Tried that and tried last before date.  Both had same results.  Only PHP rates are in the price database and the entry for 7/5/23 is correct.

A guess on my part.

In the Balance sheet:
  Click on Options
     Click on Commodities
        Click on Price Source
          Try Closet to Report Date

You might also check if the conversion rate between PHP and USD was recorded:
Tools
   Price Database
      Currencies
        Look in both USD and PHP for the date in question.

    This has been a thorn in my flesh for some time but I've been too
    busy
    to deal with it.  The non-profit where I volunteer works in two
    currencies:  PHP and USD.  The main currency is set to USD.

    Chapter 12 of the Guide implies two ways of tracking multiple
    currencies:  Manually (without trading accounts) and Automatically
    (with
    trading accounts).  I do not have trading accounts activated.

    Every time I exchange USD into PHP I enter the exact number of PHP
    received for he exact USD value.

    Today I tracked down the first instance of the Balance Sheet going
    out
    of balance.  On July 4, 2023, Assets = Liabilities + Equity.
    [$6562.90]
    On July 5 there is a single transaction moving $626.80 USD to 34,250
    PHP.  But the Balance Sheet for that date shows Assets of $6518.06 vs
    Liabilities + Equity of $6516.45

    There is only one price entry for 7/5/2023 in the price database. 
    I did
    click on the transaction to verify the $626.80 to 34,250 PHP was
    entered
    correctly.

    This transaction was between two asset accounts.  One in USD and the
    other in PHP.  So why did my Asset value drop?  And why is the
    Balance
    Sheet out of balance?  I suspect I'll find more of these as I move
    forward toward today.
