Hello accounts,

I'd be glad to help you out with this.

First, you need to set up a customer with a (Euro) currency by following these steps:

  1. On the left panel, click Sales.
  2. Click the Customers tab, and click the New customer button.
  3. Enter the customer's information, and click the Payment and Billing tab.
  4. Choose EUR Euro from the This customer pays me with drop down menu.
  5. Click Save.

Then, create the invoice transaction by clicking the Create (+) icon, and selecting Invoice under Customers.

When you run the Profit & Loss or Balance Sheet report, the amount will be converted to your home currency. However, you can click on the Sales amount, and customize the transaction report to include the other currency.

For any clarifications or other concerns, please let me know. Thank you.

Hello everyone.

I'm grateful that you took the time to provide me with a screenshot on the steps that you've tried. Let's get this currency concern sorted out.

 

You'll need to make sure that the Multi-currency option is turned on successfully. Turning this on allows you to have the ability to deal with foreign currencies. Bear in mind that once you've turned the Multi-currency feature on, you cannot turn it off again.

 

To do that:

  1. Click on the Gear icon.
  2. Under Your Company, select Account and Settings.
  3. From the left menu, select Advanced.
  4. Select the edit (pencil) icon in the Currency section and choose your Home Currency.
  5. Select the Multi-currency checkbox and confirm that you understand that you can't undo this option.
  6. Select Save.

For more details about this process and how Multi-currency works in QuickBooks, please refer to these articles: 

How to turn on Multi-currency and add or delete currencies. 

How Multi-currency works.

 

I've also attached some screenshots to outline the steps:

 

 

After that, you can go ahead and set up your customer with a (Euro) currency by following these steps: 

  1. On the left panel, click Sales.
  2. Click the Customers tab, and click the New customer button.
  3. Enter the customer's information, and click the Payment and Billing tab.
  4. Choose EUR Euro from the This customer pays me with drop down menu.
  5. Click Save.

Please check out the screenshot below for your reference:

 

That should do it. Please let me know if I can be of additional assistance. I'll be around to help. Have a wonderful weekend ahead!
