Dear @Lubos
It would be interesting for them to consider placing a field in the sales and purchases module that is associated with the exchange rate of a foreign currency. It turns out that for these cases I had to do the calculation manually and put the result in the corresponding field.
Thanks!
Why are you not entering exchange rates under Settings?
Finish. I entering exchange rates under settings but when I register a purchase or sale, how do I activate the automatic conversion to convert the foreign currency to the base.
The conversions in response to exchange rates convert balance sheet amounts in foreign currencies to base currency. Entries for receipts and payments are in the currency of the cash or bank account to which they are posted. Invoices are in the currency of the customer or supplier. So it is not clear what you are converting or why.
In some jurisdictions, although invoices are issued in foreign currency, they must be converted to the base currency immediately. That is what I am trying to implement. Example: I sell to a client in US dollars, but for a legal matter I must record the transaction in base currency, that is, the income and the account receivable is recorded in base currency. It is not my idea but a matter for some American jurisdictions. At the moment I have had to use a calculator to do the conversion. It would have been very functional for manager to do that process automatically.
You need to explain how you do this. Converting currencies with a calculator or automatically is irrelevant. How are you entering the various transactions in base currency if the bank accounts or customers are in foreign currencies? That cannot be done in Manager. So you must be doing something else.
I already resolved it. Thanks for your guidance.
on Sales Invoices you have a checkbox to show the amount in base currency.
