AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Currency revaluation in NetSuite is a process that adjusts the value of foreign currency balances based on the current exchange rate. This process is typically run at the end of each month to reflect the most accurate value of foreign currency balances in the financial statements. However, if the revaluation process does not reverse in the following month and is replaced with the most recent entry, it could be due to a few reasons: 1. Foreign Currency Transactions: If at any point in time, a foreign currency transaction was created and closed with a non-foreign currency transaction, the foreign currency balance might not go away. This could cause the revaluation to persist. To resolve this, you would need to create a search for all transactions since day one, have it with currency and foreign exchange rate, and use both amount and amount (foreign currency) fields. Once you identify the transaction causing the issue, you would need to reverse the non-foreign currency transaction and book a foreign currency transaction. 2. Data Import: If the open Accounts Receivable (AR) and Accounts Payable (AP) were imported using the original foreign currency amount and original exchange rate, the unrealized foreign exchange (FOREX) gains and losses might not have been reversed on the first day of the following month. In this case, a manual journal entry would be needed to reverse the unrealized FOREX gains and losses on the first day of the following month. 3. Account Balances: For non-AR, non-AP, and non-bank accounts, NetSuite revalues all foreign currency transactions posted into these accounts from day one. If the total debit and total credit balances are being revalued separately at the end of the period, it could cause a balance in the account. Remember, it's crucial to ensure that all foreign currency balances are loaded with the correct exchange rates, or the revaluation will be incorrect. Also, as part of your data migration, you should be posting the full foreign currency revaluation reversal on the first day of the following month, including all balances that are held in foreign currency. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
