Thanks Jacopo,
I think I will make a FAQ for that...

Hi Jacopo,
the point below is very important, does it mean the ledger posting is
checking the company base currency against the invoices and payments
and
convert 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 the
incoming and original payment of which we can extract the exchange
rate
used.
In this case no conversion of any document is required, no entry in
the
exchange 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.
Regards,
Hans

There is already support for this in OFBiz: accounting transactions
originated by events in different currencies from the one of GL are
automatically converted using the currency exchange rate of the date
of the transaction.
