This field displays the system (today's) date. To obtain exchange rates for another date, enter, or click to select, a date and click the Apply button.

Rate

This field displays the rate amount.

If the transaction and functional currencies are the same, no rate determination will be necessary. In this case, this field displays 1.0000000.
