SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Manually looking up foreign exchange rates and converting currency amounts in the Alliance Business Suite is time-consuming and prone to error, especially when working with historical rates or multiple currency pairs. This Skill eliminates that friction by providing clear, step-by-step guidance for using the absuite CLI to access ForexService public reference data.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Latest and Historical Rate Lookups: Retrieve exchange rates for all supported currencies or a single currency pair, for both current and past dates.
  • Cross-Currency Amount Conversion: Convert monetary values at latest or historical rates using either v2 or v3 API versions, with distinct output formats for each version.
  • Use Case: A finance professional can quickly convert a 2026-01-15 invoice total from EUR to USD using the historical v3 exchange command, or pull the full set of latest global forex rates for a market report, all without navigating the ABS web interface.

Quick Start

Use the absuite-forex-cli skill to convert 2500 EUR to USD at the latest exchange rate or retrieve the historical EUR to GBP rate for 2026-01-15.
