The Cross-Currency Journal Entry Detail screen allows you to enter detail transactions for the journal specified on the previous Header screen.  This screen is used mainly to clear out account balances when the foreign amount has a zero balance and the base amount is non-zero.  This screen contains the account/center to be posted to, the debit or credit amount in both base and foreign currency amount, the exchange rate associated with the transaction, the currency specified for the transaction, reference fields, and displayed information carried over from the header.  The information entered on this screen for the transactions is then displayed on the header screen, and the base amount of credits must equal the base amount of debits for processing to occur.

Transaction amounts may be entered a number of ways.  Any of the following combinations are possible.  The foreign amount may be entered alone or with the exchange rate.  The base amount may be entered alone if the operation flag is 'Y' and the foreign amount is zero.  The base amount and the exchange rate may be entered together.  Finally, the foreign amount and the base amount may be entered together, forcing the exchange rate.
