Forex accounts in OBA1

92 Views

Hi,

I noticed there are 2 types of accounts available in the OBA1 forex revaluation GL accounts config screen as follows :-

Exchange rate difference realized

Translation

The documentation says the accounts specified in the translation section will be used to show the translation differences occurred in a period. However we can find the same info by checking the accounts specified in the "Exchange rate difference realized" section, so why do we need the "Translation" section GL accounts?

Secondly when will the GL accounts specified in the translation section be posted? Is it during f.05 revaluation or during open items clearing posting?
