 ===Rates on Contract Items===
 Currency rates can be entered on fixed prices and differentials on individual contract items. This helps CATS calculate the default currency amount.
-Reviewing a contract item, enter the currency rate under **Price$**:
-Or under **Dffntl$**:
+<note tip>You can enter either a fixed currency rate **OR** use a currency position you have already added in the system. </note>
+While reviewing a contract item, choose **Price$** from the menu to change the fixed price on the contract item.

+Enter a currency code in the **''CUR''** box. Then, you can enter either a rate in the **''Rate''** box OR a currency month in the **''Mn''** and year **''Yr''** boxes. In this example, we have entered **''CAD''** and **''5''** **''19''**, which means the currency rate for CAD for position 2019-05 will be used.
