Hello !
Here is my problem: All my service fees are in US$ so when I print my invoices, it shows up in $. No problem for US customers.

I cannot figure out what to do to have the invoice print in Euro. Ideally I could set the rate and PT would handle the conversion. Is this doable?

Any other suggestion? Worst case scenario, I manually print the Euro total but that would look a bit weird !

Thank you very much.

I suggest you just bill in dollars and then let them figure out how many euros to pay you. If you convert to Euros on the day you produce the bill, you're exposing yourself to currency risk. If you let them convert on the day they pay it, you'll be sure to get what you asked for.

We sell into Latin America. We bill and collect in dollars. The currencies are volatile enough that we don't want the risk.

I am involved in a school in Bangladesh. The accounting is done in local currency (Taka), but sales invoicing in US$. Salaries are paid in Taka, US$, or Euros.
Would Peachtree have any means of supporting sales, and salaries in multiple currencies?

AFAIK,

1) Short Answer: NO

2) Long Answer: You will need another accounting program, Peachtree doen't support Multi-Currencies.

Hope that helps,
