estimate header. This is independent of which currency code that is defined for

records are established, there is no connection with the selected currency rate
type, updates/modifications can hence be performed without any restrictions.

rate type, the version valid from date is considered when copying the currency
rates. Only the currency rates which have a valid from date matching the valid
from date for the version are copied.
