Invoice in another currency
Raise invoices in a foreign currency with an AED exchange rate.
On Pro and Advance, and during the free trial, an invoice can be in a currency other than your books currency.
- Create the invoice as normal.
- Choose the currency in the Currency field.
- Enter or check the exchange rate.
- Add lines and approve.
A foreign-currency tax invoice shows the VAT amount in AED and the exchange rate used, as UAE rules require. You can also give a customer a default currency so new invoices start in it.
On Startup and Basic
Invoices are always in your books currency, and the currency and exchange-rate fields do not appear. If you move from Pro down to Basic, contacts you saved in another currency keep that currency and can still be edited.
Tip: Your books currency itself is set in Business settings. It can be any currency, and VAT and Corporate Tax are always worked out in AED.
