Overrides to Exchange Rates and Dates

When you post a transaction, DPS normally uses the exchange rate in effect on the date that you enter for the transaction. However, you can use the Currency Override dialog box to specify a different exchange rate during Transaction Entry.

Use an override to account for circumstances in which the published exchange rate does not apply to a particular transaction. You can override the rate used for the full transaction, or you can override the rate used for a single transaction line item. In either case, you can specify:

• A different exchange date, in which case the rate in effect for the specified date is used, or
• A different exchange rate altogether.
