Important
- Features explained below are available when the multi-currency setting is enabled. For more information, please read the following: Exchange Rate Setup and Vendor's Currency Setup.
- Costs and exchange rates entered in Standing Orders (SO's) will be transferred to Prebooks and Purchase Orders once they are created, either through the manual or through the automatic process.
Entering costs in vendor's currency while adding or editing Standing Orders
When a product is being added to a Standing Order for a vendor who has a different currency, the system will identify the currency and the exchange rate set up, so that the user enter the cost in the vendor currency and the price, in your company currency.
This also applies while adding products in units and mixed boxes. Costs will be entered in the foreign currency and by hovering the mouse over the currency name, the system will display the exchange rate and the unit cost, both in the vendor currency and in the company currency.
From the Standing Order Summary
You will visualize costs in your vendor currency (when it is different from your company currency) from the Standing Order details screen and while using the Edit Vendor and Cost option.
How to update costs in your Vendor's currency
Standing Orders created before the 15th of October, 2020 won't display the vendor currency and the exchange rate. To update and visualize multicurrency information for those orders, follow the next steps.
- Go to Prebooks & SO's>>Standing Order Summary.
- Search for the Standing Order for which you want to update the cost in foreign currency.
- Click on the option Edit Vendor and Costs option from the Actions column.
- Reenter the vendor of the Standing Order. Once you do that, the cost field will be updated displaying the cost in your vendor currency. Hover the mouse over the currency symbol to see the current exchange rate and the cost in your company's currency.
- Click on Done to save the changes.
