Error: “Cannot be added because the currency code entered is not currently being used”.

The currency label differs between the text file and the company file to be imported into and the text file must use the same currency label as specified in the company file.

If the company file has just been created and no transaction is posted:

1. Go to Setup, Settings, Company, Currency.
2. Change the Currency Codes (Standard, and Foreign if applicable) so they match the exported file.
3. Click OK to confirm the change.
4. Reimport the Chart of Accounts file.

If transactions have already been posted:

1. Go to Setup, Settings, Company, Currency 
    
2. For each currency, take note of each currency code label.
3. Close Sage 50.
4. Open the text file in Notepad.
5. For each currency not properly labeled, replace it with the proper one from step 2. You may want to use CTL+H (Find & Replace) to update the entire file. 
   
6. Save the file. 
7. Import the text file.
