AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, it seems that NetSuite does not allow you to directly pay a vendor bill in a different currency from the bill's currency or the subsidiary's base currency. However, there are a few workarounds that you can consider: 1. Use a Clearing Account: You can pay the bill using a clearing account. After that, you can make a bank transfer from the clearing account to the USD bank account. 2. Create a Sub-Account: You can create a sub-account of the USD bank account denominated in the vendor's currency (CAD in this case), and pay from that. Then transfer the amount at the relevant exchange rate out of the USD account. 3. Intercompany Journal: When a payment is made on behalf of the other entity, you can have a NetSuite GL bank account that makes the "payment". In the background, you can have a script that then creates the Intercompany journal. 4. Journal Entry to Cancel Vendor Prepayment: If you have a vendor prepayment in a different currency that you can't apply to the bill, you can create a Journal Entry to cancel the Vendor Prepayment when you have the bill and recreate the Vendor Prepayment with the correct currency. Please note that these are workarounds and may not be the most efficient way to handle this situation. It's always best to consult with a NetSuite professional or a financial advisor to ensure that these methods comply with your company's financial policies and procedures. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
