One thing I would like to see is truly multi-currency accounting system.

We do business internationally and I was not able to find a single
accounting system that would be flexible enough to accommodate our
multi-currency requirement.

I'll try to be as short as possible.
We sell our products Internationally, so our preference is to keep
prices in USD.  Our inventory is in USD as well and it stays this way,
as some prices are sensitive so converting it to local currency
(Canadian Dollar) would generate a loss as difference between selling
and buying USD is about 0.08 on each dollar (our loss).

In addition if we generate a PO it is in USD so the pricing stays the
same.  
We sell and buy our products in USD to many Canadian customer as well,
so we need to manually make an adjustment to (tax) GST.

I was talking to folks who make Quasar Accounting system and they
acknowledge that they have the same problem as we do but they don't have
a solution.  So it seems to me we are not alone with this problem.
