I've searched through the mailing archive, but could not find what I needed. In short, is there a way to keep multiple bankaccounts in different currencies, with both incoming and outgoing payments from the different ones and with the possibility of doing account "reconciliation" (or whatever it is called) on each currency account?
From my attempts so far, it seems easy to post an invoice in a foreign currency with an exchange rate which gets used to calculate overall P/L. When the actual payment for the receivable arrives, however, it is difficult to enter it as "paid" from the currency account since it requires me to enter an exchange rate again. Assuming that no other date uses that currency that day, I can always set the exchange rate to 1 and use the actual currency amount, but this is probably not a very good solution. Another solution would be to post the incoming payment in the local amount with the proper exchange rate set, but that could cause trouble if another outgoing payment goes the same day with a different exchange rate (since the system cleverly remembers the exchange rate for each day). Any expert recommendation that allows me to keep track of multiple bank accounts in various currencies without moving everything into the local currency? Thanks, Marius K.
