[Bug 1081560] Re: multi-currency purchase order

 

The correct text in the manual should be:

If your trading company wants to start a product catalog in a new currency you can handle this several ways:
1) Create a field in the product form for this new currency and make the new pricelist depend on this field: prices are then maintained separately, but in the product file. But you need programming skills to make sure OpenERP modules can be adapted to handle the new price list.
2) Create a new pricelist for the second currency and make it depend on another pricelist or on the product price: the conversion between the currencies will then be done automatically at the prevailing currency conversion rate.

In OpenERP, price lists were designed mainly for sales and allow to
adjust selling prices. Purchasing in several currencies is not yet
supported by OpenERP, as all purchasing prices are recorded in the base
currency of your OpenERP installation.

Title:
  multi-currency purchase order

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  These remarks apply for OpenERP 6.04 at least:

  Purchase orders should allow to choose a currency. 
  Another reaseon is that Supplier invoices allow picking-up a currency.

  Example:
  EUR is default currency.
  OpenERP enabled currencies: USD and EUR.

  Company A makes a purches order in USD to a US supplier.

  Purchase order is sent to the supplier with prices in USD.
  This makes no sense to send a puchase order to a US supplier with prices in Euros.

  A paymenent is made in USD but registered in EUROs.

  i.e. conversion between currencies should only apply when writing an invoice.
  Not when making a purchase order.
