Setting Up Multiple Exchange Rates for a Single Currency

Access the Currency Exchange Rates Speed Revisions form.

Exchange Rate Multiplier/Leg 1

Exchange Rate Divisor/Leg 2

You can use the Exchange Rate Multiplier/Leg 1 and Exchange Rate Divisor/Leg 2 fields for all calculation methods and, therefore, the names of the fields are all encompassing. Depending on the values in the Conversion Method and Calculation Method fields, one or both of these fields are input capable.

The system copies the to currency code and, if applicable, the contract (address) to the header area of the Currency Exchange Rates Speed Revisions form. The system displays the most current exchange rates that are on or before the effective date.

If the calculation method is 1 (inverse) and the conversion method is Y (multiplier), enter the new rate in the Exchange Rate Multiplier/Leg 1 field. If the conversion method is Z (divisor), enter the new rate in the Exchange Rate Divisor/Leg 2 field. The system calculates the opposite rate for the field that you leave blank when you click OK or tab to the next row.

If the calculation method is 3 (triangulation) and the conversion method is Y or Z, enter the foreign-to-triangulation currency rate in the Exchange Rate Multiplier/Leg 1 field and the triangulation-to-domestic currency rate in the Exchange Rate Divisor/Leg 2 field.
