Triangulation Currency and Exchange Rates
Triangulation is a method of currency exchange in which one currency amount is converted to another through an intermediate currency. As part of selecting currencies for your company, you can select a triangulation currency.
DPS uses the triangulation currency when no published exchange rate exists between two currencies and thus it is not possible to perform either a direct exchange or an inverse exchange.
For example, if your company needs to translate Belarus rubles to Suriname guilders, DPS might need to translate rubles to United States dollars, then United States dollars to guilders.
