Problem Description: 
===================
 
        You are using multiple currencies.
        You have a corporate exchange rate set up in Purchasing.
        You create a PO with this exchange rate.
        
        In Payables, you enter an invoice with a user rate that is
        different from the exchange rate that is on the PO.

        The exchange rate variance is being charged to the PO charge
        account (the expense account on the distribution line on the
        PO).

        You were expecting the exchange rate variance to go to the
        Rate Variance Gain/Loss accounts that you set up by
        navigating in Payables to:

                Setup -> Options -> Financials -> Accounting
                
                GL Accounts:
                        Rate Variance Gain
                        Rate Variance Loss

        multi-currency PO charge account exchange rate variance

Solution Description: 
====================

        If the PO distribution is an expense type, the rate variance
        gets charged to the PO charge account.  

        If the PO distribution is an inventory type of distribution
        (asset account), it gets charged to the exchange rate variance
        gain/loss account setup in system options.  In Payables, the 
        exchange rate variance gain/loss accounts are set up by navigating 
        to:

                Setup -> Options -> Financials -> Accounting
                
        The Rate Variance GL Accounts are called:

        Rate Variance Gain
        Rate Variance Loss
