3256816 - Define Currency Translation Method - Blank FS Item

When setting up a currency translation method, would like for the CT difference to be posted on the original FS item with subitem 980, subitem category 1.

When trying to leave the Debit and Credit Item roles empty, the system provides the error: 'Specify items or additional acct assignments for differential'.

Therefore, cannot save an adjustment to the method without always having the CT difference being posted to the CTA account.
