Hi, I'd like to know how I should go about tracking transactions with multiple currencies in ledger. To give more context, let me explain my situation.
I live in Mozambique so all of my transactions are made in MT (MZM), I use some services like Dropbox and Netflix which are paid in USD. I buy books on Amazon UK and thus have payments done in GBP. I travel to South Africa to buy some stuff in ZAR. For each transaction made typically the bank will send me a notification telling me how much I paid in MT and the equivalent in the forex currency. Even though Mozambique's central bank publishes rates all of these currencies, I find I cannot use commodity pricing (P) entries in my ledger because in the end of the day each bank has a different exchange rate, and on the same day I can make 2 forex payments in the same currency using two different banks. How should I go about booking these transactions? Thanks -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ledger" group.
