In order for Oracle to more accurately calculate FX on Doubtful AR, a new account has been set up for Allowance For Doubtful AR – USD Transactions. Beginning in January, please record any reserve that relates to USD denominated AR invoices in account 110096. All reserves relating to AR invoices raised in a currency other than USD should still be coded to account 110095.
Please re-class any reserve already recorded in account 110095 for USD denominated invoices to account 110096 in January business.
Account 110096 should be treated the same way as any other USD denominated account, i.e. the balance in local currency should equal the USD balance @ month end rate.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this change please do not hesitate to contact me.
Regards,
