Hi there, @jared-thinline-c

 

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to the QuickBooks Community for support.

 

To clarify, are you using multi-currency in QuickBooks Online? If so, I wanted to mention that you can assign a single currency to most types of accounts, including customers, vendors, bank and credit card accounts, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. That said, it sounds like assigning a single currency to your credit card account is something you may need to do. 

 

To do this, you'll need to add a new account for each different currency you use in transactions. Here's how: 

 

  1. Click on the Gear Icon.
  2. Choose Chart of Accounts.
  3. Select New.
  4. In the Account dialog, pick the appropriate Account Type and Detail Type.
  5. Enter a Name for the new account and an optional Description.
  6. Tap on the currency to assign to the account from the Currency dropdown menu.
  7. Hit Save and close.

 

For additional details about this process, check out How to add a foreign currency account

 

I've also gone ahead and included a couple of handy help articles that you may find beneficial below that covers more information about using multi-currency in QuickBooks Online. 

 

 

Please let me know if you have further questions or concerns. I'm always here to lend a hand. Take care!
