Hello All,
This is the first time I am posting, so if this question is already
answered previously, I'm sorry for the noise and please direct me to it. I
did some searching but could not find it.
I live in India and the default currency I want to see reports in is Rs
(Rupees). Payments to international service providers happens in $, and
then on my credit card statement I see the actual amount I was charged in
Rupees. Here are some example transactions:
2023/07/18 * OpenAI Invoice
liabilities:vendors:openai $ -14.83
expenses:programming
2023/07/24 * OpenAI Payment Receipt
liabilities:card:icici $ -14.83 @@ Rs 1267.82
liabilities:vendors:openai
2023/08/08 * OpenAI Invoice
liabilities:vendors:openai $ -0.79
expenses:programming
2023/08/15 * OpenAI Payment Receipt
liabilities:card:icici $ -0.79 @@ Rs 68.36
liabilities:vendors:openai
2023/09/13 * OpenAI Invoice
liabilities:vendors:openai $ -10.67
expenses:programming
2023/10/03 * OpenAI Payment Receipt
liabilities:card:icici $ -10.67 @@ Rs 924.11
liabilities:vendors:openai
Here, OpenAI sends me an invoice in $, I make the payment on my credit card
in $, and then I look at the credit card statement to see how much I was
actually charged in Rs by the bank and note that amount down.
The problem is that I'd like `ledger -X Rs bal liabilities:vendors:openai`
to show that I owe 0 Rs to pay back to OpenAI, but it does not do so due to
the fluctuating $ price.
How do I do this?
I've read the commodities and lot-prices sections of the manual, but
perhaps I didn't understand them correctly. The changing rate of the $ is
important information that I want to capture, but it's equally important
that the liabilities:vendors account be balanced properly.
Thanks,
Vedang
