How to apply multicurrency to each sales

Hello.

We set multicurrency option on Account and Settings.

I heard we can choose this option apply it to each customer and each sales(invoice/estimate/payment)

Can you explain this in detail?
Cannot find  any currency option when making  invoice, estimate, and so on.

 

Looking forward to reply ASAP!

How to apply multicurrency to each sales

Once you have enabled the multi currency feature, you have to create first a customer profile and assign it with a certain currency prior to create an estimate, an invoice, or a sales receipt. Another option to deal with any multi currency transaction to get a better exchange rate and lower fee.

How to apply multicurrency to each sales

Hello there, jennyhan.

 

It's my pleasure to have you here and help you out with your concern.

 

That's great that you've done turning on the Multicurrency feature by yourself. And yes, we can apply different currency to our customers and the sales transactions.

 

As mentioned by Fiat Lux - ASIA, we'll need to assign our customers to their currency by following the steps below. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Sales on the left panel.
  2. Within the Customers tab, click the New customer at the upper-right corner.
  3. Record all your customer's information by adding them in the fields. 
  4. In the Payment and billing section, click the This customer pays me with drop-down arrow.
  5. Select their currency. Then, hit the Save button.

 

Once we use the customer when creating sales transactions, it'll automatically generate the currency you've set up for them. Let's this sample screenshot for additional reference:

 

 

 Also, I'm adding these articles where you can gather additional details on how to manage and handle multiple currencies in QBO:
 

 

Please let me know if there's something more I can help you with QuickBooks. I'd be glad to help you further. Keep safe and be well!

How to apply multicurrency to each sales

We can use our Multicurrency feature to create an invoice for US currency, Alfas-Cross.

 

The Multicurrency feature gives you an option to record your transaction in foreign currencies. Once the feature is turned on you cannot turn it off again. Here's how to turn on this feature: 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Account and settings
  2. From the Advanced menu select the Currency section. 
  3. Select your Home currency and confirm that you understand that you can't undo this option.
  4. Press Save and close.

 

Now you have the option to assign foreign currencies to your sales transactions and even on your customer's profile page. Here's how:

  1. From the left menu, click Sales.
  2. Select Customer, then New customer.
  3. In the Customer information window, fill out the needed information.
  4. Choose Payment and billing.
  5. In This customer pays me with field, select the customer's currency. This is the currency that the customer uses to pay you for products or services.
  6. Press Save.

 

For the steps and details, you can check out the Assign a foreign currency to a customer in QuickBooks Online article. Then, an invoice will automatically generate the currency you've set up for this customer. That's how it works. I'm sure you'll be needing these handy articles soon to learn more about the multi-currency feature in QBO:
