Start with the invoice and the rule for its date
Keep the invoice, calculation, and the policy, contract, or professional instruction that explains which date and rate belong in the record. FXProof does not choose that rule for you.
Match the record to supported ECB data
The ECB publishes euro reference rates for working days, with currencies quoted against the euro. Select the supported ECB dataset and date that match your established invoice method, then confirm that the proof bundle is ready.
Keep the signed proof beside the calculation
Attach the Signed FXProof Proof PDF to the invoice file. It keeps the ECB attribution, selected date, rate context, digital signature, document id, payload hash, and verification details together.
A manual file with an ECB link, saved page, and explanatory note can also provide evidence. FXProof makes the handoff repeatable and gives the recipient one public verification path.
Know what the proof does not decide
The ECB remains the source of the rate data. FXProof is not affiliated with or endorsed by the ECB, and the proof does not decide accounting, tax, contract, or recipient acceptance questions.

Open accounting use caseQuestions
Does FXProof choose the invoice exchange-rate date?
No. Use the date required by your policy, contract, professional instruction, or recipient. FXProof documents the supported ECB data and date you selected.
Is the signed PDF issued by the ECB?
No. The ECB publishes the underlying reference-rate data. FXProof independently issues and signs its own source-attributed proof PDF.
What should stay in the invoice file?
Keep the invoice and calculation, the reason for the date and rate choice, and the Signed FXProof Proof PDF used to support that calculation.
