Linked Actualities

The purpose of linked actualities is to have the possibility to use entered LC values in different ways, without having to re-enter them. The only preparation required is to define the actuality.

When you, for example, currency convert the target actuality, the LC values (reported values and company journals) are retrieved from the source actuality, but are currency converted with the entered currency rates for the target actuality. As reported values and company journals in local currency are retrieved from the source actuality, you cannot enter new company journals in the local currency for the target actuality. For the target actuality, you can only enter company journals in group currency, or as group journals. Acquisition calculations are created for the target actuality. Nothing is retrieved from the source actuality.

Be aware that you must enter the alternative currency rate in the currency register and then run the currency translation.
