Why the consolidated exchange rate is different between a standard and a customised balance sheet?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The consolidated exchange rate can differ between a standard and a customised balance sheet due to several factors. Firstly, the consolidated exchange rate is determined by the 'General Rate Type' setting on each account. There are three types of consolidated exchange rates: current, average, and historical. Each account is assigned to one of these three general rate types. For example, if you run a consolidated profit and loss report for one month, and you change the average consolidated exchange rate, the report will show something different. If you change the historical consolidated exchange rate, the report will also show something different. However, if you change the current consolidated exchange rate, nothing happens in the report. This is because the 'General Rate Type' setting on the account determines what happens. Secondly, the consolidated exchange rate can also be affected by the timing of transactions. For instance, two transactions posted on the same date and in the same posting period might have slightly different exchange rates. This could be due to the fact that one was created before 12pm and one was created after 12pm. Lastly, the consolidated exchange rate can also be influenced by the 'As of' selector for the balance sheet. Financials will take the Consolidated FX Rates of whatever period you have in the 'As of' selector for the balance sheet. So if your consolidated rate is 1.4 one month and 1.5 another, the same dollar amount unconsolidated is going to show up as two different amounts consolidated. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
