The Main page of a Currency document contains detailed information about the currency, including its currency codes and currency precision.
The following information is shown. The Currency document needs to be in edit mode before you can modify the fields. The fields marked "(workspace only)" are available only from the Workspaces work area.
Enter the exchange rate for converting the defined currency to the workspace
currency. The Baseline Conversion Rate is required.
(workspace only)
Indicates whether the defined currency is the baseline currency. This
setting is available only when viewing the currency from the Workspacework area.
(workspace only)
(workspace only) Enter the conversion rate for Proliance to use to convert all values
in the workspace's baseline currency to the organization's currency. If the two currencies
are the same, leave the default setting at '1'.For example, if the organization uses USD (US Dollars), while the workspace's baseline currency is in CAD (Canadian Dollars), you might enter '0.7496' if that is the prevailing conversion rate.
(workspace only)
If the workspace is part of a portfolio, enter the conversion rate for Proliance to use to convert all values in the workspace's baseline currency to the portfolio's currency. If the workspace is not part of a portfolio or if the two currencies are the same, leave the default setting at '1'.
Type a custom code used to identify the defined currency. You use this
code during data entry and it is displayed in lists. An example of a custom
currency code is "USD@1.60". The Currency
Code is required and it must be unique in each workspace.
Type the number of places after the decimal that are used for calculations
involving defined currency values. This value must be between 0 and 5.
This setting is used for calculation purposes only. The number of places
after the decimal that are actually displayed for currency fields is determined
by your regional
settings. The Currency Precision
is required. Enter the symbol that identifies the currency. Examples of symbols include:
$ (Dollar), € (Euro), ¥ (Yen). For a defined currency, the default symbol
is from the real currency that was selected when the defined currency
was created. The currency symbol is required.
Enter the current exchange rate between a defined currency and the baseline
currency. This exchange rate is used to predict gains or losses based
on unspent conversion money remaining on the workspace, as shown on the Currency Gain or Loss Report. The Current
Conversion Rate is required. This setting is available only when
viewing the currency from the Workspaces work area.
(workspace only)Select the ISO currency code for the currency. This is the ISO alphabetic code for a real currency. ISO Currency Codes are associated with any number of custom currency codes. Proliance is shipped with several ISO currency codes. You can add more by editing the lookup. The ISO Currency Code is required.
Note: If you change the ISO Currency Code, be sure to update the Conversion Rate to Org and Conversion Rate to Prg as well. This is because any new code will most likely affect how the baseline currency is converted to the organization, portfolio currencies.
Type a string of characters that uniquely identifies this currency document,
or leave it blank if Proliance is configured to supply one. You can configure
the format of this number by using Proliance
Local Admin. For details, refer to the Proliance Local Admin on-line help.
Type a descriptive name for the currency. An example of a currency title
is "US Dollars @ 1.60 Canadian". This title is required and
it must be unique within the workspace. The Title
is required.
