Compliance check for exchange rate fails on subsequent lines

[AntonFarenyk]

Hello,

We set up compliance check on exchange rates, say 5%. Business requirement is “not allow to submit” expense reports with lines over the limit. This check fails in CFTE when following scenario occurs: traveler creates first line and specifies own exchange rate exceeding the limit. For this line compliance check works and red alert is displayed. Traveler then creates second line. CFTE picks up traveler’s own rate from first line as “original rate” and do not perform the compliance check against rate set in Cloud system (imported from SAP ERP in our case). Traveler than could simply delete the first line and submit the report with a line containing his own rate exceeding allowed difference. There is no indication for subsequent processors (whether it’s auditor or approver) that exchange rate used in not compliant with company’s policy.

I’m wondering if anybody faces the same issue or it’s just us.

Thanks for your help!
