BPC 7.5 Currency Translation (FX Translation) incorrect

Hi experts,

 

I am having an issue with FX translation in BPC 7.5 Microsoft.

 

The translation runs without error, but the result looks incorrect to me.  I am translating LC to ZAR (South African Rand).  To prove the result is incorrect, I created Rates = 1 for ZAR and Rates = 1 for USD.  The LC value is translated to ZAR, but the result only 50% of LC?  According to me, with rates ZAR = 1,  ZAR should be exactly the same as LC.  For some reason the calculation is incorrect and I have tried with different rates.

 

Please see the attached document for all the relevant information I have (Rates, Dimension Properties, etc.)

Any help would be appreciated, I have been struggling with this for a while!
