Just want to know if anyone had been able to incorporate this in Peachtree. Would this be possible through PAWCOM? I read that MYOB has this but neither Peachtree or Quickbooks have it. We don't need this for the meantime but it would be nice to know this is possible just in case.

I don't think it's possible to jury-rig multiple currency support in Peachtree's current form. Regarding PawCOM, contact the designer, Robert Walraven, through his web site at www.multiwareinc.com to get his thoughts.

You can only store one currency in the Peachtree database itself. If you want to work with multiple currencies, then you can design an external system for taking your orders and dealing with currency conversion. You would have to print your invoices externally, but that would allow you to generate them in the desired currency with the conversion rate to your standard currency on the invoice. You could then insert the the invoice into Peachtree in your standard currency, showing the conversion factor as a note for reference.

Creating this kind of application could certainly be done with PawCom, but I'm not aware of anyone who has actually done it.
