Creating Foreign Exchange Rates

Before you can reference a foreign exchange rate on a transaction, the foreign exchange rate must be created in the Reference Data Area with Foreign Exchange Rates. Users with security rights to maintain foreign exchange rates can create a foreign exchange rate for a currency defined in the system.

To create a foreign exchange rate:

1. Press the Reference Data navigation button from any page displaying the navigation bar.
   
   The Reference Data Area displays.

2. Select Foreign Exchange Rates from the Show drop-down list.
   
   The Reference Data Area with Foreign Exchange Rates displays.

3. Press Create a Foreign Exchange Rate If you do not have security rights to maintain foreign exchange rates, this button does not appear on the page.
   
   The Foreign Exchange Rate page appears.

4. Enter exchange rate information into the page. Required information is indicated by a red asterisk (*). After you are finished entering data, press Save & Close.
   
   The new exchange rate is saved and the Reference Data Area with Foreign Exchange Rates redisplays.
