Resolution of this is critical...I have seen many posts from users who have the same problem.

I have a similar problem...Generally auditors tend to make sure that the sum of GL account transactions for a specific GL account equals to the balance in the TB for that specific account. This is not the case when one has foreign currency denominated accounts. Trying to explain this to the auditors has not been easy.
I would like to suggest that the opening translated balance recorded in the GL should agree to the prior year end closing translated balance...
Currently the opening balance does not agree to prior year end closing balance.
Please refer to my query case: CX0014283285, and the related attachments thereto, where I had raised this issue to be able to understand how the Bank Revaluation Adjustment is arrived at. My answer basically pointed to the fact that the opening balance is not aligned to prior year closing balance and one would need to include a recon of the opening balance to prove the amount adjusted the Bank Revaluation for the current year.

Currently, when forex gain/loss is relevant to an invoice this is always posted to the tracking category relevant to the invoice. For example, when we post a USD invoice to the Art department, this forex gain/loss is recognised in the Art department tracking category too.

This becomes a bit of a mess when we are trying to look at the department budgets and we want to be able to remove the forex gain/loss from the departments and put it into a corporate pot. Please allow the tracking categories to be changed to a default for forex gain/loss!
