Exchange rate error after import

When I import some foreign currency transactions, there is no exchange to the foreign currency balances to basic currency. I need to click the entry one by one to update then the exchanges become normal. Can someone resolved it? Thank you.

What version are you on?

I use cloud, so shall be updated with latest version?

@Hugo, you also need to furnish more information about the situation. It is not clear why you think exchange rates should be present in an imported statement. The financial institution knows only the details of a transaction in the currency in which they occur. They have no way of knowing any other currency you might want to convert to in your accounting records, or even that a transaction will be converted.

Describe the complete flow of a transaction.

@Hugo how did you import these transactions? Is this bank statement import or Batch Create operation?

Importing bank statement should fill in exchange rates, batch create won’t at this time but I agree it should too.

use batch create, so the problem is fixing? around when it will be solved?

I have this problem as well and would love for it to be fixed.

I batch create the transactions from my webshop as invoices using a custom-made export. It is feasible to add the exchange rate in this export, but that feels redundant as I already have to add these rates in Manager.

Would it be possible for transactions not to have their own exchange rate, but just always use the automatic rate, like it used to work?
I’m talking about a dual system, where you can override the globally defined exchange rate (for that date) on a per-transaction basis, but a (default) option where the transaction uses the global rate and doesn’t save the rate as part of the transaction.

Now I’m off to manually correct 138 transactions… :woman_shrugging:

I understand development takes time, but I just want to know if this functionality is on the list of things to add. I’m specifically referring to having the exchange rate automatically set when using Batch Create.

If not, I’ll have to add a step to my workflow to allow for manually adding the exchange rates to stuff I add using Batch Create.

Thanks for the great software! This is not a complaint, just looking for clarification.
