Exchange Rates ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ indexterm:[acquisitions,exchange rates] Exchange rates define the rate of exchange between currencies. Evergreen will automatically calculate exchange rates for purchases. Evergreen assumes that the currency of the purchasing fund is identical to the currency of the provider, but it provides for two unique situations: If the currency of the fund that is used for the purchase is different from the currency of the provider as listed in the provider profile, then Evergreen will use the exchange rate to calculate the price of the item in the currency of the fund and debit the fund accordingly. When money is transferred between funds that use different currency types, Evergreen will automatically use the exchange rate to convert the money to the currency of the receiving fund. During such transfers, however, staff can override the automatic conversion by providing an explicit amount to credit to the receiving fund. Create an exchange rate ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ . To create a new exchange rate, click _Admin -> Server Administration -> Acquisitions -> Exchange Rates_. . Click New Exchange Rate. .

As an example, if you need to import the PO Name, you could set up an attribute definition by adding an XPath similar to: + ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ code => purchase_order xpath => //*[@tag="962"]/*[@code="p"] Is Identifier => false ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ + where 962 is the holdings tag and p is the subfield that contains the PO Name. . You may have entered a holdings tag when you created the provider profile. You can also enter holdings subfields. Holdings subfields allow you to specify subfields within the holdings tag to which your vendor adds holdings information, such as quantity ordered, fund, and estimated price. . Click invoices to access invoices associated with a provider. Edit a provider ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Edit a provider just as you would edit a currency type. You can delete providers only if no purchase orders have been assigned to them.
