  2. To delete:
    • Click Delete under the account name
    • Click OK to confirm
    • You can’t delete accounts with posted transactions or opening balances
  3. To edit:
    • Click the account to open the Bank Accounts page
    • Update the details as needed
    • Use the Address & Contacts tab to add more information
    • Click Save

Foreign Currency Transactions

You can process foreign currency transactions on invoices and credit notes. Sage Accounting uses live exchange rates to convert amounts to your base currency.

To add a foreign bank account, follow the same steps as for a base currency account. Select the desired currency in the Currency field.
