## TL;DR

Finance needs to see how each foreign amount became the home-currency total. For every foreign line, attach the rate evidence (card statement rate, exchange receipt), note the rate date, and resubmit; documented conversions pass review.

## Error

```text
multi-currency expense failed finance review
```

## Steps

1. Read the reviewer's comments to see which lines were questioned. Expected: the specific conversions under scrutiny are named.
2. For each questioned line, gather the rate evidence: the card statement showing the posted rate, or the exchange receipt for cash. Expected: one evidence item per line.
3. Verify the rate date matches the transaction date (not the report date). Expected: the dates align.
4. Attach the evidence to each line and add a comment stating the rate and source. Expected: every conversion is documented inline.
5. Resubmit for review. Expected: finance approves with the documentation in place.

## When to use

- Finance review rejects or questions multi-currency expenses.
- The reviewer asks "what rate did you use" on specific lines.

## When not to use

- The converted total is mathematically wrong (see the FX rate skill).
- The expense is single-currency (different issue).

## Tool compatibility

- Expensify, Concur, and multi-currency expense tools; card statements as evidence.

## Variant phrasings

### Foreign expense needs rate documentation

The reviewer-request phrasing of the same need.

### Currency conversion not supported by evidence

The formal rejection wording.

## Why it happens

Finance must book the home-currency amount with auditable support. An undocumented conversion is unauditable, so reviewers bounce it until the rate evidence is attached.
