Q: 12
You perform foreign currency valuation for open items of your supplier accounts. The valuations will
be used only for period end reporting and should then be reversed.
What account does the system use to post the valuation differences?

Seen something close on practice tests. C is what SAP uses for period-end adjustments that need to be reversed.
C had something like this in a mock. SAP does the valuation difference posting in the adjustment G/L account for reversals, not the reconciliation account.
Ugh, SAP always twists the G/L account logic for reversals. C
C fits since period-end reversals usually use the adjustment G/L in SAP, not the supplier reconciliation account. Agree?
This looks like the kind of question I've seen in some practice sets, and C is the usual answer for reversal scenarios.
Option C makes sense here since the question says it's for period-end reporting with reversals. SAP typically uses the adjustment G/L account in that scenario. Still, I've seen some setups use D, so not 100 percent.
C/D? Not completely sure. I usually associate period-end reversals with the adjustment G/L (C), but supplier rec G/L (D) makes some sense if reversal wasn't in play. Would be good to double-check with config screenshots, because SAP sometimes throws curveballs here.
D or C? I went with D because the supplier reconciliation G/L usually captures postings for open items, and sometimes it's easy to miss that SAP has a specific adjustment account for temporary valuations. I'm not 100 percent, maybe missing that reversal bit.
I see why some pick D since supplier reconciliation G/L could be used if the entry didn't need reversing. SAP sometimes flips behavior depending on whether reversal is required, so my pick is D.
C or D, but I'm leaning C since the question talks about reversal at period close. SAP usually posts to the adjustment G/L account when it needs to undo the entry next period. Not totally sure, open to other takes.
