The '''Rationalis''' was the [[Roman Empire]]'s chief financial minister prior to the reforms of Emperor [[Diocletian]] and the Late Empire. Among the tasks of the ''rationalis'' were the collection of all normal taxes and duties, the control of currency, and the administration of mines and mints. After the reforms of [[Diocletian]], the ''rationalis'' and the [[Rationibus]] were replaced by the ''comes sacrarum largitionum''.
