Multicurrency support for Paycheck setup

kstcdaniel

I am new to Quicken, and in setting up my Paycheck, I discovered that only accounts that match the Home Currency when Multicurrency Support is enabled are available for selection in the Account drop-down menu.

In this modern age of remote work and international business, it is increasingly more probable that a person's paycheck may be deposited into an account that is in a different currency than their base currency.

I am requesting that this feature be added, where all accounts, regardless of whether the accounts' currency matches the Home Currency or not, appear in the Paycheck Setup Wizard.

I think this is a reasonable idea … but there's a problem with it also.

A paycheck transaction is recorded into an account with SOME designated currency. And only a single currency can EVER be recorded into a single Q account … so I'm unsure how that "other" currency could be recorded within the paycheck.

What you'll probably need to do, until they (if ever) implement this, is record the amount going to the other currency to some banking type account denominated in the Home currency, and then do a transfer to the "other" account.

I also need this type of capability and want to add my name to the request.

You need to click vote button the grey box that currently only has the 1 original vote.

Given that requests usually require 50 votes to even be passed on to the developers for consideration and the complexity of the request I doubt this will ever be implemented. If I was in need of this I would probably use another normal reminder with split lines.
