[GNC] Split transaction on invoices in foreign currencies

[Antonio Roberts]

I'm in the UK doing most of my accounting in GBP (£) but in this case
I invoiced someone in EUR (€). Following the advice from here I sent
up a Bank in EUR, invoiced them in EUR and then transferred the EUR
into my GBP Bank with the current exchange rate (my bank supplies the
rate at the time of transaction).

However, this conversion incurred a bank charge in GBP. In GNUcash
I've gone to my GBP Bank balance to the transaction line to split it
to deduct the bank transfer. When I do this it's asking me to do a
currency conversion from EUR to GBP.

The funds are already in the GBP bank so why am I being asked to do
conversion again? Is there something I've done wrong?
