Exchange Rate Mapping
The purpose of Exchange Rate map is to apply exchange rates to the transaction amounts in the source file upon allocation.
Exchange rate maps apply exchange rates configured in Indirect Tax Compliance to transaction amounts in your source file upon allocation.
Currency exchange rates from source file
Exchange rates can be pulled into Indirect Tax Compliance from source files if rates are present in the ERP system. Users do not have to create a source exchange rate or configure the exchange rates for different dates if using this method.
With this option, users can import exchange rates into OIC with their regular data import. Data for ‘Transaction Exchange Rate’ must be present in the import file along with ‘Transaction currency’ and ‘Currency’ values. These fields need to be mapped in import specification to ‘TransactionExRate’, ‘TransactionCurrency’ & ‘Currency’ fields respectively.
You must configure the ‘Exchange Rate Map’ to a source file for the relevant entities.
