Description james 2017-05-31 08:55:46 EDT

TX Account:(CAD), Vendor:(USD), Payment:(CAD)

Posting this mixed-currency bill results in the mixed-currency dialog and all works as expected.

Paying the bill results in the same mixed-currency dialog but the exchange date is set to current date - not date of payment. Since the exchange date is greyed out, there is no way to correct this error. 

Result 1: Currency list is not updated for the date of the actual payment (inconvenient)

Result 2: Currency for TODAY is updated with wrong value.

As far as I can see, this does not affect the actual values of the transaction so I don't consider this critical.
