To avoid duplicating the discussion, please see my answer here: [Employee balances with multi-currency transactions - #5 by mayerwin](http://forum.manager.io/t/employee-balances-with-multi-currency-transactions/1671/5)  
The tentative workaround I mentioned in my first post (using journal entries) does not actually work due to “employee clearing account” sub accounts not supporting foreign currencies. So the only way would be to create a separate “liability” account (which cannot currently be nested within Wages and salaries).
