Sometimes when our customers pay cash, they pay part of the invoice in USD and the other part in Tsh. Would I then have to issue 2 seperate receipts (1 for each currency)?

Yes. A transaction can only be in one currency. In your example, the debit for the transaction goes to the cash account, while the credit goes to _Accounts receivable_. That cash account can only be denominated in one currency. So you first need two cash accounts in the two currencies, then two receipts.
