Set up Made2Manage to use the monetary vs. non-monetary currency translation method
Made2Manage comes set up for the current vs. non-current foreign currency translation method. For this method, all general ledger accounts that are current assets or current liabilities revaluate at the current exchange rate at end-of-period. Revaluating means adjusting for anticipated but unrealized gains and losses to create more accurate financial reports.
You can set up Made2Manage to use the monetary vs. non-monetary translation method. If you use the monetary vs. non-monetary method, you must prevent non-monetary accounts from revaluating at end-of-period.
