Enable Application of Ledger Entries in Different Currencies

If you purchase from a vendor in one currency and submit payment in another currency, you can apply the payment to the purchase.

Likewise, if you sell to a customer in one currency and receive payment in another currency, you can apply the payment to the sales invoice.

The following procedure describes how to set this up for vendor ledger entries on the Purchases & Payables Setup page. The setup is similar for customer ledger entries on the Sales & Receivables Setup page.

To enable application of vendor ledger entries in different currencies

  1. Choose the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature icon, enter Purchases & Payables Setup, and then choose the related link.
  2. In the Appln. between Currencies field, select one of the following options.
Option Description
None Application between currencies is not allowed.
EMU Application between EMU currencies is allowed.
All Application between all currencies is allowed.
