Dear experts, I'm pretty new to Navision 2013 so I need someone to shine some light on this. My Nav is setup with USD as the base currency for all the companies. Normally I do a copy of a company (template) with USD as the LCY. I need the new company to have another currency as the LCY. What do I need to change? Is it just the currency settings and general ledger setup? Thanks in advance.

You need brute force to get it clean again, no other way possible. Since the currency code will be the LCY, and you've already posted with it, the exchange rate should be 1:1. As long as nobody enters a different exchange rate, and the posting routine always finds an exchange rate (in the allowed date range to be posted), then you're sort of fine. The only additional restriction is that you can only post in LCY with explicit currency code to these bank accounts. Others are not really an issue, except from "cleanliness".
In the case that you already have transactions done on that currency what steps should you take to ensure you get back to your setup explained above since you can't delete the currency then directly.
Hi Tharanga, the field is not there. I suppose if it's not there the field is basically empty?
About your second question,
It seems it is a modification done to Dynamics NAV and will not be able to provide a solution for that without knowing the modification. Best thing is to contact your partner and discuss about the modification.
In the "Invoicing Tab" under "Foreign Trade" you will be able to see the Currency Code assign for the vendor, customer.
If the field is not there you might have to contact your partner and ask him to add the field to your page.
Thanks Jens and Tharanga. I've checked those places you've mentioned and the only input I find is foreign currency. There's no LCY options in Customers, Vendors or Banks. Am I missing something? Also due to we having multiple companies, my vendor setup a sync feature whereby all COA, Vendors, Customers, Exchange rates can be sync across all companies from the "main" company. Is there a way I can block the sync of currencies to this new company so that the usual base currency won't overwrite the new currency of this new company?
What Jens mention was if your new currency is GBP and if you have define "GBP" in the Bank, Customer, Vendor accounts as currency then you will have a issue. Because NAV always get "" as the default currency code.
Therefore make sure you have not define your new local currency code in any other sub ledgers. If you have define, then NAV will start on looking for a exchange rate for GBP in the exchange rate table.
Hi Patrick,
yes. Local Currency has code '' in a company. If you copy your master data into the new company, you need to make sure that the new local currency code (only present in G/L setup) is nowhere set in the bank, customer, vendor records, because it's LCY and should be empty.
with best regards
Jens
