Override the Exchange Rate for an Entire Expense Report

If you use the Multicurrency feature, you can override the currency type, date, or rate used on your expense report.

Each time that a transaction is posted, Vision stores its value in the transaction currency and in multiple other currencies used for billing and reporting. Vision also stores the amount in the functional currency of the company that owns the project, phase, or task charged for the transaction. If the transaction currency and functional currency differ, Vision uses the daily exchange rates 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.

To override the exchange rate for an entire expense report, complete the following steps :

1. Open the expense report.
2. Click Currency on the Expense Report toolbar to display the Currency Override dialog box.
3. From the Transaction Currency drop-down list, select the currency for this expense report.
4. From the Exchange Override > Method drop-down list, select one of these settings:

   Option	Description
   Date	Use the corresponding Date field to specify the date you want to use in place of the transaction date.
   Rate	Use the corresponding Rate field to specify the rate you want to use in place of the currency exchange rate set up in Configuration.

5. Click OK.
