Currency Rate generator

Last modified: April 3, 2025

The Currency Rate generator creates simulated exchange rates between different currencies. These rates reflect the value of one currency in relation to another, for example, how many units of one currency are equal to one unit of another currency. The generator can produce realistic, random, or specific exchange rates based on predefined parameters, and is commonly used in testing, development, or simulation scenarios that involve financial applications, currency conversion, or analytics.

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific
Currency Rate	1.9055, 0.197, 0.5628, …	decimalmoney	Default

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column that matches any of the following rules:

The column name starts with ‘Currency’ and ends with ‘Rate’, with any or no characters in between, regardless of the table name.
The column name contains ‘Rate’, with any or no characters before or after, and it belongs to a table whose name contains ‘Currency’, preceded or followed by any or no characters.
