Hello Murugan,

On my live setup rounding happens for all currencies, including the default 
currency. That is the problem for which I started this thread in the beginning. 
In addition, this rounding leads to discrepancies in payment processing.

Regards,

Alaa

hi Alaa

this is the behaviour i also observerd, so the rounding is controlled by the 
currency of the customer. so probably you can try a new customer in your 
existing install and check

Hello Murugan,
I went ahead and created a Yen A/R account under the default A/R account. I 
then added an invoice for your Yen based Customer 1, with a value of 236.78. 
The value of this invoice is rounded up in the totals and the A/R Aging report. 
On the other hand, values of the dollar-based customers are not affected. 
I also added an invoice to a dollar client. No rounding or discrepancies 
exhibited in this case.
This is closer to the behavior of my actual live setup, except that in my setup 
rounding happens for all clients, including dollar clients.
The resulting test .gnucash file is attached for your perusal.

Regards,

Alaa

Hello Murugan,

Thanks. I opened the file you sent and saw the new customer with the new 
invoice you created, which seems to be empty. 

I think the problems begin when an invoice with an amount is created. In this 
case, GC will require an A/R account with the same currency as the customer. 
That is when discrepancies begin to appear.

I have a question before I proceed with adding test invoices. In my original 
live setup, I have the non-dollar A/R accounts as children of the dollar 
(default) A/R account, so that the parent account always shows the total A/R 
amount.

• My question is whether this is the correct setup, and if not, where should 
the A/R accounts for the secondary currencies be placed?

Regards,

 

Alaa

hi Alaa

 

i have created a customer called customer 1 with their currency as Yen.  i have 
created a invoice also for your reference. you can try creating new invoices 
with franctions for them and you can see the rounding

Hello Murugan,

 

I did lookup a number of customers, each of which had a USD currency, and their 
invoices were also USD, but rounding still occurs for them.

 

Can you elaborate on what you mean by “a customer currency with no fractions”?

 

Regards,

 

Alaa

Alaa 

 

The rounding occurs based on the customer currency , so if your base currency 
and customer currency are USD , it will not have any problem , but in case you 
have a customer currency with no fractions , even when you create USD invoice 
it will round it , 

 

Can you look up one customer and tell me the currency of the customer and 
invoice currency 

 

 

Regard

 

Murugan

Hello Murugan,

 

Thanks for looking into this. I checked a number of customers, and each shows 
the currency that was entered when I created the customer initially. I also 
checked a number of invoices and found that the currency for the invoice was 
consistent with that of the customer.

 

Please note the reply to David Kirkby that I sent to the list. I created a 
minimal test .gnucash file with only one currency and tried a number of 
experiments with it. This did not exhibit the problem. This of course is much 
simpler than my real setup where I have clients with different currencies, and 
also bank accounts with different currencies.

 

Regards,

 

Alaa

hi Alaa

 

Can you please do a quick check

 

1.      find customer
2.      view/edit
3.      Billing information 
4.      What currency is being shown in this .  

i was able to recreate the issue in a test file and i think this could be the 
issue.

Hello Dave,

 

Sounds reasonable. I will do this as soon as I get some free time this evening.

This is the first time I email to the list. So, I don't know if screenshots
will show up, but I am including below a succession of screenshots for a
fake customer invoice to demonstrate the problem.

 

 

Yes they do show up. It would probably be worth your while creating a test 
.gnucash file, emailing that, and let people see if they get the problem with 
your file. 



Thanks for your help.
