note
If
Enter Local, USD and Calc FX
policy is selected and the Local PTBI equals zero:
  • The system attempts to compute the reporting by dividing zero by the Weighted Average FX and returning "unknown," with no amounts displaying in reporting currency. To display amounts in reporting currency, select another PTBI policy and enter the Weighted Average FX.
  • Reports in reporting currency display with the message: "Unit(s) included in the report have an Unknown Weighted Average FX. Amounts in those units will be excluded in reporting currency.
  • When using the last two policies, Effective Tax rates may differ in Local Currency and Reporting Currency because the PTBI is using a different Weighted Average rate than the entered Weighted Average.
  • When using the last policy, the rounding amount is included on a separate line in the Effective Tax Rate report.
  • Regardless of the policy selected, amounts other than the PTBI are converted at the entered Weighted Average or Spot rate.
