Let’s explore few of the Key features which can help our customers to improve their daily operations efficiency.

1. Enable dual currency functionality in General ledger consolidation: In General ledger consolidation, a new option is added to consolidate either the accounting or reporting currency amounts from the source companies. If the accounting or reporting currency is the same as the accounting or reporting currency in the consolidation company, it will directly copy the amounts rather than translating them.

Here is the detail explanation of “Dual currency”
