Opening invoices in multi-currency

[archais]

Hi all. I have a question in regards to the above topic- how do you bring in debtors that are for a currency other than your base currency? Right now, if I try to bring in a Zimbabwe Dollar (ZWL) debt using the Opening Invoice Creation Tool, it will try to post the invoice in my base currency, US Dollars (USD), thus it throws the following error:

Accounting Entry for Customer: XXXX can only be made in currency: ZWL

Hi,

Please check this:

Opening Invoice Creation Tool (Other Currency)

Hello, I could reach a trick to create an opening invoice in a foreign currency other than the default company currency through the following steps: Create a single Opening (Sales/Purchase) Invoice for any Customer/Supplier whose billing currency is the default Company Currency through Opening Invoice Creation Tool. View the opening invoice created and use ‘Duplicate’ from Menu to create a new document with the same values. Edit the info you need to change like the party name, currency…

Hi Ahmed. Thanks so much! As you said in your post, I hope that they do eventually implement multi-currency opening invoices.
