Currency Converter

The Currency Converter offers Inntopia users a way to manually change the currency exchange rates for items sold in the Inntopia CRS and their online sales channels. This feature can be useful if you need to set a customized exchange rate for a particular date range.

  • Manually set currency exchange rates override the system default OANDA exchange rates.
  • If items are added to an itinerary, the exchange rate that applies is the rate valid on the date the item was added.
  • Modifications to the itinerary use the original exchange rate.
  • Customized exchange rates affect item price but do not change the default currency set at the company level.
  • Only one customized exchange rate can be in effect for a specific date range.
