Hi...
Perhaps I am not understanding how the multi-currency features work. However, here is what I experience.
My base currency is CAD.
I bill my US client in USD. e.g. $1000 USD
I record payment of invoice and also enter exchange rate. e.g. $1000 USD @ 1.00 USD = 1.033 CAD
When I generate a report I expect the amount for this invoice to be the amount in my base currency (CAD) as calculated using the exchange rate I entered when recording payment ($103.30CAD). However, this is not the case. The report simply shows the amount paid in USD ($1000).
When I look at the client it shows the client as having a balance with a credit of the amount of the exchange difference (-$33.00).
Am I doing something wrong? The client should not have a credit. I billed them in USD but the payment should show up in my report as the amount after conversion to my base currency, no?
Thanks for your insight into this matter.
