Change bookkeeping currency

The currency of a bookkeeping can be changed to another currency.

Be advised to first create a new empty bookkeeping.

 

Copy data

Using the option copy data you are able to copy all the data from an existing bookkeeping if you have sufficient rights.

The current data in the bookkeeping is overwritten.

 

New Currency

By filling in a new currency for the bookkeeping the currency of the bookkeeping can be changed.

This can be done against daily rates or a single rate.

 

If the currency of the bookkeeping has been changed daybook differences will occur because the rates can differ on different data.

These differences are being booked on the general ledger that is linked to the daybook.

 

In case the currency of a bank daybook is equal to the new currency, then the bookkeeping values are not calculated again but are copied directly from the bank as bookkeeping value.

This also counts for foreign currency that is filled in using the Ctrl+K function (Different currency). In case the user has filled in a value there in the currency that is equal to the new currency, then this value is being used as bookkeeping value and is not recalculated.

 

Revaluations are removed when the bookkeeping currency is changed.
