Accounting and foreign currency

 

Dear all

when using foreign currency OpenERP will book into the accounting journal entries in foreign currency and its equivalence in reference currency calculated with the
defined exchange rate.

Doing so makes the reconciliation process confusing because you need to match an entry coming from the bank in foreign currency with an entry coming from the accounting plan in
reference currency.

Shouldn't we enter everything in the currency used for the transaction and only use the exchange rate
for reports and layouts ?
