FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQ01. Should the ERP system revalue journals posted by CS Lucas?

ERP system must NOT revalue any General Ledger chart of accounts items (except “Cash at bank”) used for treasury transactions that CS Lucas system is posting to. If these journals are revalued or changed and booked (either manually or via integration), we will not be able to provide support to reconcile General Ledger balances (base and currency amount) to the CS Lucas system.

The reason revaluation is not necessary are as follows:

a) CS Lucas will book transactions using the appropriate accounting rate so that the base currency amount are correctly stated. Where necessary, CS Lucas will recompute the appropriate average period exchange rate from the archived end of day rate.

b) At month end, the CS Lucas system generates month end journals for the following purposes:

i) accruals for interest income and expenses
ii) amortization/accretion journals
iiii) revaluation journals to compute the FX gains and losses.
iv) revaluation if monetary assets and liability.

c) Unless otherwise stated, all month end journals above are reversing in nature posted on the following day of the month end.

d) Settlement journals for transactions booked in the CS Lucas assume these above month end journals and their reversal. These settlement journals computes the correct FX realized amount and analyze it between capital and revenue as appropriate.

e) The “Cash at bank” accounts are not revalued by CS Lucas. Therefore, the Cash at Bank account needs to be restated for month end revaluation in the usual manner by the ERP system.
