Not able to enter Bills & Income Reminders in Foreign Currencies

I'm unable to enter a Bill or Income Reminder in a Foreign Currency.  Multicurrency support is checked.  I have account in foreign currency..  but when entering a reminder paid from the foreign currency accounts, it still defaults to USD - my "Home" currency.

    Odd. I have several scheduled reminders, some working solely in € - accounts, some even transferring money between € and US$ accounts correctly.
    The only "problem" is that traditional Bill and Income Reminder views don't seem to care about currency and only show the numeric amount without a currency sign ... not a problem for me, because the transaction appears correctly in the account registers.
    Newer Bill, Income & Transfers views seem to always hard code $xx.xx regardless of currency, yet execute correctly in the foreign currency ...

    When looking at printed reports you have to pay attention to the report header lines. They indicate if a report containing transactions from multiple currency accounts is converted to US$ (your Home currency) or any other selected currency.
    If you want to see foreign currency transaction reports in their respective currency you must customize the report and include only foreign currency accounts, e.g., only € or only Can$, etc.
