RE: Getting currency converion data.

Cor, that's what I was thinking, if I made it an auto job to just get
the rates into our files daily instead of at report time.

One tip: You will have to choose a certain period in time at which you
take the rate, that is one thing you will have to do, and then choose
which market you are going to retrieve your rates from (rates will vary
over the world).

There will be (web)services out there which will return to you the
rates, but what the costs are for such services I don't know.

Success,

Cor

HI I have a report that shows sales to international. I would like to
be
able to go out and get the conversion rates from an RSS or another
method from one of the currency conversion sites. Or it could be done
as
a daily job, simply getting the rates, and adding to a File on the
Iseries.



If someone has done this and can comment or any ideas on how to
accomplish would be most appreciated.



Thank you,

Phil
