Use this parameter to define how the currency exchange rate is identified, when the payment goes through several steps.

This parameter can be set to No or Yes.

  • No: The payment exchange rate is only determined during the second posting step (the exchange rate for the first posting step is set by the payment transaction setup). For the next validations, carried out at a later date (when and if the exchange rate is changed), the rate used in the first posting step is kept.  
  • Yes: The payment exchange rate is determined at each posting step based on the payment transaction setup. If a payment contains several validation steps before the bank posting phase, the exchange rate is determined at each new posting date. When the matching process is performed, the exchange rate variance entry is then created.
