Error when adding new Exchange Rate for currency

Hi,

 

I am using QuickBooks Desktop: Premier Accountant Edition.

I try to manually enter exchange rates for a Currency by going to Currency List and choosing Edit Currency for the chosen currency.

 

After inserting a new line (entering As Of Date and dhe new exchange Rate) I get the following Error: 

One or more changes to the exchange rate history for this currency could not be saved (as in the screenshot) 

 

Do you know why does it happen and how can I fix it?

Hi,

 

Thanks for the reply.

I have a perpetual licence for the Desktop Edition and I do not think I have Technical Support included anymore.
Can they still help me?

HI Liseasyp. my apologies for that. Can we ask you to go to try rebuilding the data. If you go to file>utility>rebuild data. Do you then get the same message after entering the date and new exchange rate?:smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:-Emma

Yes. I have done it several times. It does not work.

 

It's strange because it shows that error in the first days of a new month. It will display that error on the first X days of the month and then after X days it will begin to work. Then, it stops working again the next month for the first days.

Try changing the date format from MM/DD/YYYY TO DD/MM/YYYY and it should work. Once Exchange Rate is entered and saved revert date format back to MM/DD/YYYY.
