Convert Your Currency
Set up Order Management so it converts currency when you sell into markets that use different currencies.
Assume you sell into markets that use the USD currency and the EUR currency:
What the Numbers Mean
-
You use the Currency Rates Manager page to set the conversion rate to use between the EUR and USD currencies on 1/5/21.
-
You use the Manage Administrator Profile Values page to set the Currency Conversion Type, such as Corporate, and the Display Currency to display on the sales order, such as US Dollar.
-
At run time, Order Management uses your conversion rate to calculate the transactional value in EUR and the standardized value in USD of the order line.
