Yes, that is the way to go for now since currency is on a per customer basis as of FA 2.4.8. Maybe, FA 2.5 can have currency per branch. There exists a default branch bank account but may mix up currencies and exchange rate computations if used for a single customer!

For me, I created another account for this customer but with a different short name for another currency:

For example,
Company name: ABC Co., Ltd
Short name: ABC-USD

The second account would be:
Company name: ABC Co., Ltd
Short name: ABC-SGD

So long as you use a different short name, the system is able to handle it.

Hi @kvvaradha,

This is very long solution, hope there is another easy solution if any.

If do this, i should then modify every things even the reports I guess.

There are two possible ways.

1. Change it with customer ( debtors_master ) table.
2. Customer branch level.

But both are really a bit of tricky and lengthen the process.

You need to record the currency in debtor trans tables and it's customer allocations table.

So you need to pass it overall sales module to get it working.
