6.3.9.3.6.3.4 Source of Currency and Exchange Rate Information
Oracle Funds Transfer Pricing sources currency and exchange rate information from Rate Management > Currency and Currency Rates screens. Ledger migration should only be performed for currencies that are activated or enabled.
Calculation of Functional Currency Values:
To calculate and write charge/credit values expressed in functional currency to the Management Ledger table, a situation in multi-currency implementations, follow these steps:
- Choose between entered or functional Ledger Migration while defining the Transfer Pricing Process.
- Derive charge/credit amounts in the entered or local currency first, using Transfer Rate and balance information expressed in those currencies, and then convert the calculated charge/credit values for the “As-of-Date” to the functional currency.
- Assume the last date associated with the “As-of-Date” as the basis for Ledger Migration, and use currency exchange rates corresponding to that date to perform conversions to functional currency for charges and credits written to the Management Ledger table.
- Use the following algorithm for Exchange Rate Access:
- If the exchange rate exists, use the rate for the last day of the period being processed.
- If no exchange rate exists for the last day of the period being processed, use the latest exchange rate available in the rates table for the period being processed.
- If no exchange rate exists for the period being processed, use an exchange rate value of 1.
