Currency of Bank Acct must match currency of payee... Error message

US QuickBooks Pro for Windows : 2010

USING WINDOWS 7 & QUICKBOOKS 2010
When I try to edit an existing CDN transaction to correct a spelling mistake, I get the following Error message "the currency of your bank account must either match the currency of the payee receiving the cheque or be your home currency".

I am only correcting a spelling error in the memo field. Canadian vendor. Canadian bank account. Paid in Canadian funds. This also happened when I tried to pay the Visa bill. QB would not accept the vendor "Royal Visa". It gave the same error message. I finally had to create a new vendor, then pay the bill....then edited the two vendors to merge them.
The home currency is CDN, the vendor currency is CDN, and the bill is being paid in canadian with both of these examples

What is going on here?

Help!

I am from Intuit and I am really sorry to hear that. I will pass this use case to our multi-currency team immediately. Thank you for letting us know about this scenario.

Same problem here as well. Just upgraded from QB Pro 2007 to 2010 Pro and getting a version of the same message when I go back and edit a previous record. Looks like it has been several months since the forums reported this. Intuit - you have a fix yet???

SOLUTION

Well - I have this figured out. I was upgrading from QB Pro 2007 MULTI Currency

When QB Pro 2010 asked if I had multi during the conversion process I said no because I forgot the old one had Multi. Once I re-imported and this time said yes to the multi currency question - everything was fine. Hope this helps all the others that have been struggling with this.

This was not the case for me. When I upgraded I answered YES because I do only multi-currency.

We still need a solution to this. It is not yet solved
