Enhancements
New FX Rate Integration script deployment parameters
Effective Date: This will determine the effective date of the published exchange rate when the FX rate script gets the exchange rates for the selected currency.
FX Rates Manual Update - Input a value if you want to get the exchange rates for a specific effective date.
FX Rates Scheduled Update - Leave the effective date blank for scheduled updates, the script will get the latest available exchange rates before today based on Central European Time (CET).
Get Exchange Rate: You can choose between two options on which date the FX rate will be based on.
Before Effective Date - exchange rates published a day before the effective date will be used. If the day before falls on a weekend, published rates from the previous Friday will be used.
On or Before Effective Date - exchange rates published on the day or a day before the effective date will be used. If the day before falls on a weekend, published rates from the previous Friday will be used.
Currency Checkboxes (NBP, MNB, ECB) - This allows the administrator to create different script deployments for each supported currency. You can select the currencies that will use the parameters defined in the script deployment record. If all boxes are unchecked then the parameters will apply to all enabled currency exchange rate integrations in [STA] FX Rates Update Preferences.
