Add

bool
CCurrencyRates::Add(
 array arFields
);

The method Add is used to add a new record in the exchange rate table.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
arFields	Associated array of new currency rate parameters in which keys are the parameter names and values are the parameter values. The following keys are possible: CURRENCY - the ID of currency for which a rate is added (required); DATE_RATE - the date for which the rate is being added (required); RATE_CNT - the number of currency units used to define the rate of exchange (for example, if CYP 10 equal to USD 21.58, 10 is the number of currency units) (required); RATE - the default rate of exchange. (One of currencies within a site must equal to 1. Such currency is called a base currency. Other currencies are defined relative to the base currency.)
