    Automatically converting non GBP payments into GBP amounts.

    Hi there,
    I have some sales records that contain GBP payments, along with AUR, USD and EUR.
    The GBP payments are not a problem, but a formula which could automatically convert AUR, USD and EUR into GBP payments would save a lot of time and reduce any chance of errors.
    I have attached an example of the current layout.

    Ultimately, I would like to put the sale in it's GBP amount where the boxes are blank & then a formula that detects either
    A) If Original currency (the F column) is not GBP, then multiply the amount in the C column by whatever the exchange rate is in the G column.
    B) If the exchange rate column G, has anything other than N/A, then multiply this by the amount in column C.

    So, if the original currency in column F is in GBP, then I can enter data into the C column, and it will not change, however if the original currency in column F is not GBP, I would like the data in column C to change.

    I appreciate that this may be a confusing explanantion, please let me know if it is unclear and I will try explain it again.
    Thanks in advance.

    Re: Automatically converting non GBP payments into GBP amounts.

    why not just muliply all the amounts by a currency lookup
    so if GBP then its 1

    i got confused on where you are entering the amounts

    can you choose a cell to enter the original value and then the drop down in the currency type and do the calculation
    or if you want to change the value entered into a cell, in the same cell - you will need VBA - not my expertise

    Sorry for the late reply,
    Your first solution both makes the most sense, and is easy to apply.
    Thanks for your help
