Cause

The cross-check values are based entirely upon what is provided by the user to the system via the template, and no currency conversion will be done separate to this.

Resolution

System takes the same values entered in the template, no conversion is done at this stage, and no conversion will be done on posting into the system itself. The same values here will appear on the Journal Entries. So, this is the system expected behavior.
