Full error message "This transaction type doesn't work with foreign currencies. Instead choose Transfer and choose the foreign credit card in the Transferred To dropdown."
How do I resolve this?

Good day, @JimJB.

 

Can you share with me more details about your concern in QuickBooks Online (QBO)? It would be best if you can help us identify which window did you get the error message. 

 

Upon checking on my end, I'm able to successfully transfer my USD account to my EUR account from the Transfer window. 

 

If you're getting an error from this page, I'd suggest opening your account in a private window. This will help us identify if the problem is related to a browser issue. Simply press the following shortcut keys to access this mode:
 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Safari: Command + Option + P

 

If it works, we can clear your browser's cache to optimize QuickBooks' performance. Please follow the given instructions in Step 1: Clear your browser’s cache section in this article: Clear cache to fix issues when using QuickBooks Online. Another way is to use compatible browsers with QuickBooks Online. These are the supported browsers:

 

  • Google Chrome: Version 78 or newer
  • Mozilla Firefox: Version 76 or newer.
  • Microsoft Edge: version 75 or newer
  • Safari: version 12 or newer (Mac only)

 

 Also, we can check these articles for more ideas and information about handling bank transactions:
