Exchange Rates View

The Exchange Rates view shows all available exchange rates from a Currency to any other Currency.

Exchange Rates Features

The Exchange Rates view works against a single Currency displaying all exchange rates from that currency, or against no Currency showing all Exchange Rates period.

Exchange rates do not need to be entered for a reciprocal, the system will automatically calculate reciprocal exchange rates whenever it needs them.


Exchange Rate Properties

Exchange Rates have the following properties:

From CurrencyThe Currency this exchange rate is exchanging from
To CurrencyThe Currency this exchange rate is exchanging to
