Is there any client side methods to convert one currency to another currency?

[Narayana Swamy]

Here i am facing issue of calculating currency.

Here as showing in image I typed number 

Supplier Number of Recurring's=1

Supplier RC=2 USD

after selecting Rc I selected

Supplier NRC =3 CHF

based on latest selected currency I want to convert currency i.e. USD to CHF and all the CHF value should be displayed on supplier Cost field.

output I am getting:-

see below image for output I am getting

supplier cost=(1*(2))+3 =2+3=5 CHF 

Expected output:-

calculation:-

Supplier Cost=( Supplier Number of Recurring's*Supplier RC)+(supplier NRC)

1 USD=0.85 CHF

supplier cost=(1*(2*0.85))+3 =3.4+3=6.4 CHF

Hi @Narayana Swamy 

Not sure, but I guess SN has some OOTB exchange rates tables.

Hi @Narayana Swamy, 

I am not sure if ServiceNow provides OOB currency conversion rates. 

I would suggest you to create System Properties for Currency conversion rates so that you can use those properties anywhere on your instance without configuring conversion rate again and again. If you want to change the rate, you can go to system properties and change the rate and it will apply everywhere on instance wherever it is used.

Hi @Ehab Pilloor ,

   Currency rates changes every day ,I think this method might not be suitable to handle such scenarios.How can we handle in such scenarios?

Thanks

Hi @Narayana Swamy.

While I do understand it is not the most viable solution, it is better than configuring exchange rates for a particular application as you would have to configure if again if needed in separate application. 

You can check out this ServiceNow documentation for currency exchange rates for reference to your question: https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/vancouver-platform-administration/page/administer/currency/concep...
