Configuring Currencies

Your company's currency is defined by an Admin in the Company Details settings page. This currency is known as your company currency. It is the default currency for all new rate cards and the currency displayed in all Standard and Advanced Reporting.  Additional currencies can be added along with their exchange rates in the company's Finance settings, also within the Admin panel. These currencies, also known as project currencies can be applied to specific projects, as needed. You must define a single company currency but you may create as many additional "project currencies" as needed.
