Currency

These processing options specify information about the tolerance percentage, the currency code for as if amounts, and the as of date for processing the exchange rate for as if amounts.

1. Tolerance Limit

Specify a tolerance limit for multicurrency orders. Use this to ensure that the currency amount does not fluctuate greater than the tolerance percentage as compared with the Currency Exchange Rates table (F0015). If you enter an option in the F0015 table to allow spot rates, you can manually enter or override an exchange rate during order entry. If the currency rate that you enter is outside this tolerance limit, the system issues a warning.

2. Currency Code

Enter the currency code in which the system displays transactions.

You can view domestic or foreign amounts in a currency other than the currency in which the amounts were originally entered. Values are:

Blank: Display as if amounts in the currency in which they were originally entered. As if currency amounts are stored in temporary memory, and are not written to a table.

1: Display as if currency rates.

3. "As Of" Date

Specify an as of date for the as if Currency Code processing option. The system uses this date to retrieve the exchange rate from the F0015 table. If you specify a currency code in the Currency Code processing option and leave this processing option blank, the system uses the system date. A valid exchange rate between the domestic or foreign currency and the as if currency must exist in the F0015 table, based on the as of date.
