Customer GBP invoice was paid in USD so how to record this transaction?

A GBP 19k sales invoice was issued in Jan 2020 and USD equivalent was USD 25,088.74. Today the customer paid GBP 19k but the USD equivalent I received is USD 23,179.61. How to record below journal entry to receive this payment, however, since the customer account created is GBP so I get below error to post. "The currency of your deposit account and currency of the customer must be same.? 

 

Dr. Cash USD 23,179.61

Dr. Foreign Currency Exchange Loss USD 1,909.13

Cr. Accounts Receivable USD 25,088.74
