Exchange Rates
Note: This service replaces the exchange rates features for the deprecated service Currency & Exchange Rates.
Exchange Rates
Maintains the exchange rates for:
- The tenant
- The business unit
- Gets inherited exchange rates from the tenant if not overridden/specified for the business unit.
Note! When exporting to PubSub or requesting data from API, the output is calculated for each business unit. So subscribers don’t have to handle/calculate the global exchange rates.
Exchange rate types
The exchange rates are maintained for each type:
- SALES
- The exchange rate to be used for sales.
- PURCHASE
- The exchange rate to be used for purchases from suppliers.
- INTERCOMPANY
- The exchange rate used for intercompany actions, like purchasing from one business unit to another.
Import exchange rates from European Central Bank
Import of exchange rates from the European Central Bank (ECB) is now supported:
- ECB contains exchange rates for all European currencies and major currencies across the world.
- If importing exchange rates, the tenants/business units can set a markup, to ensure some margin to the standard exchange rates provided by the European Central Bank.
