Entering opening balance for a new company

Question

Hi all
I am using AP, GL and CM. After successful testing on test environment the customer now is forwarding in live environment.
He has prepared open balance for all accounts and i should migrate these balances in the system.
This balance sheet prepared from the customer is balanced so debits equals to credits.
The currency of this company is ALL, and in this document there are few accounts that are in EUR and USD, but in total the converted amounts of these accounts(accounts that has balance in foreign currency) together with other accounts in ALL are balanced.
Now i have to enter in the GL module three different journals, one in ALL, one in EUR and the last one in USD, with the exchange rates given by the customer.
The question is here. These three journals are not balanced, and i wanted a suggestion which is the best way to enter the open balance for this customer.
Thank you and best regards

Answer 1

Hi Octavio
So the document sent from the customer is like this:
Acc. No------------Debit ALL-----Credit ALL----------Debit EUR-------Credit EUR----------------Debit USD----------Credit USD
Acc. 1--------------100
Acc. 2--------------150-------------------------------------100
Acc. 3--------------150-------------------------------------100
Acc. 4--------------200-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------200
Acc. 5--------------200-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------200
Acc. 6---------------------------------800
Now accounts in foreign currency should have their balances in foreign currency and the converted amount is giving the balance in local currency.
so i have to register three journals or am i wrong?? As you can see the journals in each currency are not balanced.
Thanks again
