Add a reporting currency
Add a currency to your organization's exchange-rate feeds and read the latest rate snapshot from the Currencies & exchange rates settings page.
Use this guide to add a reporting currency your organization does not track yet. Adding a currency from the Currencies & exchange rates page creates an exchange-rate feed for the currency pair. Token prices, NAV reporting, and portfolio views can then resolve values into the new currency.
This is an administrator task. You need an organisation admin or system manager role to open the page and add currencies.
Before you start
Confirm these are true for the active organisation before you add a currency:
- Your organisation has a deployed system. Exchange-rate feeds are created on-chain, so the page can only add currencies once the feed infrastructure exists.
- The currency you want is one the configured exchange-rate provider can serve. The picker is scoped to the provider's supported list. When the provider snapshot is still loading, the picker falls back to the full ISO 4217 list, and a currency the provider cannot serve is rejected when you save.
- You understand that adding a currency is permanent. DALP does not remove a currency's on-chain feed once created, because historical valuations, NAV reporting, and portfolio views may already depend on that feed.
Add a currency
Open the Currencies & exchange rates page
In the console, go to Organisation settings > Exchange rates. The page shows two sections: Target currencies, where you manage the currencies your organisation tracks, and Latest rates, a read-only snapshot of recorded rates.
Review the enabled currencies
The Target currencies section lists every currency already enabled for the organisation. The base currency is marked as the default. You cannot add a currency that is already enabled, and you cannot remove one that is listed.
Pick the currencies to add
Use the Add currencies picker to select one or more currencies. Only currencies that are not already enabled appear in the list.
Save the additions
Choose Save additions. DALP creates an issuer-signed exchange-rate feed for each new currency pair against your base currency. A newly added currency can appear before its first rate is ready, because the recurring refresh cycle publishes values after the feed is created on-chain.
Read the latest rates
The Latest rates section is a read-only snapshot of the rates the scheduled refresh recorded. You do not edit rates here; values come from the exchange-rate refresh cycle that updates the on-chain FX feeds.
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Currency pair | The base and quote currency for the rate. |
| Exchange rate | The most recent rate the refresh cycle wrote for that pair. |
| Last updated | When the recorded value was last refreshed. |
| Status | Whether the recorded value is fresh, stale, or has no recorded value yet. |
A newly added currency shows no rate until the refresh cycle publishes its first value. If a pair shows a stale status, the recorded value is older than the expected refresh window; check the feed and provider configuration for that pair.
What you cannot do here
| Limit | What it means |
|---|---|
| No currency removal | Enabled currencies stay enabled. Their feeds are registered on-chain and may already back historical reporting, so they are not removed. |
| Provider-supported only | You can only add a currency the configured exchange-rate provider can serve. Unsupported codes are rejected on save. |
| Rates are read-only | The rate table reflects the scheduled refresh. You do not publish or edit rates from this page. |
| System must be ready | Adding a currency requires a deployed system with feed infrastructure in place. Add currencies after setup, not before. |
