GL Daily Rates - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
The GL Daily Rates report provides a comprehensive listing of daily currency exchange rates defined in the Oracle EBS system. It is an essential tool for multi-currency environments, ensuring that conversion rates for foreign currency transactions are accurate, complete, and compliant with corporate treasury policies. This report serves as a primary control for verifying the rates used in currency translation and revaluation processes.
Business Use Cases
- Treasury Management: Monitors exchange rate trends and ensures that corporate rates (e.g., daily spot rates, monthly average rates) are loaded correctly into the ERP.
- Transaction Audit: Verifies the specific exchange rate applied to a transaction on a given date, which is crucial when investigating currency variances in subledgers (AP/AR).
- Missing Rate Identification: Proactively checks for missing rates between currency pairs before period-end processes (like Revaluation or Translation) fail due to undefined rates.
- Intercompany Reconciliation: Ensures consistent exchange rates are being used across different legal entities for intercompany transactions.
- Audit Trail: Provides a historical record of exchange rates for tax and statutory reporting purposes.
Technical Analysis
Core Tables
GL_DAILY_RATES: The primary table storing the actual exchange rates. It contains theFROM_CURRENCY,TO_CURRENCY,CONVERSION_DATE, andCONVERSION_RATE.GL_DAILY_CONVERSION_TYPES: Stores the definitions of rate types (e.g., ‘Corporate’, ‘Spot’, ‘User’).FND_CURRENCIES: Used to validate currency codes and retrieve precision information.
Key Joins & Logic
- Rate Retrieval: The query selects from
GL_DAILY_RATESbased on the requested date range and currency pairs. - Type Resolution: Joins to
GL_DAILY_CONVERSION_TYPESto display the user-friendly conversion type name instead of the internal code. - Inverse Rates: Depending on the configuration, the system may store rates in one direction (e.g., USD to EUR) and calculate the inverse (EUR to USD) dynamically. The report typically shows the stored rate but may need to handle inverse logic if requested.
- Date Filtering: Strictly filters by
CONVERSION_DATEto show the rates active for the specific period of interest.
Key Parameters
- From Currency: The source currency code (e.g., USD).
- To Currency: The target currency code (e.g., EUR).
- Conversion Type: The specific rate type to report on (e.g., Corporate, Spot).
- Conversion Date From/To: The date range for the report.
Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library
We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
