Automatic Currency Conversion for Noncatalog Learning Requests

Summary:

We have a requirement in Oracle Learning where Noncatalog Learning Requests may be submitted by employees across different countries and currencies. The cost entered on the request will be used to determine the applicable approval workflow based on defined cost thresholds.

Since the approval thresholds are intended to be applied globally, we are looking for a way to automatically convert the cost entered by the employee in their local currency to USD, rather than requiring employees to perform the conversion manually.

Hi All,

We are exploring whether this can be achieved through a defaulting DFF on the Noncatalog Learning Request, where the USD equivalent could be automatically derived based on the cost and currency entered by the employee. The objective is to avoid requiring employees to manually convert their training costs to USD, as manual conversion could introduce errors and potentially result in the request being routed through an incorrect approval threshold.
