Definition

Exchange rate type you want to use for translating payment amounts from foreign currency to local currency.

Use

To translate payment amounts from foreign currency to local currency during a payment run, the program uses the exchange rates for the rate type you specify here. If you do not specify a rate type, it uses the the average rate (rate type M).

Procedure

If you do not want to translate payment amounts using the average rate, enter the required rate type here.

Dependencies

You can only use rate types other than type M if the conversion factors (1:1, 100:1, 1:1000 etc.) for this rate type match the factors for rate type M for all currencies.

Keep in mind that you must maintain the exchange rates for the specified rate type for all payment currencies.

Examples

If you know which exchange rates the bank uses in advance, you can enter them in the system under a special rate type. This will allow the payment program to post exact exchange rate differences. Otherwise new rate differences may occur when clearing incoming/outgoing payment clearing accounts against the bank account.
