Question

I have vendors that provide bills in multiple currencies, how can I record these?

I have a supplier who sends one type of invoice for processing payments in GBP and licence fee invoices in USD.

 

I have found a restriction with the API that bills must match the supplier currency.

 

How can I add bills with different currencies for a supplier?

Thanks for taking the time to scour our Community space for potential solutions, talentdesk.

 

If you are trying to record bills in multiple currencies via API, then we have a separate and dedicated forum that handles concerns about this one. You'll have to visit the Intuit Developers page. This is the place where developers engage with others to discuss programming concerns. I'd recommend posting your question from there. This way, our developers can provide you with ways and tips about integrating supplier bills with multiple currencies from API to QuickBooks Online (QBO). I'll guide you how:

 

  1. Go to this link: https://help.developer.intuit.com/s/.
  2. Choose QuickBooks Online under What do you need help with?.
  3. Click Ask a Question.
  4. Log into your existing Intuit Developer Account or create a new one.
  5. Enter your concern (i.e. Create a payments page for an online product).
  6. Press Ask.

 

I've attached screenshots below that show the first four steps.

 

 

If you have turned on the Multicurrency feature and have connected banks that use foreign currencies, we can add transactions in those currencies to QBO. The Multicurrency feature and foreign currencies are available in QuickBooks Online Essentials and Plus. Here's how to add transactions in a foreign currency:

 

  1. Open the transaction details.
  2. Tap Add.
  3. In the currency fields, enter the Foreign amount or the Exchange rate your bank provides.

 

The program calculates the total, and the Bank Description or Detail fields display the transaction as your bank displayed it on your statement usually with the amount and currency. Here's an article you can refer to for more details about setting up and use multicurrency in QuickBooks Online.
