| Revaluation is a peridical process in the accounting processes if the ledger holds up a set of foreign currency accounts. The standard case for such a period is a month but this can be changed.
| | removed - actuell version is [[Foreign Currency Transactions]] |
| | |
| In order to understand the revaluation resp. in order to be able to run a revaluation process, you have to unterstand that you need at least 3 processes to be able to run it.

| === The foreign currency update ===
| |
|
| |
| The first extern process is the update of the currency exchange rates. This process may have the same period as the revaluation process (one month) but in normal cases this process is totally desynchronized. The accounting interval may be an interval in the past and for example the January the 1st 2011 may be the date to define the values which are actual for the following month and the accounting interval may be a month in 2009. So this process is running parallel but on it’s own rules.

|
| |
| The update process can be done more ore less automatically. A set of different techniques are possible.
| |
|
| |
| # It may be possible that one ore more different public information server on the web are good for the job.
| |
| # It may be a good idea for the OM-International to offer an update service for all those national offices
| |
| # It can be done manually by a user.
| |
|
| |
| In the development phase for the revaluation a static test data set will be sufficient. But you can not use the revaluation without at least one running update processes.

| |
| === The Period Reset ===
| |
|
| |
| After all jobs in an accounting period have been done, the accounting period will be closed and the work will be continued using the next period. Such a reset must exist in some rudimentary form.
| |
|
| |
| === The Revaluation ===
| |
|
| |
| There are two reasons for a revaluation.
| |
|
| |
| # A foreigen currency transaction has been accounted and the transaction sheets are out of balance.
| |
| # The foreign currency exchange rates changes and this automaticaly disbalances the accounts.
