You can maintain exchange rates for a currency pair, the rates at which you buy and sell one currency for another. A bank determines its buy and sell rate for a currency pair by applying a spread (that is, its profit margin) to the mid-rate of the currency pair. Mid rate is the basic rate at which a currency pair is exchanged.
The spread applied for a currency pair varies with the transaction type, while the mid-rate usually remains constant. Consequently, different rates are applicable to different transaction types. For instance dollars in currency are purchased at a certain rate, while USD traveller’s checks are bought at a different rate. You can define a rate type which you would like to associate with a transaction type example: CASH, TRAVCHKS, and so on.
You can define the mid-rate, buy and sell spread applicable to each rate type; the buy and sell exchange rates are computed by the system. Buy rates and sell rates can either be maintained by individual branches or can be input by the HO and propagated to all the branches.
If the branch for which the rate is being uploaded or maintained is the head office branch, then the rate would be copied to all those branches that have the same country code as the head office branch.
If the branch for which the rate is being uploaded or maintained is not the head office branch, but it has the same country code as the head office branch, then the rate being uploaded or maintained would be specific to the branch and would not be copied to any other branch.
If the branch for which the rate is being uploaded or maintained is not the head office branch and also does not have the same country code as the head office branch, then the rate being maintained would be copied to all the branches that has the same country code linked as the branch for which the rate is being maintained or uploaded.
Currency Exchange Rate Summary
The summary screen provides a list of configured currency exchange rates. You can configure a currency exchange rate using theCurrency Exchange Rate Maintenance.
You can configure a yearly list of holidays, for the currencies, defined in the currency screen.

If yes, the system displays a message stating and ask the user for an override.
For any schedule or contract maturing at a future date, five years hence, you can input the future date, only if the calendar for that year is maintained. The currency holiday is maintained at the bank level by the Head Office.
Currency Holiday Master Summary
The summary screen provides a list of configured currency holiday. You can configure a currency holiday using theCurrency Holiday Master Maintenance.
In the foreign exchange markets, the exchange rates for some currency pairs such as the USD-GBP or USD-JPY are easily obtainable, since these are frequently traded. The exchange rates of other currencies such as the ZAR-INR (South African Rand - Indian Rupee), which is not traded very often, is determined through a third currency. The third currency is usually the US dollar, since the US dollar is quoted in all trading centres.
You can define the static attributes of currency pairs for which a regular market quote is readily available. For other pairs, which do not have a regular market quote, you need to specify the third currency through which the system should compute the exchange rate. The currency pair is maintained at the bank level by the Head Office branch.
In the Create Currency Pair Definition screen, provide the required details:
Currency 1-2: Click Search to view and select the required currency. A currency pair (specified as currency 1 and currency 2, in the currency pair) represents the two currencies for which you need to maintain exchange rates.
To specify the pair, choose from the list provided against Currency 1. Select the pair for which you want to maintain parameters. The pair must be selected according to the quotation method followed by the market, which can be direct or indirect. Exchange rates can be defined for currency 1 against currency 2 or currency 2 against currency 1.

Indirect method the exchange rate for the currency pair is quoted as follows:
Buy rate = mid rate + buy spread
Sell rate = mid rate - sell spread
Ccy 2 = Rate x Ccy 1
Spread Definition: Select one spread definition. The effective spread can be calculated using any of the following two methods:
Percentage: Spread/100 x mid rate
Points: Spread x points multiplier
The method of spread definition that you specify applies to two instances:
While maintaining exchange rates for the currency pair
While maintaining customer spread for the currency pair
