exchange rate (i.e. both rates are fixed at the rate entered
for the Buying exchange rate). You typically select this option if you negotiated a fixed rate with your financial institution (i.e. you hedged against an exchange rate change for this currency). |
| Buying exchange rate | The buying exchange rates are used to convert foreign currency transactions processed in the Accounts Payable and Purchase Order modules. |
| Multiply/Divide | Select whether to multiply or divide the foreign currency by the exchange rate to determine the local currency equivalent. |
