Calculating the Exchange Rate

Sterling TMS obtains thecurrency exchange rates daily from an industry-standard currency service.The system applies the exchange rate that was in effect on the datethe shipment was rated. The system does not use the exchange ratethat is in effect on the date you are viewing the shipment.

Forexample:

1. You set your user options to view charges as Canadian Dollars.
2. A shipment is tendered and covered on 1 June. Sterling TMS applies the1 June exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Canadian dollars.
3. You select the shipment and view the Currency Rates page on 15June. Sterling TMS stilldisplays the exchange rate for 1 June because that is the date thesystem calculated the shipment charge.
