Symptoms

The Journal Edit is populating the Foreign Amount on the Suspense line, even if the Balancing in the Journal is done by base currency and there is only 1 foreign currency present in the journal.

If there are multiple foreign currencies in the journal, there are correctly balanced amounts in Monetary and Foreign columns of the Suspense line.


The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1.Open the General Ledger Definition for unit US001 and apply the following setup :
Currency balancing options : Balance by base currency only
Base currency adjust option: allow base curr adjustments

2.Journal Balance Option Suspend
Balance suspense chartfields : group DEFAULT and account : 899997

3.Create a journal for US001 and foreign currency EUR and with different amounts on foreign amounts and different currencies for each account.

4.Journal edit has created a balance line with the Foreign Amount that has been populated with YYY EUR, which is wrong as the balancing by base currency
