Hi all, I deal mainly in AUD but I sporadically have to deal with USD, CAD and THB. Ledger works great for me here as it keeps the currencies separate for each account. It also (seems to) store conversion rates when I do something like this (ie. paying for a service in USD coming from my AUD cash):
2008/08/05 Something
Expenses:Foo USD$20.00
Assets:Cash $-21.48
Then when doing a balance with the '-B' option it keeps it all in AUD.
What I am wondering is when accounts have multiple currencies stored in
them how can I display my accounts all in a single currency with
conversions appropriate to the date of each transaction? I assume using
the price database but I can't find any example of storing currency rate
histories (as apposed to stock).
Is there an easy way to do this and is what I described above a valid
assumption?
