# **SUPPLIERS**

When creating a supplier in Visma Spiris (Swedish version of Visma eAccounting), if the supplier is linked to a **foreign currency** (e.g. EUR), a **bank account configured for that same currency** in Visma Spiris must be specified on the supplier.

If no matching foreign currency bank account exists in Visma Spiris, the supplier creation will fail.

## **Resolution**

Create a foreign currency bank account for each currency you intend to use with suppliers:

1. Go to **Settings → Cash and bank accounts**
2. Click **New bank account**
3. Set the type to **Foreign currency account**
4. Select the target currency (e.g. EUR or USD)
5. Assign a ledger account

Once the account exists, the supplier creation will work as expected.
