# presentation_rate.record

## What it does

Freeze one exact, human-approved presentation-currency rate, optionally verified against a dated shared-store observation.

## Before you send it

Requires an interactive OAuth connection; headless credentials are refused. Effective membership, application grant and token permissions still apply. Describe `presentation_rate.record` through `GET /v1/catalog/commands/{name}` before acting.

The envelope may reference a registered source document of kind `source_document`; this is separate from any evidence required by the input.

## Inputs

Put these fields inside the envelope's `input` object. The outer envelope names the command, a stable `idempotency_key` and `effective_at`; [request and recovery rules](/docs/api/) explain those separately. Use exact minor-unit integer strings for monetary fields. Take existing IDs from prior reads or command results; choose a new identity only where the command asks for one.

Required means required within its containing object; an optional parent can be omitted.

| Field | Type | Required | Meaning and accepted values |
|---|---|---|---|
| `packageId` | string | Yes |  Example: `"ch-co-ordinary-standalone-ag-gmbh-software-services-2026.1"`. |
| `baseCurrency` | string | Yes |  Example: `"USD"`. |
| `quoteCurrency` | string | Yes |  Example: `"CHF"`. |
| `numerator` | string | Yes |  Maximum length: `38`. Pattern: `"^[1-9][0-9]*$"`. Example: `"4"`. |
| `denominator` | string | Yes |  Maximum length: `38`. Pattern: `"^[1-9][0-9]*$"`. Example: `"5"`. |
| `observedAt` | string | Yes |  Example: `"2026-09-30T23:59:59.999Z"`. |
| `source` | string | Yes |  Must be `"manual_evidenced"`. Example: `"manual_evidenced"`. |
| `approvedRate` | object | No | Copy the complete rate returned by fx_rate that the human reviewed. Required with lookupDate; provenance changes require review again.  |
| `approvedRate.base` | string | Yes |   |
| `approvedRate.quote` | string | Yes |   |
| `approvedRate.requestedDate` | string | Yes |   |
| `approvedRate.date` | string | Yes |   |
| `approvedRate.numerator` | string | Yes |   |
| `approvedRate.denominator` | string | Yes |   |
| `approvedRate.source` | string | Yes |  Must be `"frankfurter"`. |
| `approvedRate.provider` | string | No |   |
| `approvedRate.settled` | boolean | Yes |   |
| `lookupDate` | string | No | Optional shared-store requested day (YYYY-MM-DD). First review fx_rate; the approved numerator, denominator and observation day must match. A human approval source_document remains required.  |

## After acceptance

When the command emits events, its documented effects and receipt are recorded in the command transaction. The response returns `commandId`, `replayed`, the command-specific `result` below and emitted `events` with their IDs and CIDs. A command is not automatically a cash movement or revenue recognition: use the behavior above to determine what this command records.

Inspect `result` and the affected records or reports before continuing. Save returned identifiers for later calls. Fetch `GET /v1/commands/{id}` with `commandId` to recover the accepted receipt; retry the same intent with the same idempotency key if the response was lost. Some commands can succeed with `events: []` and return a transient result and `commandId` without persisting a receipt. A lookup of that ID can return null; retain the returned result and verify the affected record. Retrying can re-evaluate the current state rather than replay a stored result. A domain `no_change` is a separate success outcome with no persisted receipt.

### Result fields

Required means required within its containing object; an optional parent can be omitted.

| Field | Type | Required | Meaning and accepted values |
|---|---|---|---|
| `eventId` | integer | Yes |   |
