Currencies

Add currencies from the list with automatic rates, or your own with a rate you set.

Every currency you use is added to the household once, in Currencies. The first one you add becomes the base currency.

Add a currency

Click Currency and choose:

  • From the list — pick a currency; its name, sign, number of decimals and rate to your base currency are filled in, and its reference rate is then loaded automatically every day.
  • My own — for anything not in the list: enter a code, name, sign and the rate to your base currency yourself.

The table

For each currency you see its code, name, sign, decimals, Rate to your base currency and the inverse rate. Amounts everywhere are shown with the currency’s number of decimals — two for euros, none for currencies without cents.

Change a rate

Change the rate records a new reference rate from today. Entries keep the rate of their own date: changing the reference rate never rewrites the past. For a single entry at a different rate, set your own rate in the entry instead.

Archive

A currency you no longer use can be archived; its history stays in reports. Restore brings it back.
