Using A/P Ledger in Foreign Currencies

An inquiry about a vendor's running balance when the vendor operates in a foreign currency is done the same way as an inquiry into a vendor who operates with your company's base currency. If the vendor's primary currency is different from your company's base currency, that primary currency is displayed in the top right corner of the screen. The order's values will be based on the exchange rate at invoice time, not on the current exchange rate.

Before using a procedure in the A/P Ledger function, use the following procedure.

Note: The foreign currency exchange functionality is not currently available in Solar as of this release. Use the character-based system to work with foreign currencies.

To change the customer's displayed currency:

  1. From the A/P menu, select A/P Ledger to display the A/P Ledger window.

  2. Use the Currency Exchange ($) hot key to display the Enter New Currency prompt.

  3. At the Enter New Currency prompt, press F10 to select the currency type that the customer operates in.
