Hi Jarno,

Could you explore using text attributes for those specific users for whom you want to grant access, say we set Text1 as "AllowFXRateEdits" for those set of  users. Then update your extensibility rule to check if user has Manage FX rate role or text1 attribute as "AllowFXRateEdits", allow edits FX rates.

They could go and update also the Actual rates.  Having the txt attribute does not give the user access to the rates
