Normally translation date of SAP document, posting with foreign currency is taken as posting date. So if you want the translation date should be the same to document date.

Go to GGB1 transaction for substitution creation

The next step is create step for substitution: now a popup comes up and you have to select translation date.

If BKPF-WWERT is not in the list you have to change the corresponding entry in table GB01 (BEXCLUDE has to be empty). When you select translation date, you choose field-to-field substitution and you enter BKPF-BLDAT (document date) as source field.

Save then! After that you have to activate in OBBH transaction as well.
