how to close cumulative translation adjustment?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The Cumulative Translation Adjustment (CTA) is the foreign currency impact of translating a balance sheet to the reporting currency. It doesn't settle but keeps accumulating over time due to foreign exchange fluctuations. If you notice that the CTA balance is increasing significantly, it could be due to incorrect elimination or manual entries in the Elimination book. It's recommended to check the following: 1. Matching dates of non-advanced intercompany entries and transactions. Sometimes cash transfers between subsidiaries are recorded on separate entries with different dates (date initiated vs. settled). 2. Ensure the checkbox for Eliminate is available on the form and checked on relevant transactions and entries. If you want to prevent currency revaluation at the end of a period, you can skip running the revalue open foreign currency task from the accounting period checklist for that particular subsidiary. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
