<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Structure relations setup? [/INST] Structure relations setup Structure relations setup is optional for non-system generated relations. Use them to create relations between elements of the finance enterprise group finance structure and to define validation rules for each relation. Automatically-created relationships These relations are automatically created depending on the finance structure: If accounting units are used, then an accounting entity to accounting unit relation is created. The valid pairs are automatically created as you create the accounting unit structure for an accounting entity. One valid pair is added for each posting accounting unit that is added to the hierarchy structure. You cannot change these pairs on the Structure Relation page. When creating transaction lines, only accounting units that are valid for the accounting entity are allowed. When you create a reporting basis, a ledger to accounting entity relation is created. The valid pairs are automatically created as you add ledgers and accounting entities to the reporting basis. One valid pair is created for each ledger and accounting entity in the reporting basis. You cannot change these pairs on the Structure Relation page. You can add transactions only for ledger and accounting entities that are connected through a reporting basis. Valid relationships You can create these relations, depending on your finance structure: From ledger to account From ledger to accounting unit, if selected From account to project, if selected From ledger to any user dimension that is selected User-defined relations You can create user-defined relations from any dimension to another if it follows the order of your finance structure. For example, if Account is placed after Finance Dimension 1 in your finance structure, then you cannot create relations from Account to Finance Dimension 1 You can create relations from Finance Dimension 1 to Account if Finance Dimension 1 precedes Account in your finance structure setup. After the relations are created, you must specify all of the valid value pairs for the relations that you created. When setting up finance structure rules for dimensions that are not required, a blank rule must be defined. Relations between two blank rules are not generated by the rules builder and must be manually added on the Detail tab. Transactions are validated against the valid value pairs that are specified for the relation. For example, you create a structure relation between accounting entity and dimension Location. You do not specify a valid relation between accounting entity 1000 and Location USA Any transaction for entity 1000 and location USA is rejected. Methods to create valid pairs This list shows the methods that you can use to create valid value pairs: You can create individual detail pairs. You can create rules that generate valid value pairs based on summary values in the hierarchy. You can create rules that generate valid value pairs based on user-created group values. .</s>

<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Dimension zones? [/INST] Dimension zones A dimension zone is a group of enterprise dimensions that stay in balance when transactions are created in more than one dimension zone. Only your dimension 1 can be flagged for zone balancing. Note: To enable this functionality, select Dimension1 Zone Balancing for the finance enterprise group. Dimension1 refers to the label that you assigned to Dimension 1 on the finance enterprise group. Dimension zones behave in the same manner as accounting unit zones, but they apply to the entire finance enterprise group. For example, you create a dimension named Location , with locations that are defined for USA, Asia, and Europe. You can define each of these locations as a zone. The zone will be balanced across all of the accounting entities that are part of your finance enterprise group. You can define a zone at any level of your dimension hierarchy. For example, a zone that is defined for the Europe location includes Europe and all of the child summary and posting locations under Europe. You can define a zone for a summary dimension or for a posting dimension. For each zone that you define, you must specify the dimension where the automated zone balancing journal entries are posted. If the zone is for a summary dimension, then you must specify a lower-level posting dimension. If the zone is for a posting dimension, then you must specify the same posting dimension to post the balancing entries. If you use dimension 1 zone balancing, then you must designate one zone as the default zone for the dimension.

<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Impact of zone balancing on fund accounting? [/INST] Impact of zone balancing on fund accounting Fund accounting is enabled in the finance enterprise group. See Enabling and disabling fund accounting. Unbalanced entries can occur when fund accounting is enabled. These examples illustrate how unbalanced entries occur and how to balance them. Public Sector fund accounting requires all transactions to be in balance by fund. In certain cases, there may be transactions that will not be balanced by fund. Example 1 Fund Account Cash GENERAL 1010 Received Not Applied ENTERPRISE 2310 In this Receivables setup, the fund for the Cash account is different than the fund for the Received Not Applied account. A receivable cash payment is created for $25.00 and accounted. These entries will be created in Global Ledger : Account description Fund Account Amount Cash GENERAL 1010 $25.00 Received Not Applied ENTERPRISE 2310 -$25.00 The entry is unbalanced because the debit and credit are to different funds. The entries are not kept in balance by the fund accounting feature. To create balanced entries, we recommend specifying Cash and Received Not Applied accounts using the same fund. Example 2 Fund Account Cash GENERAL 1010 Prepay Accrual ENTERPRISE 1410 In this Payables setup, the fund for the Cash account is different than the fund for the Prepay Accrual account. A payable prepay cash invoice is created for $50.00, paid, and accounted. These entries will be created in Global Ledger : Account description Fund Account Amount Cash GENERAL 1010 $50.00 Prepay Accrual ENTERPRISE 1410 -$50.00 The entry is unbalanced because the debit and credit are to different funds. The entries are not kept in balance by the fund accounting feature. To create balanced entries, we recommend specifying Cash and Prepay Accrual accounts using the same fund. Fund (Dimension 1) zone balancing If the setup with different funds is required, you can create balanced entries in Global Ledger by using Fund (Dimension 1) zone balancing. For example, fund zone balancing is enabled for the finance enterprise group and these are the posting funds: ZONEBAL is the default zone fund GENERAL and ENTERPRISE are separate zone funds The zone Payables and Receivables account is 7040. Fund Account Cash GENERAL 1010 Received Not Applied ENTERPRISE 2310 In this Receivables setup, the fund for the Cash account is different than the fund for the Received Not Applied account. A receivable cash payment is created for $25.00 and accounted. Because zone balancing is enabled, these entries will be created in Global Ledger : Account description Fund Account Amount Cash GENERAL 1010 $25.00 Received Not Applied ENTERPRISE 2310 -$25.00 Balancing entry ENTERPRISE 7040 $25.00 Balancing entry GENERAL 7040 -$25.00 Balancing entry ZONEBAL 7040 $25.00 Balancing entry ZONEBAL 7040 -$25.00 The entries are now balanced by fund. .</s>

[/INST] Multi-currency setup requirements If your organization conducts business in more than one currency, then you must complete additional setup tasks. This table shows the required and optional setup for multi-currency companies: Setup Description Currency codes In addition to the one currency code, you must define a currency code for each currency in which you do business. Currency rate table A currency rate table is a user-defined table of currency relationships and exchange rates. A currency rate table can be used by the accounting entities in a finance enterprise group. A currency rate table is associated with an enterprise group. You can create multiple currency rate tables for the same enterprise group. Currency relationships A currency relationship is required for any business transactions that involve two currencies. For example, if your functional currency is US dollars, but you have a vendor that bills you in Japanese yen. Currency gain and loss accounts Currency gain and loss accounts are used to post variance amounts when the currency rates fluctuate. These accounts are required if you process revaluations or translations. Currency daily and period rates Define the daily and period rates that are used to convert amounts from one currency to another. There are two ways to define rates: manually or through an interface. You must define rates if you will be revaluing or translating currency amounts. .</s>
<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Uses of currency codes? [/INST] Uses of currency codes Use currency codes to identify the currencies that are used by your organization. This table shows the uses of currency codes and the description of each: Currency Description Functional Functional currency is the operating currency that is assigned to a Global Ledger accounting entity. The functional currency is not required to be the same as the local currency. Account Account currency is assigned to a global ledger posting account to restrict the use of the account to a single currency. For example, an organization maintains a bank account in France. It can assign EUR to the posting account so only transactions in EUR can be posted. Transaction Transaction currency is the currency in which a business transaction is conducted, for example a purchase, sale, lease, asset purchase, or depreciation. Alternate Alternate currency is an additional currency that is assigned to an accounting entity. The alternate currencies are calculated the same as the functional currency. You can define up to three alternate currencies. Alternate currencies can be revalued and translated. Enterprise Enterprise currency is a currency used for reporting by all the accounting entities that are associated with the finance enterprise group. You can define up to five enterprise currencies. Enterprise currencies can be revalued and translated. .</s>
<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Currency revaluation? [/INST] Currency revaluation Currency revaluation is the process of checking summarized transaction currency amounts against current daily rates or period rates. If the rates have changed, then amounts are adjusted to match the new daily rates or period rates. Offsetting amounts are sent to the unrealized gain or unrealized loss account. Revaluation occurs only for accounts that are selected to revalue. Currency revaluation occurs in Global Ledger by reporting basis for the posting accounts that you select for revaluation. Transaction amounts can be revalued for functional, alternate currencies, and enterprise currencies. The daily rates or period rates that are in effect at the time of the revaluation are used. Currency revaluation is available in Payables and Receivables for vendors and customers that you select for revaluation. .</s>
<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Currency translation? [/INST] Currency translation Currency translation is the process of converting functional amount balances to alternate and enterprise currencies so consolidated financial statements can be produced. Currency translation occurs in Global Ledger by reporting basis typically at the end of the period. Functional amounts can be translated for alternate currencies, project currencies and enterprise currencies, using the period rates. Amounts are adjusted to match the new period rates and offsetting amounts are sent to the translation gain or translation loss account. .</s>
<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Unrealized and realized gain and loss accounts? [/INST] Unrealized and realized gain and loss accounts Realized gain and loss accounts are used to post the difference that results from a change between daily rates. The rate that is in effect at the time a transaction is created is compared with the rate that is in effect at the time the transaction is closed. For example, you create an invoice with a daily rate and the rate changes before you pay the invoice. The differences are posted to a realized gain or loss account. Unrealized gains and losses occur if a transaction that was entered during the period is still outstanding at the end of the period. Unrealized gain and loss accounts are used to temporarily account for any changes in the currency exchange rate. The transaction date is compared to the period ending date. Note: Entries are not generated by Global Ledger to the realized gain or loss accounts. Only Payables and Receivables use these accounts. Global Ledger will post the values that are sent from Payables and Receivables. .</s>

<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Currency triangulation? [/INST] Currency triangulation Currency triangulation is the process of converting one currency to another by way of a third currency. This scenario is a setup option to reduce the number of direct relationships. How is triangulation used? For any business that uses multiple transaction currencies, there may be a maintenance advantage to using triangulation. For example, maintaining the exchange rates between 10 currencies will involve 90 rates. If the business model supports triangulation through a chosen intermediate currency, then only 20 rates must be maintained. Currency relationships must exist between all possible currency combinations, regardless of the use of triangulation. Triangulation within the Currency solution is defined at the currency relationship level. Thereafter, any reference to that relationship will cause the triangulation method of conversion to be invoked. This can occur during conversions between transaction currency and functional currency, alternate currencies, or enterprise currencies. Triangulation setup requirements To use triangulation, you must set up three relationships: From the source currency to the target currency, triangulated by using the intermediate currency with no daily rate. From the source currency to the intermediary currency with a set daily rate, and, if applicable, a set period rate. From the intermediary currency to the target currency with a set daily rate and, if applicable, a set period rate. .</s>
<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Currency relationships? [/INST] Currency relationships Currency relationships are used to identify the conversion rules between two currency codes for daily, period, or both. For each currency relationship, you can define the associated rates for currency revaluation and, if applicable, for currency translation. Currency relationship considerations A currency relationship is associated with a finance enterprise group. Multiple solutions can share the finance enterprise group and each solution can have currency relationships defined. Currency daily rates are defined for a specific currency table that is assigned to your finance enterprise group. Therefore, all of the accounting entities that are associated with the finance enterprise group will draw their daily rates from the same table. Other solutions that are interfaced to the same finance enterprise group share the same currency table and rates. Period rates use the same relationships but are applicable only to the accounting entities that are defined for the finance enterprise group. A currency relationship is uni-directional. If you define a relationship from the Canadian dollar to the US dollar, you can convert from the Canadian dollar to the US dollar. You can not convert from the US dollar to the Canadian dollar. When you create a relationship, you have the option to automatically generate the reverse relationship. You must define a currency relationship between each currency code that you convert amounts from and to. From each accounting entity's functional currency to its alternate currencies, if translating from functional to alternate currency. From each accounting entity's functional currency to each enterprise and project currency that is defined for the finance enterprise group, if translating. From each transaction currency to the applicable accounting entity's functional, alternate, project, and enterprise currencies that are defined for the finance enterprise group. You can add currency relationships and currency rates at any time before you create a transaction that will use the relationship. .</s>

<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Currency daily rates? [/INST] Currency daily rates Currency daily rates are the rates that are used to exchange transaction amounts to an accounting entity's functional currency, alternate currencies, and enterprise currencies. Currency daily rates are defined for a currency rate table and for currency relationships. You can define a maximum of one daily rate per day for each currency relationship. You can also interface daily rates from a CSV file. All daily rates assume a multiply operator between the From and To currencies. For currency relationships that are defined with the Auto Generate Reverse Relationship option, the reverse multiply rate for the reverse currency relationship is automatically computed. For example, a daily rate of 1.25 is created between currencies A and B. The currency relationship between currencies B and A was created as a result of auto-reversing. The daily rate between currency B and currency A is computed as 1/1.25 (or 0.8). Currency daily rates establish the rate that is in effect at the time that the transaction is created. They are used immediately when a transaction is created in or interfaced to Global Ledger to exchange the transaction amount to the functional currency. If alternate currencies and enterprise currencies are defined, then the daily rates are used to convert transaction amounts. The amounts are converted to the alternate currency and enterprise currency amounts. The currency daily rates can be used periodically to revalue the exchanged amounts. They should be used at least once per fiscal period. They can be used to assess any gain or loss that is incurred at the time of the revaluation. The gain or loss is a result of daily rate fluctuations. You must specify which accounts are subject to revaluation. See the Infor Data Interface Guide for information about interfacing daily rates. .</s>

<s>[INST] In the context of INFOR Docs, tell me about Currency period rates? [/INST] Currency period rates You must define a currency relationship between two currencies before you can define period rates for them. You define a period rate for a translation code. You can create period rates individually or you can interface period rates in batches. Currency period rates are used by Global Ledger. They are used to convert functional amounts for the accounting entities within a reporting basis. The amounts are converted to the alternate currencies or enterprise currencies that are defined for the finance enterprise group. Financial reports can then be generated in any of these currencies. The rates are specific to the finance enterprise group. A period rate is associated with a translation code. They can be system-defined or user-defined. A translation code is associated with a system-defined translation type, which indicates how the period rates are computed and used. Period rates are defined for a period. You can specify one period rate per translation code and per period for each currency relationship that you define. Enterprise currency translation is generally performed at the end of the period. All translation is performed in Global Ledger on period balances, and amounts are accumulated from period to period. For each run, Global Ledger creates an offsetting gain or loss to a translation gain or loss account that is defined on the finance enterprise group. Currency translation is only used in Global Ledger. The currency period rates can be used instead of the daily rates when you revalue transaction currency amounts. See the Infor Data Interface Guide for information about interfacing period rates. .</s>
