Hello. I am facing a difficulty where I have to add an EUR transaction (synced automatically from a linked bank account) for an USD supplier. My home currency is GBP.
Is there a recommended way to achieve this? It would be appreciated if I can get an accurate description of the steps to follow since I am new to quickbooks and accounting.
(As a side note, I saw a thread mentioning the use of Clearing Account but I did not quite understand the Journal Entry part)
Thank you.
