I'm trying to import opening journal entries into Odoo, and my company currency is CHF. However, some of the accounts in my chart of accounts are configured in other currencies (e.g. EUR, PLN).

My journal entries are already in CHF, but for foreign currency accounts, I understand I need to include the "Amount in Currency" and the correct currency code.

The issue is:

When mapping my import file, I don't see a clear field name in Odoo for "Amount in Currency." I tried matching it manually, but Odoo doesn't seem to recognize it or link it correctly. I assume the technical field is amount_currency, but it’s not always available in the import interface.


There is always this error:  The account selected on your journal entry forces to provide a secondary currency. You should remove the secondary currency on the account. at multiple rows


This is how my import file looks like:

Same error on display even when I have this field

when I delate the currency in these accounts it will not book in correct currency I put in the data, but in main currency of the company.

maybe there is something wrong with how my data looks like? example:

Number Date Reference Journal Journal Items/Account Journal Items/Credit Journal Items/Debit Currency Journal Items/Amount in Currency
3361 10.1.2025 Auction 11552777 INV 1411 20.91 HUF -9,146.00
2214 20.91 9,146.00
