    Hi community, first off thank you for contributing and detailing why posting manual journals in a foreign currency is of interest to you all.

    We appreciate our customers would like to see more capability in accounting for and dealing in foreign currencies across Xero.

    In it's current form Manual Journals are a part of Xero that require some upgrade to uplift technology in order to provide capability for ideas like this to be considered. We have intentions of bringing attention to this over the coming year, however getting this done first is necessary before we can even think about adding newer functionality like journaling in another currency to the mix.

    To set the expectation here, there is no work planned over 2023 for this feature. We know it's of high interest and when we're in a place to reassess we will share with you here.

    This would be of great value.
    Our organisation has many projects which receive and payout in foreign currency. Every transaction is converted to AUD. Doing final journals in foreign currency would clarify transactions to the project manager. We currently provide a spreadsheet and manually convert the journals.
    Very unprofessional.
    Thank you
