Multicurrency - Frequently asked questions
This document addresses a frequently asked question regarding the absence of profit on exchange after selling a holding in investment management software. It explains that profit on exchange is not calculated if the option "Calculate Inv Profit on Exch" is not selected in client classes. The document outlines steps to enable this feature, warns of potential complications such as the need for data backup and the risk of duplicate cost write-downs if manual adjustments were made previously. It recommends testing the setting in a standalone system before proceeding.
