This column displays the change percentage. Costpoint calculates this information by subtracting the prior rate from the current rate and dividing the result by the prior rate amount. You cannot edit this column.

If the change percentage exceeds the rate change tolerance specified on the Manage Exchange Rate Groups screen, Costpoint displays an error message and the new rate is not allowed. For example, if the fluctuation limit for this currency from/to combination is 5 percent, you cannot enter any rate that is a change (either positive or negative) of more than 5 percent. (If you edit pre-existing rows of daily rates, only the edited row is validated against the fluctuation limit.)

You can enter a note of up to 254 alphanumeric characters for the exchange rate.
