Transaction Currency to Functional Currency Exchange Rate Info

Field	Description
Rate Date	This field displays the invoice date on the Manage Journal Entries screen. Enter a date or click the calendar icon to select a different date.
Rate	This field mimics the Trans to Func field rate when non-euro currencies are used. When euro currency is used, this field displays the product of the Trans to Euro and Euro to Func fields. The fraction that displays to the right of the Trans to Func field is the value of one divided by the euro-to-transaction currency exchange rate.
Trans to Func or Trans to Euro	For those transactions that involve countries that are EC members, this field has the label Trans to Euro and displays the rate for the transaction currency-to-euro exchange. This field displays as Trans to Func if non-EC currencies are being exchanged.
N/A or Euro to Func	For those transactions that involve countries that are EC members, this field has the label Euro to Func and displays the rate for the euro-to-functional currency exchange. This field displays as N/A if non-EC currencies are being exchanged.
