Adjust Exchange Rates Batch Job and Dimensions

smatijev

When this batch job is posting exchange rate differences, where from is it pulling dimensions? It looks like it is pulling dimension from G/L Account but only two global dimensions. I consulted NA 3.60 Financial Management.pdf but there isn't anything in there about dimension.
Any info? :-k

Even though it's an old question, some info on this could be useful for users searching the forum (I've been searching for this topic recently):

From the Help:

Dimensions on Customer/Vendor Entries
The adjustment entries are assigned the dimensions from the customer/vendor ledger entries, and the adjustments are posted per combination of dimension values.

(i.e. if your Customer Ledger Entries had the ABC001 dimension assigned, after running the Adjust Exchange Rate procedure your adjustment entries will have the same dimension assigned)

Dimensions on Bank Account Entries
The adjustment entries for the bank account's G/L account and for the gain/loss account are assigned the bank account's default dimensions.

(i.e. let's say, on your Bank Account Card, you have assigned a default dimension ABC002, so the same dimension will assigned to the adjustment entries)

Dimensions on G/L Account Entries
The adjustment entries are assigned the default dimensions from the accounts they are posted to.
