Hi Pobox.Deva, Thank you for the suggestion. I'll try that out. However my problem, I think though I may be wrong, is not the price database but the importing multicurrency transactions.
I even made it simpler. Pre-import, I calculated and populated the currency conversions using just 1 exchange rate. I thought that by doing this I avoid having to maintain a price database that could change on a daily basis. Because this would mean the calculating the conversions prior to import will require me to have a different conversion rate depending on the day. It's possible but I thought it will take more work. But I may be wrong. So do you think that fixing the price database will fix the multi-currency import problem I am having? Thanks.
