Paying Foreign (CHF) Invoice using a Euro Account

[BevN]

I have paid an invoice issued in CHF using my Wise account in Euros. There doesn’t seem to be a way to mark this invoice as paid using that account - all the accounts on the dropdown list are Sterling accounts. Is there was way to do this (or a work around)? Thanks for any help.

Hello @BevN

Due to the nature of the how the exchange rates are calculated, you can not pay a non GBP invoice with a different none GBP currency directly.

The below steps will allow you to allocate these off.

• Set up a dummy GBP bank account - “Holding Account”
• Pay the invoice using the GBP holding account.
• Tag the transaction in your Euro bank account as a bank transfer using the Holding account
