If there is a difference between the recorded amount converted to the organization's base currency and the actual cash spent amount converted to the organization's base currency, realized gain-loss will take place. This is further explained in When does realized FX gain-loss (RGL) happen, and how is it calculated?
If the cash spent currency does not match the recorded refund currency, there is a possibility of a realized gain/loss due to the fluctuations in the exchange rates.
Juan fetches a custom rate if available on the date of the payment. If not, the rate is fetched from 3rd party services.
You can also adjust the payment rate if the one fetched by Juan is not the rate you want to use for the payment.
RGL happens when the following conditions are fulfilled:
There is a difference between the customer refund amount converted to the organization's base currency, and the cash spent converted to the organization's base currency.
The following customer refund/cash spent currency combinations take place:
RGL is calculated this way for customer refunds:
Realized FX (Gain)/Loss = (Cash spent / Payment rate) - (Customer refund amount / Transaction rate)
Where:
Cash spent: The amount spent (paid out) for the recorded customer refund
The customer refund amount will be equal to the cash spent amount, if the customer credit note and refund account are in the same currency.
Payment rate: The exchange rate for the refund payment (cash spent) (1.00 if the refund payment is in the organization's base currency)
Customer refund amount: The amount recorded as refunded for a customer credit note
This amount amount may be the entire customer credit note's amount, or a part of it (partial refund).
Transaction rate: The exchange rate on the customer credit note (1.00 if the customer credit note is in the base currency)
FX gains are recorded as negative expenses, while losses are recorded as positive expenses to the FX Realized (Gains)/Loss account.
ā
In other words,
FX gains are recorded if the customer refund amount in base currency is greater than the cash spent in base currency at the exchange rate on payment date.
FX losses are recorded if the customer refund amount in base currency is less than the cash spent in base currency at the exchange rate on payment date.

However, you will not be able to select the deleted tax profile moving forward when creating new customer credit notes, which may have effects on pre and post-tax calculations.
Making an account inactive will not have an impact on any refunds that have already been made and recorded.
However, you will not be able to select the inactive account as a refund account (in the case of cash and bank accounts) moving forward, until the account is active again.
