			=== How applying of customer or supplier payments affect the exchange rates records ===
			It is important to take note that if an advance payment is received from a customer or paid to a supplier and the currency of the invoices are in foreign currency, the exchange gain or loss will be recognized when the payment is applied and '''NOT''' when the payment is received or paid. And the exchange gain or loss will be created automatically by the system as a journal entry and it will be reference to the corresponding invoice with a remark "Sales Invoice nnnn" where nnnn is the transaction number of the corresponding invoice.

			The logic your system employs—recording foreign exchange gain or loss only when a payment is applied against an invoice—is consistent with standard accounting practices. Here's why:
