Find and Recode: Filter by currency
I find the 'Find & recode' tool very useful, but it would be really helpful if the condition 'Currency' could be added, so that we can choose to see only transactions in a certain currency.
Since MTD for VAT, more and more clients are using digital links as software that automatically extract the VAT amounts from receipts (e.g. Dext), including receipts from other countries. They publish them to Xero and are not aware that they are overclaiming VAT. To make corrections and change these transactions to 'Zero Rated Expenses' we use 'Find & recode'. It would be much easier if we can select the currency of the country they have recently travelled to.

I'd really like this as well - here in Australia, it's GST, but I'd still like to be able to search for transactions in foreign currencies and recode them if they've been accidentally coded as GST expenses when they should be GST-free imports (very important because other countries, such as NZ, also call their general sales tax GST, and clients will often see GST on the invoice and try to claim it when you can't claim NZ GST in Australia and vice versa).
