Floatrates.com, no updated currency exchange rates

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

It seems that the feeds from Floatrates.com, which could be used in connection with NAV/BC, hasn't been updated the last couple of days. For example, the USD feed (http://www.floatrates.com/daily/usd.xml), was last updated February 27.

Is it anyone who has more information about this? When trying to contact their support, I just got an error message that my case couldn't be sent to them. There is no other contact details on the web site either.

Otherwise, is it anybody who has any advice for substitute to Floatrates.com?

Thanks in advance

Best Regards
Johannes Lunner

    Hello,

    Experiencing the same issue, which seems to be the case for nearly all companies using Business Central and a currency exchange rates job. Microsoft's own documentation points everyone Floatrates. I get the same response when trying to submit a support request,

    Perhaps this company has gone dark. In any event does anyone have a substitute for this service?

    Kind Regards,

    Geoffrey Wixom

    Hi

    I just found www.rba.gov.au/.../exchange-rates.html  or www.rba.gov.au/.../rss-cb-exchange-rates.xml but I did not have time to test it or see if even works

    I was looking into the DNS record, but it was not given me any contact information.

    SLA is the poor with free service.

    Soo looking forward for alternative solutions.

    Hi, maybe the following site will help. It will be a bit troublesome when dealing with field mapping

    https://www.fxexchangerate.com/

    For example: Chinese Yuan(CNY)
