MULTIPLE CURRENCIES<br />

HOW TO SET UP MULTICURRENCIES IN YOUR MAGAYA SYSTEM<br />

or add new ones to it, how to enter a transaction in a different currency, and<br />

how to work with Multicurrencies Reports.<br />

Steps:<br />

You can set up multicurrencies two ways in <strong>Magaya</strong> Explorer: 1) in the Startup<br />

Wizard or 2) in the Maintenance > Configuration > <strong>Accounting</strong> screen:<br />

Select the Home Currency. Be aware this option is active only if there are no<br />

existing accounting transactions. It is recommended that home currency be set<br />

up in the Startup Wizard; steps for using the wizard are explained in the <strong>Magaya</strong><br />

Cargo System Operations <strong>Manual</strong>.<br />

When you check the box “Use Multicurrency”, the system will activate the use<br />

of more than one currency in your accounting system. Be aware this option<br />

cannot be reversed if there are existing accounting transactions in different<br />

currencies in the system. The transactions would need to be deleted before the<br />

system will allow you to reverse this option. You must click the “Save” button<br />

before you activate individual currencies.<br />

Reverse Exchange Rate: If you work with currencies that convert to very small<br />

amounts, you may want to work with the reverse rate. Check the box for this<br />

option, and your <strong>Magaya</strong> system will calculate the rate for you. Leave unchecked<br />

for the direct exchange rate.<br />
