Multi-Currency Module - PASTEL

[Bheesham]

I did try to go through the “Help Topic” and apply what I read, but, it all went wrong. Nothing worked!!!

I can’t use this module at all!

I have a client who deals in 3 different FC and MUR as home currency. I don’t even know how and where to go to do the distinction between home currency & FC:

Till now I have only done this:-





For below print screen, I don’t understand which one to choose: I know that I’ll have to repeat the same procedures for all the 3 FC:




How to make my JOURNALS /CASHBOOKS to become like this:

I.E to take account of payments to foreign suppliers / receipts from debtors etc as well how to record sales or purchase to / from a foreign client or supplier as I did try, but I don’t have the followings columns to work with:
1. Foreign supplier / debtor column
2. Exchange rate column





Brief, I want to be able to do this:-

I'm not sure about what u did so far, but what I know is you must first create the customers and suppliers with applicable foreign currency, then you can process entries accordingly

Please help. My reporting currency is € and my foreign currency is US$.

I have setup bank accounts on pastel and clearly indicated the FC accounts with applicable currency. I then uploaded exchange rates and captured transactions in the cashbook and posted them. Now Im trying to do the foreign bank account revaluation and stuck. Im using pastel evolution. I dont know what information is required where.

1. At first I select the bank I account I want to revalue (I had captured transactions for January)
2. under period I selected the month
3. "Currency exchange rate date" I selected 31 January.......(I really dont know if this is correct)
4. Linked my Journal batch and clicked view

The view shows my Bank account, the currency, the pastel account balance in €, the exchange rate on 31 January and foreign balance in US$. So what do I do next?
