Optional Arguments
The following are not required to build an FX formula but may be included to refine the output. If you do not define these arguments, the formula can still be created and will point to the most recent daily FX rate.
Date (Historical FX Rate)
When this argument is used in an FX formula it will return the daily FX from that date. It can also be used in conjunction with the 4th argument to pull an average FX rate.
This argument accepts most date formats. We do not recommend using time based Excel functions like TODAY() or NOW() for this argument because these will cause Tegus Formulas to constantly recalculate. This will clear undo history for all workbooks you’re working on and can make Excel run slower.
End Date (Average FX Rate)
The 4th argument can be used in conjunction with the 3rd argument to define an average FX rate from a historical date range. You must also define the 3rd augment (Date) to pull an average FX rate.
This argument accepts most date formats. We do not recommend using time based Excel functions like TODAY() or NOW() for this argument because these will cause Tegus Formulas to constantly recalculate. This will clear undo history for all workbooks you’re working on and can make Excel run slower.
