Bloomberg mystery

Can anyone who is using Bloomberg tell me why the historical AUD/USD exchange rates on 26 March and 20 March are different? The only difference between the two screenshots below are the date of the screen generation - one on 26 March and the other on 27 March. Both are from the same source (NY). The impact of using these rates can be quite serious for a multi billion dollar fund. I've never used Bloomberg before and these screenshots are provided to me from colleagues from AIG (AIA) Malaysia and Hong Kong respectively.
