I could watch the video and the bug is confirmed, please reopen.

What you are doing is:
* create a product with puchase price 50 EUR.
* create a purchase order on USD with price 60,40 USD (I don't remember the exact price).

But if your partner is in a USD geographical zone, the prices are always expressed in USD.
Do you really think that in real life European company manage USD pricelists in EUR?

Take the example of wheel sold by a US company and purchased by a
European company.

* The price for the wheel is 50 USD.
* You register the purchasing price for 50 USD, not Euros.
When making a purchase order, you select the product and the total price should be 50 USD.

This is only when registering the invoice that price is converted in
EUR.

Furthermore, this is completely insane to phone a client, ask for a
price in USD, then convert it to EUROs, then make a purching order in
USD. Because of conversion and approximations, you are never gonna get
50 USD. But probably 50,01 USD or 49,99 USD.

Please reopen this bug.

Title:
  multi-currency purchase order

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Invalid

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.
