Understanding Domestic Currency Receipts

A domestic currency receipt is a receipt that is in the same currency as the base currency of the invoice.

In this example, the company base currency is USD. You can:

  • Apply a USD receipt to the domestic amount of invoice 221 (USD).

  • Apply a USD receipt to the domestic amount (USD) of invoice 222 (EUR).

The currencies for the invoices are:

  • Invoice Number: 221

    Domestic currency of invoice: USD

    Foreign currency of invoice: None

    Domestic currency of receipt: USD

  • Invoice Number: 222

    Domestic currency of invoice: USD

    Foreign currency of invoice: EUR

    Domestic currency of receipt: USD

The receipts, which are in the base currency of the company (USD), pay the domestic amount of the invoices, even though one of the invoices has a foreign amount (EUR).

The system does not calculate a realized gain or loss on domestic currency receipts.
