| Amount

Enter the amount of the transaction line item.

| Exchange Override Rate
|
If you use the Multicurrency feature, you can use this field to override the exchange rate for a single line item.
Vision stores each transaction amount that you enter in the currency that you selected on the New File dialog box. Vision also stores the amount in the functional currency of the company that owns (via organization structure) the project, phase, or task charged for the transaction. If the transaction currency and functional currency differ, Vision uses the daily exchange rates that you establish in Configuration to calculate the amount in the functional currency. Usually, a transaction is recorded using the exchange rate in effect on the date the transaction took place, unless you specify an override in this field.
