Posting Multiple Currencies - Colour Coding

QuickBooks Canada : Pro 2012

Please bring in an option to colour code accounts.   Since the multi-currency feature causes more problems than it solves, I have accounts for US$ Mastercard and CAN$ Mastercard, same for bank accounts.   One of the most common posting errors is caused by posting a credit card transaction to the wrong account.  Please either have QB remember which account purchases are posted to for every supplier, or have a pop-up asking to confirm the account.

Thank you Alexander.  This works to some degree.  There's not too many colours that one can use that are easy on the eyes.   It's a shame there is all that blank real estate to the right of the "Enter Credit Card Charges Screen".  They could use that to put a large version of the account name in the colour so it is very obvious.  I note it does put a slim coloured border around the entry.  Perhaps I will get used to that feature if I really pay attention to it, and play around with the colours a bit more.  Thanks for your reply.  It was exactly what I needed.

 

Mike
