Use Case 1

1. Alice organized the trip. Before going, she went to bank and exchanged JPY 150,000 with CAD 1,325. At the end of the trip, Alice wants to use that CAD amount to settle with Bob who used JPY 40,000 and Dave who used JPY 60,000.

From : Alice                To: 
Currency: JPY             ➽   CAD
Amount: 150,000        ➽   1,325
Split among: Bob=40000 Dave=60000

The owe/owed amounts in JPY on Alice, Bob and Dave will be exchanged to the CAD amounts accordingly.

Use Case 2
