Dear Sirs,
Problem Statement: Reports convert currencies in wrong rates in case rate
changes of the different currencies in use.

Below are the reproducing steps:
1. Make the application base currency as AED (United Arab Emirates Dirhams).
2. Create a cash account in AED: name= "Cash in AED"
3. Create an income category "Salary" in EGP (Egyptian Pounds).
4. Set the conversion rate between AED and EGP as: 1 AED = 2 EGP effective  1
Jan 2017.
5. Make a deposit transaction of 1,000 AED into "Cash in AED" with category
"Salary" with entry date as 1 March 2017.
--> At this stage the application will convert 1,000 AED to 2,000 EGP.
6. Set the conversion rate to be 1 AED = 5 EGP effective 1 Oct 2017.
7. Configure the Income and Expenses Report to have the option "Convert values
to base currency" checked.
--> the report will show the deposited 1,000 AED as 400 AED despite it is
deposited into the an account with AED currency.
It took the converted 2,000 EGP and converted them into AED with the latest
rate (1 AED= 5 EGP) which is wrong because they money is still in AED and never
converted in reality. or either to consider the rate at which the transaction
was inserted which was (1 AED= 2 EGP). 

The current report gives wrong information and accordingly we can take wrong
decisions.
