Determining the Currency

The currency preference of a store account is retrieved from its customer card. This is only the case for contacts and customers (not for Sales Representatives). When no currency preference is found, the default currency is returned.
Go to 'Financial Management' and click on the folder 'Setup'. Here you will find the 'General Ledger Setup' window. In the right column you see the field 'LCY Code' where you can set the default currency.

The currency preference of a customer is retrieved from its customer card. The preference of a contact is also retrieved from its customer card; the preference on the contact card will be ignored.
Sales Representatives do not have their own currency; they will always get the default currency of the selected customer.
