add exchange rate into expense app

[WeiMingLeong]

Hi all,

i would like to ask what is the best way to do this for both sharepoint list and in powerapp for Expense Application.

Our default currency is Singapore Dollars.

I have 1 Currency exchange rate List that have few different currency.
In the list there are column such as the table.

Date of exchange rate (Single line Text)	USD Rate (Number)	Yen Rate (Number)	MYR Rate (number
18/10/2022	0.02413	0.00957	0.30185
19/10/2022	0.02411	0.00953	0.30133

i am trying to add exchange rate into the expense app.
When an employee select the Currency option  and enter the cost of the receipt, i would like to have the powerapp to calculate exchange rate amount base on the currency option selected, the receipt date, and the Currency exchange rate list.

Hi @WeiMingLeong ,

This should product the result as the Default of your Exchange Rate Amount box

With(
   {
      wRate:
      LookUp(
         YourExchangeList,
         'Date of Exchange Rate' = YourReceiptDatePicker.SelectedDate
      )
   },
   Value(YourAmountBox.Text) * 
   Switch(
      YourCurrencyDD.Selected.Value,
      "USD",
      wRate.'USD Rate',
      "YEN",
      wRate.'Yen Rate',
      "MYR",
      wRate.'MYR Rate'
   )
)
