Hello David and everyone, Thank you for your messages. A little background about myself: I'm a Canadian (born and raised), and a CPA. I have been using GnuCash for a while now, but am interested in delving deeper into its functions that can be useful to me. I use GnuCash only for personal and private use for my household, not for business purposes in any way.
I am currently running Microsoft Windows 10 Pro (Build 19045) on my main machine at home, and am using GnuCash Version 4.10 with "Finance::Quote 1.54" and perl (v5.32.1). I am enjoying the Chapter 9 - Investments part of GnuCash and have successfully set up the Automatic Online Retrieval of Stock Quotes. What a great function! The trouble is, I can't figure out a way to have any foreign investments denominated in my local currency (CAD). For example, if I invest in, let's say, Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL), which is traded on the NASDAQ (a foreign market for me), the share(s) value only shows up in the currency of the market in which it is being traded (in this case, USD). How do I get GnuCash to denominate and show me my foreign investments in my local currency (CAD)? Not sure if this is related but, I also tried to set-up the currency exchange function, but it appears that this is no longer functional due to the API Key from Alphavantage. Is this true? https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798599 Thank you everyone. Happy to see that there is a supportive and collaborative community here!
