[moneydance] Mult-Currency

[Rowland Wren]

I have been using Multi-Currency since I began using MoneyDance and  
have no complaints. My base currency is GBP but I have accounts in  
EUR, USD and CHF. Just set up the accounts in the currency you want  
and if you make a purchase say on a USD Credit Card in EURs just add  
EUR after the amount and MoneyDance will make the conversion. You  
will have to do some tweeking when you reconcile as the exchange rate  
the card issuer uses may not (almost certainly not!) be the same as  
that which MoneyDance picks up.


Good Luck

Jim
