Source discrepancies
What the warehouse found when it checked this series: the same figure from two agencies, splice overlaps, published rates against ones recalculated from the index, and outliers.
- Error in the source6 Oct 2015
This series reads 108.9; the same figure from the other source reads 105.4. Compared with
LK.EXT.FX.CAD.BUY.D.Two agencies: 108.92 and 105.36, difference 3.56.
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CAD.BUY.D: IF_Buying_Selling file vs the Data Library
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CAD.BUY.D: value 108.9200 vs Data Library 105.3600. Whole-day anomaly in the source file: every daily-TT currency (buy and sell) jumps on this one day while every neighbouring day matches the Data Library exactly (e.g. USD/BUY 144.53 here vs 138.9x the day before and after, in both the file and the Library) - re-verified series by series. A single bad row in IF_Buying_Selling_Exchange_Rates...xlsx, not a parsing issue.

LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CAD.BUY.D: IF_Buying_Selling file vs the Data Library
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CAD.BUY.D: value 120.3193 vs Data Library 120.2900. Every currency differs from the Data Library by under 0.2 LKR on this date - the file records 4 decimal places (e.g. USD/BUY 155.5247) where the Library's copy has 2 (155.43); a precision/rounding difference between two CBSL publications of the same TT rate, not an error.
