I have recently started using beancount and fave and hav a question
regarding prices, and if it is possible to keep them within the scope of
the transaction.
Let's say that we have a set of transactions as follows:
2018-09-02 * "Invoice" "1"
Assets:AccountsReceivable:Company 1000 AUD ;
@ 0.70 USD
Income:Company
2018-09-09 * "Invoice" "2"
Assets:AccountsReceivable:Company 1200 AUD ;
@ 0.70 USD
Income:Company
2018-09-16 * "Invoice" "3"
Assets:AccountsReceivable:Company 900 AUD ;
@ 0.70 USD
Income:Company
2018-09-23 * "Invoice" "4"
Assets:AccountsReceivable:Company 1100 AUD ;
@ 0.70 USD
Income:Company
2018-09-29 * "Payment Received" "Invoices September 2018"
; This bank transaction is completed in AUD, but the bank has internally
; evaluated it with a price that has a conversion rate of @ 0.70 USD
Assets:Country:Bank:AUD
4180 AUD
Expenses:Financial
20 AUD
Assets:AccountsReceivable:Company
Even though bank account will hold AUD, I need to keep track of this
evaluation for every payment, which will reflect on one or more invoices.
The reason for this is that the yearly income threshold is evaluated in
USD, according to the evaluation on the day of the transaction. Thus the
exchange rate is only useful for reporting, so I can check the yearly
income converted to USD. Other than that, the currency should remain AUD.
What would be the best way to keep track of this in beancount?
I have attempted to use prices, but fava uses only the last price to
evaluate the whole year or month. Also, prices seem to be global, so might
be unintentionally used on other transactions.
Thanks
