    Field Description
    Rate Code

    Enter a code to identify the rate you are defining. You can associate several currencies to the rate code and specify rates for each currency. While processing a contract, you need to indicate this code to make the rate applicable to the contract. The code cannot exceed 10 characters.

    Description

    Enter a brief description to identify the rate code being defined.

    Holiday Currency

    Specify the holiday currency for this rate code. You can choose the appropriate one from the adjoining option list that displays all valid currency codes maintained in the system.

    Floating rates prevalent in the market are recorded in the system as rate codes (E.g. LIBOR). The prevailing rates in the market are also recorded in the system. These rates are defined in a certain market (E.g. LIBOR rates comes from the London market). Hence the days on which that market is closed is determined by the holidays maintained for the related currency (GBP for LIBOR). This currency must be recorded as the ‘Holiday Currency’ for the Rate code.

    Propagate Across Branches

    Check this option to indicate that the rate code should be available across all branches.
