The exchange rate can be quoted in the following forms:

• 2.50000 (direct quotation, 1 USD = 2.5 UNI)


• /0.40000 (indirect quotation, 1 UNI = 0.4 USD)

The quotation that is used is defined in Customizing for each currencypair. All exchange rates in the conversion tables must be defined forthe notation specified for the respective currency pair.
