Profit & Loss - Option to use monthly average exchange rates for multi-currency reporting
When looking at the profit for the current year in a multi currency situation, Xero just uses the conversion date of the report for the lump sum of the year, rather than the exchange rate from each month and then adding them together. This means anyone who has been entering the info into a larger group on a month by month basis has to consistently make forex adjustments, even though they have used the Xero rates of exchange in all the prior months P&L's.
Hi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. The idea is to have the report reflect the historical monthly exchange rates already used in prior period reporting, helping reduce the need for manual foreign exchange adjustments when consolidating financial information.
Thanks again for sharing this feedback. We appreciate the examples from the community around how this could make multi-currency reporting more consistent.
