Currency Override Dialog Box

If the published exchange rate is not applicable to a voucher's transaction currency or payment currency, use the Currency Override Dialog Box to specify a different exchange rate or date.

The published exchange rate might not be applicable if the vendor's contract terms specify a different exchange rate or exchange date, or if the published exchange rates have not been entered in Vision in Configuration > General > Daily/Period Exchange Rates.

Location

To display the dialog box, complete the following steps:

1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Accounting > Accounts Payable > Create Voucher from PO.
2. Select a vendor.
3. On the toolbar, click Currency.
