Major Enhancements
1581: Foreign Currency
Acclamare now supports purchasing of goods from a foreign vendor in that vendor's currency. Users are also now able to pay the vendor in their own currency. At this time, Acclamare does not support the selling of goods in a foreign currency, but the framework needed to put that functionality in place now exists.
2226: AP Adjustment
Currently, Accounts Payable Adjustments are being prohibited for foreign currency vendors.
2229: Bank Withdrawal
The bank withdrawal process has been modified to accept payments to foreign vendors in their currency. The amount in the withdrawal screen will be displayed in the estimated domestic amount. At the time of posting, the system will use the value provided in the exchange rate maintenance screen to calculate the actual domestic amount and record and exchange rate gain or loss.
2245: Company Accounts
Company Accounts now includes an account for Exchange Rate Gain/Loss. The account is located in the Expenses category and must have a value assigned to it.
2257: Company Settings
There is a new field in Company Settings that defines the domestic currency for the company. This is the value that the system will use to compare to the currency in the vendor record to determine if the vendor is using a foreign currency.
2244: Exchange Rate Maintenance
There is a new file maintenance screen under the File Maintenance -> General Ledger menu. This screen allows the user to define the current buying and bank withdrawal rates for any currency.
This exchange rate is always in relation to the company's currency in terms of how many foreign units are needed to equal one domestic unit.
2246: Landed Cost
Landed Cost Allocation is being prevented for vendors that use foreign currency.
2274: Merge Vendors
Due to the addition of foreign currency, both vendors must have the same currency in order to be merged.
2266: Pay a Vendor
The Pay a Vendor process has been updated to support payments to a foreign vendor in that vendor's currency. All values on the screen are being displayed in the vendor's currency.
2250: Purchase Order
Purchase orders can be created for vendors that use foreign currency. The user has the option to customize the line grid to show both the estimated domestic cost and the cost in the vendor's currency. The exchange rate for the purchase order will be captured from the "Buying Rate" in the Current Exchange Rate Maintenance screen.
2251: Purchase Receipt
The Purchase Receipt process has been modified to support the receipt of goods from a purchase order that was placed in a foreign currency. All applicable database fields are being properly updated to reflect the cost in the vendor's currency.
2252: Recurring Vendor Invoice
Recurring Vendor Invoice does not permit the use of foreign currency vendors at this time.
2253: Replenishment
The Replenishment process has been modified to accommodate the creation of purchase orders in a foreign currency.
2254: Rework Order

2259: Unit Cost Adjustment
Unit Cost Adjustment does not permit the use of foreign currency vendors at this time.
2260: Vendor
In order to support foreign currency, there is a new field in the Vendor Maintenance screen where the user can define which currency the vendor uses. Much like the SKU unit of measure in an Item record, this value cannot be changed once it has been saved to the database.
2261: Vendor Aging
Vendor Aging has been modified to support foreign currency. When the vendor uses a foreign currency, the screen will display the values in the vendor's currency instead of your company’s domestic currency.
2262: Vendor Credit
Vendor Credit can now be created in a foreign currency. All values on the screen are to be entered in the vendor's currency. The exchange rate for the credit will be captured from the "Buying Rate" in the Current Exchange Rate Maintenance screen.
2264: Vendor Invoice
Vendor Invoices can now be created in a foreign currency. All values on the screen are to be entered in the vendor's currency.
2265: Vendor Item
No changes have been made to the Vendor Item screen or underlying business logic. However, users should be aware that, when creating or maintaining a vendor item record that is associated to a foreign vendor, they are editing the cost values in the vendor's currency.
2301: Vendor Item Cost Comparison
The Vendor Item Cost Comparison has been modified to account for vendor item costs that are in a foreign currency. Each foreign cost will be shown as an estimated domestic currency value. The user will also be given a visual cue that the row is for a foreign vendor.
2268: Vendor Quote
Vendor Quotes have been modified to support vendors that utilize foreign currency. The user has been given the ability to customize the item grid to show the cost in the domestic currency as well as the vendor's currency. The exchange rate is being captured from the "Buying Rate" in the Current Exchange Rate Maintenance screen.
2269: Vendor Rebate
Vendor Rebate Maintenance does not permit the use of foreign currency vendors at this time.
2270: Vendor Return
Vendor Returns can now be done in foreign currency. The user has the ability to customize the item grid to show the cost in both the domestic currency and in the vendor's currency.
2272: Vendor Return Confirmation
The Vendor Return Confirmation process has been modified to accommodate foreign currency. The process will create the vendor credit with the correct currency and capture the correct exchange rate.
2271: Vendor Return Shipment
