Foreign Currency

When an invoice is submitted to your company in a currency other than your company’s base currency, the foreign currency used is termed the billed currency in eCounsel. Throughout the Invoices module, the billed currency displays at the invoice, matter invoice, and invoice detail levels, along with a conversion to your company’s base currency if a conversion rate is entered on the Base Info tab for the invoice.

The addition of the Adjusted Billed field at the invoice, matter invoice, and invoice detail levels displays the adjusted billed amount throughout the Invoices module. Users can view the Total Billed, Total Discounts Billed, Total Adjustments Billed, Adjusted Pre-tax Billed, Total Tax Billed, and Adjusted Billed field values in the vendor’s billed currency as well as the Adjusted Base field value in the client’s base currency.

The billed amounts appear in the following areas of eCounsel:

  • Invoices Summary page – the original amount, discounts, adjustments, adjusted pre-tax, tax, and adjusted amounts all appear in the billed currency at the invoice level. At the matter level, the pre-tax amount for all fees and expenses appear in the billed currency. At the invoice detail level, the original amount, discounts, adjustments, and adjusted amounts appear in the billed currency.
