Multi-currency accounting with FX revaluation and CTA posting.

Entity-level functional currencies. Daily ECB rate feeds. Period-end revaluation of monetary items. CTA posts on translation. Realized FX gains and losses settle automatically.

Functional currency

01

Each entity carries its own functional currency.

Set a functional currency per entity. Transactions are recorded in their original currency, translated to the entity's functional currency at the transaction-date rate, and then translated to the parent reporting currency at the period-end rate on consolidation.

  • Per-entity functional currency.
  • Transaction-date rates for income statement items.
  • Period-end rates for balance-sheet items per ASC 830.
  • Historical rates preserved for equity components.

Rates

02

Daily rates from a public source feed.

Quoining pulls daily exchange rates from the Frankfurter ECB feed and stores the rate per currency pair per date. You can override a rate for a specific transaction or for a specific period-end revaluation run.

  • Daily ECB rates fetched automatically.
  • Per-transaction rate overrides.
  • Rate audit trail (every rate used on a posting is preserved.

Revaluation

03

Period-end FX revaluation of monetary balances.

At period close, Quoining revalues monetary asset and liability balances at the period-end rate, posts the unrealized gain or loss, and auto-reverses the revaluation entry on day one of the next period. Realized gains and losses post when the underlying transaction settles.

  • Period-end revaluation of cash, AR, AP, and other monetary items.
  • Unrealized FX gain/loss posts to the configured GL account.
  • Auto-reversal on day one of the next period.
  • Realized FX gain/loss on settlement of foreign-currency transactions.

CTA

04

Translation adjustment on consolidation.

When entities with different functional currencies roll up to the consolidated reporting currency, the cumulative translation adjustment posts to other comprehensive income. The CTA balance is preserved across periods and reported in the statement of changes in equity.

Questions

About multi-currency & fx.

Where do exchange rates come from?

Daily rates are fetched from the Frankfurter ECB feed. You can override a rate per transaction or per revaluation run, and every rate used on a posting is preserved in the audit trail.

Does period-end revaluation auto-reverse?

Yes. The revaluation entry posts on the last day of the period and auto-reverses on day one of the next period, so the balances revert before being re-revalued at the next period end.

Which items are revalued at period end?

Monetary asset and liability balances: cash, AR, AP, and other monetary items per ASC 830. Non-monetary items keep their historical rate.
