Exchange Rates Subtask

If you enter and maintain transaction currency information on the Exchange Rates subtask of the Manage Sales Orders screen, use this subtask to view the exchange rate information between the assigned transaction currency (for example, for customer sales orders) and your organization's functional (base) currency for financial reporting.
