Companies who works with a double ledger : one statutory in EUR (= accounting currency) , one IFRS in USD (= reporting currency).
Their mandatory need is to be able to obtain, in real time, a direct valuation in their reporting currency (USD) of all their inputs entered in transaction currency (whichever it might be).
Example : If the transaction currency is GBP, the accounting currency is EUR and the reporting currency is USD, we need to convert GBP to EUR and GBP to USD.
Of course, all foreign currency revaluation processes (customer, vendor and general ledger modules) have to follow the same rule of accounting.

I totally agree with Lise, it is absolutely incredible that this feature is not already offered in Dynamics 365 and even on the 2012!

This lack of functionality is likely to stop customer's acceptance to implement Dynamics 365 for their business use if they identify it, even once the project has started...
SAP competitor offers this set up as a standard.
So it is important to develop it ASAP in Dynamics 365 !

We released this feature as part of the functionality in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations version 8.1. The functionality, referred to as Dual currency, changed how the reporting currency amount is calculated. The system now calcculates the reporting currency directly from the transaction currency. Various subledgers were also updated to track reporting currency amounts.
Please refer to the following link for more information:
