Fibu and currencies

> 1) How do I enter an amount in a different currency in the Journal?

 

First you have to enter the currencies at "Currencies". Then in the Chart of

Accounts enter the abbreviation of the currency in the column "Cur" for

those accounts that are in a foreign currency. But you can do this only if

these accounts have no entries yet.

You can enter the actual rate, or enter both amounts.
