In the General Ledger ( Setup - General - Currencies ), there is a coloum called " Realized Gains Account ", " Realized Losses Account ", " Unrealized Gains Account " and " Unrealized Losses Account "

So ..... is there anyone can telling me when the content of that coloum will be used in the Navision Financial ?
Or .... anyone can give me some figure / illustration for the usage of that feature ?

Thanks a lot for the coorporation

    In a nutshell: These accounts are used to post the differences between the calculated value of an amount in a different currency and the value actually paid (posted) to compensate the fluctuations in exchange rates.

    Tip: Do check if there's "context sensitive" Help available for a field when you are in doubt of its use or meaning. Look at the very right of the toolbar to locate the arrow-with-questionmark button. Click this button and then click in the field of interest. Or press Shift-F1 for the same effect.
