Mark-To-Market Scheduled Transactions
Mark-To-Market scheduled transactions are created by the Mark-To-Market object and record the gains or losses incurred due to foreign currency orders (orders that are not in the applicable organization's functional currency) and the fluctuation in exchange rates. The Mark-To-Market object uses the Currency Spot Rates service to determine the spot rate for the specific foreign currency order and creates a record associated with that order to track the spot rate.
When payment is received for an order that has shipped or the Mark-To-Market wizard is run manually against shipped orders that have not yet been paid, the Mark-To-Market object compares the last date spot rate on the order with the most current and related currency spot rate from the Currency Spot Rates service. If there is a change, the new spot rate is saved with the order and a scheduled transaction reflecting the exchange rate gain or loss is created. The GL entries typically include a debit or credit to Accounts Receivable and a corresponding debit or credit to the Foreign Exchange Gain or Loss account.
See "Using the Mark-To-Market Process" on page 255 for Wizard for more information.
