3.5. Currency rates
Tariscope provides a work with data of several telecommunications service providers which can have the rates in different currencies. In this case, all calculations are executed in the currency that is a main currency. For conversion of all used currencies to the main currency you need to enter currency rates in Tariscope. For this purpose, the Currency rates configuration page is used.
Click on the Currency rates branch in the configuration tree of Tariscope Management, the Currency rates page is opened as shown in Figure 3.5.1.
Figure 3.5.1
The configuration page contains a list of all the currencies of the world.
This page allows to execute actions that are available using the icons on the toolbar or items of a menu that appears when right click on the currency table except its header:
- Add. Provides an addition of a new currency.
- Edit. Allows to edit the currency parameters.
- Delete. Allows to delete a selected currency from the list.
- Rename. Allows to rename a selected currency.
- Set Main Currency. Allows to set a selected currency as a main one.
A currency that was selected as a main one is marked by the bold font. The Tariscope administrator can change the main currency any time. Select the required currency. To quick search, use the Search box located on the right side of the toolbar. The search is performed on all columns of the table. Next, click on the Set Main Currency icon.
In that case, when the rates are given in two or more currencies, you should set exchange rates in relation to the main currency. For example, in Ukraine, the domestic rates are specified in UAH, and rates for international calls are specified in U.S. dollars. Therefore, you must set a exchange rate of U.S. dollars to hryvnia.
To set an exchange rate, select a currency that you will need to recalculate to the main currency. Press Enter or double-click on this line, or click the Edit icon on the toolbar. The Edit window appears as shown in Figure 3.5.2.

Figure 3.5.3
In the From date box, select date of the currency rate.
In the Rate box, type the currency rate and click OK.
The line with the entered rate is displayed in the table of the Edit window (Figure 3.5.2).
If you need to correct any currency rate in the table, select the required line and click Edit. The Currency rate window appears (Figure 3.5.3). Edit a value in the Rate box and click OK.
If you need to remove any currency rate from the table, select the required line and click Remove. The line will be removed.
If you need a periodic input of the currency rates, we recommend to use the Tariscope Tasks configuration page from the Tariscope Management program, which provides automatic receiving of currency rates on a schedule. A configuration of the Tariscope Tasks service is described later.
