To add a new currency:
- From the Module Menu select Maintenance, Acquisitions and then Currencies.
- Click New.
- Specify the new Currency code and Description.
Use the ANSI code as the currency code. That way the Description and ANSI code fields will be automatically set.
- Specify the Currency symbol. This is the symbol you want to appear on purchase orders. If you don’t specify a symbol then the Currency code will be printed on the purchase orders.
- Enter the exchange rate in the Bank rate box.
For example, say your local currency is Australian Dollars (AUD) and you're adding British Pounds (GBP). If the exchange rate is 1 GBP = 1.654810 AUD then the Bank rate for the GBP currency is 1.654810.
- Click Save or Save & Close.
