Currency Code Field, Purchase Header Table

Specifies the code of the currency of the amounts on the purchase lines.

The program automatically retrieves the vendor's default currency code from the Vendor table when you fill in the Pay-to Vendor No. field. The field is blank if no currency code has been entered on the vendor card. You can change the currency code if you want to use a currency that differs from the vendor's default currency.

The program uses the currency code and the posting date on the purchase header to find the relevant exchange rate in the Currency Exchange Rate table. This is the exchange rate that the program will use to convert amounts on the purchase lines to LCY and/or an additional reporting currency.

Note

For quote documents, the program uses the currency code and the work date to find the relevant exchange rate in the Currency Exchange Rate table.

You can change the currency by clicking the field.
