IV69796: FOREIGN CURRENCY RECEIPT IS RETURNED THE CURRENCY LINE COST OF THE RECEIPT AND RETURN DOESN'T MATCH

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a foreign currency receipt is returned the currency line
  cost of the receipt and return doesn't match.
  The exchange rate indicated on both the receipt and the return
  is the same so, it would be expected that the currency line cost
  would match after it was calculated using the same exchange
  rate.
  
  Steps to recreate:
  1. Create a PO with US vendor.
  2. Add Material line.
  3. Changes status to APPR.
  4. Receive the line - Note the exchange rate and line cost in
  USD:
  5. Wait until the next day when a different Exchange rate is
  entered.
  6. Return the line - Note the difference with the USD line total
  using the same exchange rate:
  Note the exchange rate indicated on the return transaction. It
  is same as on the receipt but the currency unit cost and
  currency line cost on the return doesn't match receipt.
  If the return is actually using the same exchange rate
  to convert the actual line cost (in CAD) to
  the currency line cost, the return currency line cost should
  match the receipt's currency line cost but it doesn't.
  It appears that the return is actually using the exchange rate
  from the today(which is differeent than the exchange rate at the
  time of receipt)  to calcuate the currency line cost.
