General

When you edit a currency, the following information is available:

  • ID – read-only, unique internal system ID of the currency.
  • ISO code – read-only, built-in 3-character ISO code of the currency, according to the international banking standards.
  • Rate to primary – the exchange rate between the currency you are editing and the primary currency. The current currency is used as the base, so the rate is always in the format of “1 (current currency) = (Exchange rate of the Primary Currency)”. The exchange rate allows up to four decimal points of precision. The administrator can enter the rate manually, or use the “Update to Primary” button on the right, which will attempt to retrieve the rate from the online bank.
  • Symbol – here you can enter the internationally accepted symbol for the currency, or leave it blank to use the ISO code. For example, the symbol for the U.S. dollar is “$”, for British pound “£”, and for Euro – “€”. You should only use the common ASCII symbols, which will be visible in all browsers.
  • Symbol Position – this setting specifies where the symbol should be positioned, with respect to the number of the amount. For instance, in the U.S. the dollar symbol is usually positioned to the left, like this: “$10.00”, and in the E.U. the euro symbol is positioned to the right, like this: “10.00€”.
  • Name – here you can enter the language label variable that contains the natural name of the currency, which can be different in different languages.
  • Primary – this checkbox controls whether the currency is enabled or disabled. Disabled currencies are not shown on the front end, cannot be used for purchasing, and are not automatically updated when global update is issued.
  • Priority – the numerical priority of the currency that affects its sorting on the storefront. Currencies with higher priority will be listed higher, and ones with the same priority will be sorted by the ISO code.
