Why do I suddenly have to switch on multi-currency when transferring from one local account to another?

You're encountering the multi-currency feature in QuickBooks Online, it's possible that you are transferring funds between accounts that use different currencies, or because you are dealing with international transactions, jfjsa. I'll share more inputs about this matter.

QuickBooks Online (QBO) automatically activates the multi-currency feature when it detects transactions involving different currencies, allowing for proper tracking and conversion of amounts. To verify your transaction, you can check your Chart of Accounts and look at the QuickBooks Balance/ Bank Balance column for the two accounts you are trying to transfer between. Make sure they are both set to your home currency.

If you are sure that both accounts are in the same currency and you are not dealing with any foreign transactions, but the issue still persists, try clearing your browser's cache. This can help free up space and may improve your device's performance, as issues are often related to browser settings or cache. If the problem continues, consider switching to a different supported browser.

Leave a comment below if you have additional questions about managing your currency. We'll be willing to lend a hand to assist you.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, none of the suggested solutions worked. I have rechecked to make sure that everything aligns with what you suggested, but no luck. Any other suggestions?

Thanks.

Thanks for getting back to us and confirming that you've verified your account settings and followed the recommended resolution above, fjsa.
