USD Override on Text 1

We have several equity accounts with "USDOverride" entered for Text 1 in the "Vary by Scenario Type And Time" section of the member properties. Those accounts are not translating from local currency to USD.  Any ideas why that would be?

Thanks!

Hey btHarris81,

I suspect that these accounts with Text1=USDOverride are not translating because they are expected to use an inputted USD value (hence USD override). There is most likely another member within another dimension (i.e. either on a scenario or flow member) that looks at the Text1 property on accounts and then populates C#Translated with a USD override amount that is keyed in elsewhere. 

Here is my setup for USD Overrides and copy rule:
