Multi-currency allows administrators to enable multiple currencies alongside their base currency in their EZOfficeInventory account. Each vendor within the system is assigned a specific currency at the time of its creation, and all purchase orders for that vendor are processed accordingly. Transactions—including costs, purchases, and depreciation—are recorded in both the local and base currencies.
