The exchange rates for the different currencies are used when you calculate an affiliates’s rate and their rate table is created in a different currency.
In this case, the system translates the affiliates’s price into your home currency.
Example:
An user of LimouRATE located in the USA (USD) calculates the rate for a trip in Paris, France (EUR).
The rate table of the affiliate in France was created in EUR, his home currency.
The rate for the requested trip is 100.00 EUR.
The LimouRATE of the US user converts this rate into USD on the basis of the stored exchange rate.
In this example: 1 USD = 0.92 EUR.
The rate for the requested trip in USD is 108.70 USD
