Description Ihor Hayduk 2006-05-28 14:09:50 UTC
Hi Guys, 

I will explain the situation. 

1. Create a vendor V1 with payments in EUR.
2. Create an expences account with EUR currency.
3. Create and Post Bill from this Vendor for 100 EUR to 'Accounts Payable' that is in USD.
4. Enter EUR to USD exchange rate - 1:1.28.

At this point I have at 'Accounts Payable' 128 USD to pay.

when I push to 'Process Payment' in order to pay the Bill, 
I put all amount 128 USD and as 'Transfer Account' I choose 'Checking Account' which is in USD. But no -128USD appears in 'Checking Account'.

If I will create 'Checking Account in EUR' and will choose 'Checking Account in EUR' in 'Process Payment' window, it will appear in this account,  but as -128 EUR.

I think there is something wrong here.


WBR, Igor.

The business features are all single currency.  This means that all income, expense, A/R, A/P, and "bank" accounts referenced by your business MUST be the same currency.

There is no plan to change this prior to 2.0.

Feel free to submit a patch.

It seems this has been long fixed? You can now create invoices in one currency, and have them payed to a bank account in a different currency. I guess this report can be closed?

This has indeed been implemented for some time now.
I recently fixed one nasty bug (bug 746792) in this area so it should now be fully functional.

Thanks Matthijs for helping us with triaging the old bugs.
