2374210 - Exchg. Rate Diff at clearing versus asterisk

After selecting items to be cleared, there is some "non-assigned difference". To charge off such a difference, some other account is used, with some "amount" in order to balance the posting to zero. This amount can be entered in two ways:

a) manually (explict entry),

b) or using asterisk (*) symbol.

The final posting is different, depending on if entering the amount manually (Exchange Rate Differences posted), or if entering an asterisk (No ERD).
