Hi,

Currently, I would like to create a P/O and Purchase invoice with different currencies with ledger currency. Could you please advise how to do it or where can I find the learning material for instructing this.

Thank you so much

    Hi Phoebe,

    Thank you for contacting BC Communities.  This is Bryan and I'll be assisting you.

    Yes this is possible.  You would typically want to set your vendor up with a currency code, which should also be setup, which should also have Exchange Rate specified for that Currency Code.  Then when you add the Vendor to the Purchase Document, it will automatically default in as that specific Currency....and the amount will be in that currency.  

    I will provide you some docs/links on topic...although I believe work is being performed now to further enhance the Currency documentation, but I don't believe that is finished yet...so i'll provide you with what I can find.   The first 2 "learn" links below seem real good.

    Also, be careful, because what you are asking for is for Foreign currency transaction, and not to be confused with Additional Reporting Currency.  So anytime it talks about Additional Reporting Currency, that is something totally different.  All that is, is for you to report on an additional reporting currency.  But you are wanting the Foreign Currency functionality, which we have also.  Just a friendly heads up on that :)

    Thank you.
