# Receipt Allocation Currency Hold

Hold invoice-payment comparisons when currency or conversion evidence differs.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
Payment/invoice IDs, native currencies, authorized settlement rates and customer linkage.

## Workflow
1. Preserve native amounts and settlement date.
2. Use an approved conversion only for the named comparison.
3. Separate exchange difference from unapplied customer cash.
4. Return held comparisons and arithmetic; no rate selection, allocation or journal.

## Output contract
receipt/invoice | currencies | approved rate/date | comparable value | residual | held reason

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional 100 EUR at approved 1.1 USD/EUR is 110 USD against invoice 110 USD. Without that rate, no zero residual is claimed.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
