The Cash Entry program allows payments to be received in currencies other than in the customer’s normal trading currency as specified in the Customer masterfile. The receipt amount has to be entered in the foreign currency as well as in the customer’s normal trading currency. At the end of the month the system will reverse all the unrealized gains or losses processed prior to this payment and post the actuals to the realized exchange fluctuation journal type.
