A Bank Revaluation Journal is an accounting entry used to adjust the base currency (EUR) balance of a multi-currency (MC) bank account without impacting the foreign currency (FC) amount. This is typically done to reflect exchange rate movements or correct discrepancies.
You can post a Bank Revaluation Journal by setting the exchange rate to 0, which allows you to manually update the EUR balance without triggering a recalculation based on FC. This is useful when the FC amount is correct, but the EUR balance needs adjustment due to rounding differences or FX revaluation corrections.
The foreign currency (FC) balance remains unchanged. Only the EUR (base currency) value is updated.
Ensure the FC amount is accurate and should not be changed.

Double-check the exchange rate is 0 to avoid automatic conversion.
