Our base currency is ZAR which is around 20:1 to the USD.

When our approval values go through, I need them to translate into our base currency.

In the following example, a PO for the following USD values:

Will have the following ZAR values:

This is how I have setup the approvals:

The above example should have gone to the >150,000 approver, but went to the <150,000 approver.  Which field should I rather use that would use the base currency instead of the PO currency?  I have tried Line Total and I think Order Total.

Approvals map wont convert the amount to base currency at present. It just uses document currency. We have an existing feature request in this regard posted on ‘ideas’ page of community portal, which is in ‘Pending review’ status. Here is the link:

Hope this clarifies.

Hi @vkumar 

Thank you, I see this has been pending review for 3 years.  How do I escalate it?  It’s not so much of a suggestion as it is a bug in my opinion, so it needs to be resolved.  Would it help if I made a similar suggestion and linked to the existing suggestion?
