You're not missing anything. Translation on the database hasn't happened at this stage so it doesn't know the translated values.
Are the users entering each side of a single journal in different currencies? For example:
DR Accounts Receivable 100 EUR
CR Sales 87 GBP
I haven't come across this use case. You would have no choice but to create the template as unbalanced as it will never balance if this is what the user is entering.
If you add a confirmation rule, I would assume that due to the fluctuation in exchange rates, you would need to also build in an acceptable threshold. In which case, that is also simply a number. But you can write code to translate on the fly in the confirmation rule.
Well, it's more like I would allow the user to input in both in Euros, or Both in GBP. In any case, it seems it doesn't balance at this stage, but would require a confirmation rule in the next workflow step, So "unbalanced" it is 🙂
Thanks !
