Multicurrency Subtask

Use this optional Multicurrency subtask on the Manage Customers screen to set up default information by customer for use in Costpoint Multicurrency.

Use this subtask only for those customers who do not fully participate in your functional currency (for example, you do not bill them in your functional currency or do not expect payment from them in your functional currency).

You can update this information at any time.

After you post an invoice, you cannot change the transaction currency for that invoice.

After you post a check/EFT payment, you cannot change the pay currency for that invoice payment.
