Just out of curiosity, can you not post a CAD invoice to an A/R account that is set for USD?
I would have thought that GnuCash would have done the conversions for you. Thankfully, I don’t have that problem (yet) but my first inclination would be to do just that: maintain MY A/R account in my home currency but invoice customers in their home currency. I don’t see why it would be any different than any other transaction posted into an account with a different currency default. Perhaps I’m misunderstanding something. But if you can do as I suppose, you could eliminate the complication of extra accounts and the placeholder issue and just use the A/R account as normal. (save for the conversions done for foreign billing and the conversion on several reports) Regards, Adrien > On Jun 1, 2018, at 8:39 AM, Matthew Pounsett <[email protected]> wrote: > > A short aside..
