Hello, I have two situations where converting USD to another currency is required. Have tried to use the out of box scheduled job ECB Exchange Rate Load but it does not finish correctly. By that I mean it does not update all the currencies. There is a pending problem PRB591201 and have been told this will not be fixed. Is anyone using this job and is there trick to running it? Thanks Jim

This document is offered by ECB: http://www.ecb.int/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml
The content is parsed by the import job. Unfortunataley there is no trick with the current implementation.
Cheers, Thomas

Hello Thomas, I was told by SNC support that ECB only offers the exchange rates that I see in the link. The one I need is not available so I will need to load it manually from somewhere. I was under the impression that ECB offered many more rates. We have a facility in Costa Rica. Thanks Jim.

Hi Jim, meanwhile I've added an additional import job (which completes all the currencies not provided by ECB) by using REST calls to http://www.webservicex.net/currencyconvertor.asmx/ConversionRate (HTTP/post) and/or http://apilayer.net/api/live (HTTP/get). These webservices provide about 150 exchange rates and they are free of charge. The first one has not the best availability but in combination they are ok for me. Others will charge a minor fee. SNC will NOT provide further support regarding importing exchange rates.
Cheers, Thomas
