Currency Setup
General
Option | Description |
---|---|
Default Currency | The default currency used in the system. Set this to your most preferred currency. To add additional currencies see Adding a Currency. |
Show Currency Code | Check to enable displaying the currency code next to each currency value (e.g. USD). If you accept more than one currency that uses the same symbol this is highly recommended. |

Multi-Currency
Option | Description |

Use Package Pricing for New Services Only | Check to allow packages to be ordered only using the pricing defined for that package. Checking this requires that pricing be defined for each currency you wish to accept for that package. In other words, this prevents currency conversion from taking place. |
Automatically Update Exchange Rates | Check to allow exchange rates to be automatically updated using one of the available exchange rate processors. |
Exchange Rate Processor | Sets the exchange rate processor to fetch updated exchange rates from. Not all currencies may be supported by all processors. |
Rates Last Updated | Displays the last time exchange rates were updated. Click Update Now? to force an update of exchange rates manually. |
Pad Exchange Rates | Exchange rates are based on large value transactions between banks, so your rate may be significantly higher than reported by the exchange rate processor. Use this value to pad exchange rates to ensure you do not lose money on the conversion. |
