Estimates

Creating an Estimate in a different currency

  1. Create Estimate Header  and click “Save”
  2. On the top right hand side, Click on the hyperlink for Currency
  3. Use the drop down menu under Estimate Currency and select the currency you would like to use.
  4. Click Save
  5. On the top right hand side of the screen you will see the estimate currency with an asterisk
  6. The estimate will be created in the selected currency and when you invoice this estimate the invoice will be produced in the selected currency.

Note that where there are multiple estimates for a job, that all estimate versions created for that job must be in the same currency.

There is a database setting that allows you to apply Estimate FX Rates for all Production invoices invoices created from estimates. In other words there will be no exchange variance between the Estimate and the Production Invoice it was created from.

If you wish to turn on this database setting go to Setup Files > Setup Options > Other Settings and check the box to the left of "Use Estimate FX Rate for Production Invoices".
