NetSuite Professionals

To clarify, our GL accountant just told me the numbers that changed when closing the period were "financial general ledger transaction amounts at the consolidated level"

Yes, we're using OneWorld and have multiple subs all of which use multiple currencies but which roll up to the sub currency

You should probably start by reading the docs. <https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/section_N1452509.html> Calculating the consolidated exchange rates is obviously going to affect you, for a start

Yeah, that was my first guess. The month they closed was February, and they closed it in July so I thought maybe it used the current exchange rate instead of the February rate when it would have been closed if we were fully implemented back then.

This explains that part: <https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/section_N1404834.html>

You'll want this too: <https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/section_1550016096.html> NS creates currency reval transactions as part of the month end process

This aside, your accountants need some training ASAP

Yeah, our implementation partner really dropped the ball in the training / guidance department among other things. We're trying to figure it out as we go.

We've got a great accounting team but they don't know what they need to be trained in to do their work in NetSuite. Any recommendations for accounting training?

I've passed on the documentation links to our accounting team. Thank you for those! :slightly_smiling_face:

Yeah, it's not their fault. That's not what I was getting at :slightly_smiling_face:  The implementation partner should know better

<@U8LG4JDPY> did you manage to get this resolved ok?

<@U8LG4JDPY> if your team has access to the NetSuite learning portal, there is a good training session geared towards finance/accounting teams.

Alternately, this is a quick list of user guides that I find easy than using search:  <https://community.oracle.com/netsuite/kb/articles/2-netsuite-user-guides>.  You must have a NS login to access the documents behind the links.
