Hi Jacopo, the point below is very important, does it mean the ledger posting ischecking the company base currency against the invoices and payments andconvert where required?
Yes,the "company base currency" is set in the PartyAccountingPref (sorry, I don't remember the name exactly) and you have to enter a record in the CurrencyUomDated entity. If this information is available then you'll notice that the AcctgTransEntry will have two different amounts in the fields:
amount/currencyUomId and origAmount/origCurrencyUomId You can also test it creating a manual transaction. Hope it helps, Jacopo
On the payment we have the payment amount/currency fields for both theincoming and original payment of which we can extract the exchange rateused.In this case no conversion of any document is required, no entry in theexchange table is required and we keep all amounts in the ledger obviously in the companies base currency.... let me know if i am right on this.
