When entering multicurrency job invoices, you can designate an originating currency in the Job Invoice Entry window and print reports in the originating or functional currency.
You can use the multicurrency feature only for jobs with standard or user defined billing.
Although the originating currency is selected, the functional currency displays in the Job Invoice Entry window and the Standard Invoice or Credit window. The originating currency prints on the invoice. Originating amounts can be viewed in Receivables Management.

About creating invoices with bill code detail

When you create a job invoice for a multi-currency bill code job, the system displays the invoice amounts in the originating currency; previously, the functional currency would display even though the originating currency was selected.
Create job invoices as you normally would, choosing the appropriate invoice format. After the invoice has been saved or printed, the functional currency fields on the job and bill code will be updated with the originating currency amounts. In addition, all drill-downs associated with posted and historical invoices will show billing amounts in the originating currency.

Changing the currency ID on job invoices

You can now change the currency ID directly on the job invoice. You can also enter retention due amounts (for subcontractors) in the originating currency.

1. Choose Transactions > Job Cost > Job Invoice Entry. The Job Invoice Entry window opens.
2. Fill the fields as you normally would.
3. Change the Currency ID, if necessary.

Change orders and bill codes

You can save bill codes to a change order before posting. This allows you to assign bill codes to change orders as change orders are billed, using the change order exchange and not the job's exchange rate.
Note: This feature applies to all jobs, not just those with multi-currency.
