		+	Whether you are part of the International Business community or perform your business on a Local or National level it's possible that you will at some point deal with transactions that involve Foreign Currency.
		+
		+	By using the Foreign Exchange Rates window in ERP you are able to define the rates for Purchase and Sales transactions for each Currency and/or Country and also define a Hedging Formula. There is a default list of all major foreign currencies already in ERP and you are able to enter as many more as you wish.

		+	Exchange Rate Note:
		+
		+	In ERP we record two foreign exchange rates, a buy rate and a sell rate these are used as follows:
		+
		+	'''Sell Rate''' - This is the rate that the bank will "sell" a foreign currency to us. This is used in foreign purchase orders as we have to buy the currency from the bank to pay the foreign supplier.
		+
		+	'''Buy Rate''' - This is the rate that the bank will "buy" a foreign currency from us. This is used in foreign sales as we have to sell the foreign currency we have been paid in to the bank.
		+
		+	To create a Foreign Exchange Rate that is not already in the Exchange Rate List, follow the steps below:
