Hello,

I'd like to be able to see (in Fava) the total expenses (USD only) vs the 
total cost (USD, POINT, MILE) of a vacation I took, where some of the 
expenses were paid with points and miles.

How should I book these transactions?

For this transaction,

2024-01-01 price POINT 0.01 USD
2024-01-19 * "Hotel"
    Expenses:Travel:Lodging             
    Liabilities:CC               -68.30 USD
    Assets:Points             -40000 POINT

I've tried

1)    Assets:Points             -40000 POINT
2)    Assets:Points             -40000 POINT @ 0.01 USD
3)    Assets:Points             -40000 POINT {0.01 USD}

(2) and (3) always show up as USD, even if I select "At cost" or "Units" in 
Fava

(1) does what I want... but relies on the 'global' POINT -> USD conversion. 
I'm wondering if there is an explicit conversion method like (2) or (3) 
though, because if I have several point accounts, and am regularly spending 
points at different values with different merchants, I'd prefer to track 
conversion per-transaction than update a global value. The global value 
doesn't work if I have two transactions in the same day with different 
conversions.

Thanks,

   -k.
