Triangulation Currency and Exchange Rates
Triangulation is the 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.
Vision 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, Vision might need to translate rubles to United States dollars, then United States dollars to guilders.
Specify the Triangulation Currency
You specify a triangulation currency on the Currency tab of .
If You Do Not Specify a Triangulation Currency
If Vision is unable to make a currency exchange — because there is no published exchange rate between two currencies and no triangulation currency specified — Vision displays a message to inform you that the currency exchange could not be made.
