| Hiding the currency symbol There's a setting to show or hide currency symbols in AccountRight windows (Setup > Preferences > Windows tab > Show Currency Symbol in Windows). The currency symbol will always show in reports. |
If the currency format settings are correct within AccountRight but still display incorrectly, check the Windows currency settings as described in the next section. Currency settings are based on your computer's Windows settings. The instructions below describe how to change these settings for all current Windows versions. UI Expand |

title | Can I change my local currency? |
---|
| If you're using an Australian version of AccountRight, your local currency is automatically set to Australian Dollars (AUD). For New Zealand versions, it's set to New Zealand Dollars (NZD). Although you could rename your local currency to another currency, we don't advise doing so as it's not how the software was designed to be used. It'll also cause issues when upgrading to the new AccountRight, as the local currency can only be AUD or NZD. |
