Exchange History is configured in Setup / Finance / Currency Exchange / Exchange History

Overview #

The Exchange History screen provides a read-only history of exchange-rate changes for the currencies configured under the current owner. This allows administrators to review when a rate became effective and when the rate record itself was created.

This history is useful when reviewing historical billing activity, validating when a new rate took effect, or confirming which exchange rate should have applied during a particular billing period.

Prerequisites #

Exchange history is available only after exchange rates have been created or updated for the owner’s currencies.

The Currency panel on the left lists the available currencies. Select a currency to view its exchange-rate history in the panel on the right.
