BASE CURRENCY

One currency keeps the wider financial picture consistent.

Accounts and transactions can remain in their original currencies while MoniTrak uses your base currency for consolidated summaries, reporting and planning.

FOREIGN-CURRENCY ACTIVITY

Convert activity using the configured FX rate.

When a transaction uses another currency, MoniTrak keeps the original amount and also calculates its value in your selected base currency.

TWO FX BEHAVIORS

Transactions and account balances use FX differently.

Historical transactions keep the exchange rate used when they were recorded, while a foreign-currency account can show its current base-currency equivalent using the latest configured rate.

Changing the default USD rate later does not rewrite this transaction's historical base-currency value.

The native USD 10,000 balance stays unchanged, while its AED equivalent can update when the configured FX rate changes.
