When the Purchase Orders are created in Link and posted to JIWA:

1. The Foreign Currency Transaction figure and the Foreign Currency Rate is not displayed correctly.
2. The GST description gets populated as “VAT” for exempt purchase orders.

The environment is setup in QA4, DB’s: LUNCHBOX_LABASA_JIWA & LUNCHBOX_LABASA_LINKSOFT

Refer to steps below:

1. Setup “BUY” currency as:
   • Currency From: AUD
   • Currency To: FJD
   • Rate: 2.00
2. Created PO - LTPO000004. [Refer to image 1]
3. Posted this PO with the supplier reference as “Supplier Ref: REC06”.
4. When the Creditor Purchase is created in JIWA, the “Foreign Currency Trans.”, and “Foreign Currency Rate” is updated incorrectly. [Refer to image 1]
5. The GST description gets populated as “VAT” whereas, the PO was created as “Exempt”. [Refer to image 1]
   
   

The reason why this is needed is because;

1. Currency in JIWA is displaying the foreign rate conversion as 1:1. This will result in vast amounts of FX gain/loss situations when payments are processed in JIWA with given valid foreign exchange rates.
2. When VAT is displayed on the creditor purchase screen, it’s disabled. If we may ever need to amend the creditor purchase entries to correct any mismatches between Link and JIWA reported in future, upon editing any transaction amount, VAT is calculated and cannot be changed since the field is disabled.

Hi Aarti,

I am not able to replicate this on the demo.

Can you try this again using a fresh demo database?
