Multiple currencies

Hi,
We have our QB accounts set up in GBP and linked to our sterling bank account. Invoices are raised in GBP and show our sterling bank account details at the bottom of the invoices. This is great!
I want to now add a EURO bank account and prepare invoices that show our EURO bank account details.  However, when I try to add the bank details it says it can't, because the bank already exits. Technically this is true as it is the same bank, but the account numbers are different! Am I being daft?

    Hi Petrina,

     

    Are you trying to connect this bank through the banking screen, or through your Chart of Accounts?

    Are you trying to name it as exactly the same named bank account for the GBP one (eg Lloyds Business & Lloyds Business)? Try calling this Account (for example Lloyds) Lloyds Business Banking UK & Lloyds Business Banking EURO, and then set the currency as EUR.

     

    Thanks
