Treatment of multi-currencies

Treatment of multi-currencies

Hi,

Not sure if this is a bug or a "feature" but the way that different currencies are treated seems a bit odd.

My "base" currency is GBP but I send some invoices to clients in USD, EUR, etc. What I note is that the "item" prices are always given in GBP (although the currency is not made clear on the invoice) and then at the bottom of the invoice the sub-total is also in GBP (again, currency not stated) and only at the end, for the final total, is the currency converted to USD, EUR or whatever using the exchange rate I input.

Now, I agree day-rates, etc. with my USD-billed clients *in* USD and so really for those clients I think that the "item" prices really ought to be in the invoice currency, and the exchange-rate only used to calculate (hidden from the client) the GBP "value" of the invoice for reporting purposes.

The only way that I can make the invoice look "correct" for my client is to set an exchange rate GBP1=USD1 and then the "item" prices, sub-total and final total all look correct from the client's perspective, i.e. in USD.

It would really be appreciated if you can think about this issue and maybe do something about it. So far this is really the only real failing that I can find with an otherwise really excellent product.

Regards,

Mark
