Multiplier Rate

Enter the number (exchange rate) by which the foreign currency amount is multiplied to calculate a domestic currency amount. The system calculates the value for the field that you leave blank. That is, if you enter a multiplier rate, the system calculates the divisor rate. If you enter a divisor rate, the system calculates the multiplier rate. The rates are the inverse, or reciprocal, of each other.

Depending on the calculation method:

• For the inverse method, enter the multiplier exchange rate for the currency relationship.

• For the no inverse method, enter the multiplier exchange rate for the currency relationship if the conversion method in General Accounting Constants is Y (multiplier) or enter the divisor exchange rate if the conversion method is Z (divisor).

• For the triangulation method, enter the no inverse exchange rate for the first leg of the triangulation relationship.
