Currencies

The Currency master data page shows a standardized list of all currencies your company can use, including both system created and user-defined currencies that can be used for various business functions in the InEight cloud platform applications and associated to projects. Each currency allows you to include the applicable plural form of the currency (i.e., Dollar vs. Dollars), the subunit for the currency (i.e., Dollars and Cents), and the plural form of the subunit (i.e., Cents).

With the applicable permissions, you can select the icon to add, edit, or delete master data currencies. Permissions are configured in Roles and permissions > Master data libraries > Currency.
