Adding a transaction in another currency

Post by Arnauld »

Hello,

I just installed Money Manager Ex and created an account in Euro. However I need to add a transaction in USD. How can I do that?

Thank you.

"Not sure of the exact use case for this can you elaborate? What real world accounts actually work like this?
If I make a foreign currency transaction on any of my accounts it gets reflected in my account as a transaction in the base currency with the bank doing the rate change (with perhaps a fee). If you wanted to record the actual original foreign currency value you can use the notes field."
Thanks, it makes sense! :-)
