Foreign Currency

In AbaNinja, the currency of a document (e.g. invoice, quote, order, credit note) is always based on the currency stored for the customer. To create an invoice in a foreign currency (e.g. EUR, USD), the desired foreign currency must first be recorded at the customer address; additional foreign currencies are managed in the settings.

Benefits

  • You can issue customer invoices directly in the customer's currency (e.g. EUR or USD), while your accounting is still kept in the base currency (CHF or EUR).
  • Exchange rates are automatically or manually taken into account, depending on the configuration, so that amounts are correctly converted and booked in the base currency.

Notes and tips

  • Once an address or document has been created in a foreign currency, the currency of that address can no longer be changed. If necessary, create separate addresses per currency (e.g. "Customer X (CHF)" and "Customer X (EUR)").
  • The main currencies (CHF, EUR, USD) can be automatically supplied with current exchange rates; additional currencies can be manually maintained as needed.
  • Additional foreign currencies can be added in the settings.
