

We have noticed that the override does not occur for this entity because we use a different datasource for Overrides, than we do loading data.

Can you confirm this is how it is suppose to work?

Roberto, 

It is not just 1 entity but EVERY entity where the local currency is USD. I have looked at the FXLogic.lgx file and I don't know enough about Logic to know it it is spelled out here or not.  Can you look at this logic and tell me which line would cause this action?
