• Journal Entry Vouchers are posted using the default exchange rate instead of the maintained custom exchange rate type.
• When creating a journal entry voucher, the system defaults to an incorrect exchange rate of AA CNY instead of the correct of BB CNY.
• Note: AA CNY and BB CNY represent the amount values along with the currency.
