Are you sure that you are getting an error or is it just a warning?

I just tried the following on version 7.5.4:

1. Used Process Invoices screen to post an invoice for 1,000 CAD
2. Used Process Cash Receipts screen to post a cash receipt for 800 USD and applied it to the invoice from previous step
3. I get the following warning during posting, but it still allows me to post: "Acct XXXX-XXX - Doc Curr CAD is not the same as Home Curr USD. Will post in Home Curr USD."

Hi Tim

Thank you for your respond.

Still having problem, I follow your suggestion.

1. I used US$ instead of canadian dollor in process invoices for 1,000.00 US$

2. I used process cash receipts screen and I am trying to post 1,100.00 Canadian Dollar (100 is for     exchange).

When i am trying to apply the 1,100 canadian dollar to my invoice in 1,000 US. it show a message of INVOICE BALANCE CANNOT BE NEGATIVE.

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks

Hmmm, I'm not sure. What exchange rate are you using? It seems like 1,100 CAD is converting to more than 1,000 USD which is causing the invoice balance to go negative.

Exchange rate is 1 is to 1 tim

Hmmm, I think that might be your problem. If the exchange rate is 1:1, then it's trying to apply a 1,100 USD cash payment to a 1,000 USD invoice. That would make the invoice balance negative.

Is the 1:1 exchange rate intentional? Or maybe no one is updating the rates? Do you update them manually?
