I GET THE FOLLOWING ERROR "CAN NOT GET REPORTING RATE"
This error message can occur after you have closed the final period of the year on one of the ledgers, and is caused when the system is unable to locate an exchange rate for the base currency and the reporting currency. This is the case even if you do not use foreign currencies on your system. To resolve the problem make a note of the values of the following system keys:
BASECURR      System base currency (except General Ledger)
NLBASECURR  System base currency in General Ledger.
NLFORCURR    System reporting currency.
Then within the General Supporting Files - Tasks & Currency Rate option - set up the exchange rate between the base rate currencies and the reporting rate currencies.
For example if BASECURR, NLBASE CURR, and NLFORCURR ate all set to GBP, you will need to set the exchange rate between GBP and GBP with a value of 1, for the Financial New Year.
