A treasury or financial manager can record the actual agreement with the bank. The Forex type field can be used to differentiate between trade-related Forex Contracts and other types.

 

To add a new Forex contract, select the New button from the App bar.

A New Forex contract screen opens.

Note: On this screen the same logic is applied as when using currency pairs.

 

Fill in the mandatory fields and select Save.
A new Forex contract is created and will appear at the top of the Forex contracts list on the Forex contracts screen.

 

Notes:

A currency pair must exist in Master data for Agiblocks to do an automatic calculation of values.  If for example you are creating a Forex record for a GBP to CHF contract, that currency pair must exist in Master data.

If the pair does not exist, then Agiblocks cannot do an automatic value calculation and the amount fields must be filled in manually.
