This article explains how an Enterprise Retailer can set the precious metal locks they want to drive their Cost Submissions, ensuring uniformity & accuracy in the sourcing approval process.
⚠️ Warning
This action can only be done only by an Administrator or a Sourcing Team Manager.
Follow the below steps to populate your sourcing metal locks:
Step 1: Navigate to Sourcing > Precious Metals and click on pencil icon to start adding your sourcing metal locks. 
Step 2: Populate metal lock values for the main currency you purchase goods in.
Step 3 : Click Add Currency link to add metal locks for any additional currencies that your company buys goods in, and repeat the process to add metal locks.
📔 Note:
- Your home currency is set as default currency
- You can sourcing metal locks in up to 5 currencies of your choice
Step 4 : Now you will be able to see all added metal locks on your Sourcing Metal Lock table:
⚠️ Warning
If you do not list a Sourcing Metal Lock in any given currency - for example Euros - then you will not be able to receive a Cost Submission from vendors who sell you in that currency.
It should be noted that just because your vendor has traditionally sold to you in your currency of choice for ease of accounting purposes - eg a Euro vendor selling in USD - it does not follow that they will submit you in USD on Atelier, because Atelier has automatic currency conversions and fixed exchange rate tools to automate this trading requirement.
Please enquire with your account manager for more details if you are not clear.
