It is possible to setup multiple currencies which can be selected when creating a customer or supplier and used for all relating sales quotes, sales orders, sales invoices, credit notes and purchase orders. The exchange rates are for indication and reporting purposes only, Xero will calculate any foreign currency gains and losses. Admin users can learn how to add, edit, archive and un-archive Currencies within Omono by following the simple steps below.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Currencies must have a corresponding bank account before they can be selected when setting up a new company. Once a Currency is selected and either a sales quote, sales order, credit note or purchase order is raised, the currency selection is locked and it is no longer possible to select an alternative currency.
