wary

Deciding how/where to record something is the primary question of

There was a fairly recent bug about mixed currencies with bills &
invoices. I thought it was sorted out. (my solution was to use Trading
Accounts, but it turns out that should not be necessary, and no longer
is required.)

A caveat about this. Any method of storing data could be used by
