Transaction Currency to Functional Currency Exchange Rate Info

Field	Description
Rate Date	This field displays the date used when the exchange rate was determined for the leave transaction.
Rate	This non-editable field displays the rate amount used to translate the Transaction Amount into the Functional Amount.
Trans to Func	This field can have two different meanings depending on the setup of the specified Transaction Currency. If the Transaction Currency does not exist in the Manage Currency Status table OR it does exist in that table and its Converting to Euro Currency check box is not selected, then the field is used to display the Transaction-to-Functional currency exchange rate. Otherwise (if the Transaction Currency does exist in the Manage Currency Status table and its Converting to Euro Currency check box is selected) then this field is used to display the Transaction-to-Euro exchange rate. Trans to Func: This field displays the transaction to functional exchange rate if you calculate the exchange rate for a non-Euro currency. In this circumstance, this field is labeled Trans to Func. Costpoint determines this rate using the parameters you established for records on the Multicurrency screens. If you track non-Euro exchange rates by date, this field displays a value that defaults from the Rate Amount field on the Manage Exchange Rates by Date screen. If you track non-Euro exchange rates by period, this field displays a value that defaults from the Period-Average Rate field of the Manage Exchange Rates by Period screen. Whether you track non-Euro currency exchange rates by date or period, the rate amount is retrieved based on the validity of the data in the Transaction, Rate Group, and Rate Date fields. The value displayed in the Trans to Func field is always the same as the value displayed in the Rate field. Since the value in the Rate field is non-editable, you can use the Trans to Func field to indirectly change the value in the Rate field. Trans to Euro: If you calculate the exchange rate associated with a Euro currency, Costpoint calculates the value in this field by dividing 1 by the value in the Euro-to-Currency Exchange Rate field of the Manage Currency Status screen. This field is labeled Trans to Euro. In this case, the currency displayed on the Manage Currency Status record must be consistent with the Euro currency on this screen.
N/A	This field displays 1.0000000 and is non-editable if you convert a non-Euro currency. If you convert a non-Euro currency, this field is labeled N/A. If you convert a Euro currency, you must have completed setup of the Manage Currency Status screen. In this case, this field will be labeled Euro to Func. If, for example, you track exchange rates by date and convert a Euro currency, the data in this field defaults from the value in the Rate Amount field of the Manage Exchange Rates by Date screen. In this circumstance, the Exchange Rates by Date record should be associated with the actual EUR currency. This currency should be linked to the functional currency in this record. The value defaults based on the data in the Transaction, Rate Group, and Rate Date fields. Updating the value in the Euro to Func field updates the value in the Rate field with the equivalent amount. You can edit the Euro to Func field only if you selected the Allow users to override exchange rates check box on the Configure Multicurrency Settings screen.
Freeze Rate	If this check box is selected, Costpoint has halted any activity associated with the exchange rate information referenced in this subtask. This suspension occurs after a transaction has posted.
