Know what to do when no rate was published on the selected date

Start with the date in the business record

Keep the invoice, payment, tax record, close file, or policy note that explains why a date matters. That date is the requested date in your business file, even if the official source did not publish a rate on that exact day.

Check whether the chosen source published that day

Some sources publish working-day observations, period rates, or another schedule. If there is no observation on the requested date, record the publication pattern instead of hiding the gap.

FXProof should not silently turn a weekend date into a different date. The proof belongs to the supported source and observation you selected.

Use the available date your rule allows

Your policy, adviser, contract, tax rule, or reviewer decides whether the previous business day, next business day, period rate, or another date is appropriate. Keep that reasoning in the workpaper or business file.

Keep the proof with the explanation

Attach the Signed FXProof Proof PDF to the record that used the selected observation. The proof keeps the source attribution, selected date, rate context, digital signature, document id, payload hash, and verification details together.

Know the boundary before you share it

FXProof documents the selected official reference input. It does not provide legal, tax, accounting, or investment advice, and it does not guarantee recipient acceptance for a missing-date decision.
