Batching a Currency Transfer

Batching a Currency Transfer

The Batch Currency Transfer feature allows you to review and edit a Currency Transfer before it is posted, or to delete a Currency Transfer without posting it.

Security Profile

In Security Profiles, you can give permissions for your users to batch Currency Transfer Transactions. This means that you can force all Currency Transfers to Batch in order that they can be reviewed and posted by a user with more advanced permissions.

In order to give these permissions, the following options have been added to Cash Book Currency Transfers:

  • Go To Batch - Default is enabled.

  • Batch Transaction - Default is enabled, with 'Default' checkbox unticked.

Financials > [Cash Book] Cash Book > Currency Transfers

Here, you can select to Batch a Currency Transfer and enter a Batch Reference so that you can review, and amend, the transaction before posting it

  1. From the toolbar, select Options; the Options dialog opens. Tick the Batch Transaction option to make the Batch Ref. field visible. This ensures that the transaction will not be posted but instead will be saved to the Nominal Ledger batch.

  2. Enter details as required, including the Batch Ref.

  3. From the toolbar, select Post Batch in order to open the batch directly from the transaction. If you open the batch with no transaction header or detail values entered then the Nominal Batch windows open; otherwise, before opening the Nominal Batch windows, you must confirm that any information entered will be lost.

  4. You are able to Freeze a Currency Transfer transaction, as with other Nominal transactions, in order to protect the transaction, in case you need to temporarily do something else. From the toolbar, select the Freeze function.

Nominal Ledger Batch

Financials > [Transactions] Post Batch > Journals

Here you are able to display batched Currency Transfer transactions so that you can review, and amend, these transactions before posting.

Currency Transfer transactions are shown as 'Transfers' Type. Currency Value is displayed in Home currency.
