    It can do any math conversion manually using Generate Attributes, but if you are looking for an automatic conversion operator, there isn't one built in.  However you could easily get it via an API and the one of the web mining operators if you have a free source of that data.

    Yes - am looking for a function to get exchange rates and convert currencies. I have a sheet with rows containing several different currencies. Need to create an attribute that displays all values in USD.

    I have used the OpenExchangeRates API several times with good success. https://openexchangerates.org/
