Currency Precision |
F |
Displays the precision of the currency, which designates the number of digits to the right of the decimal point used in currency transactions. Precision can be zero or two.
The level of decimal precision indicated is used for inventory costing calculations to maintains consistency between inventory costing and reporting. Values in report results are rounded to the base currency precision. This rounding applies to currency values and non-currency values, including formula column values.
To change this read-only field to a dropdown list through which you can change the precision from zero or two, contact NetSuite Technical Support. |

Default Exchange Rate ( To Root Subsidiary Currency ) |
T |
Enter an exchange rate for this currency against the base currency of this company, or if you use OneWorld, for this currency against the base currency of the root parent subsidiary.
For example, if your company is located in Canada and you are defining the U.S. dollar, and the current exchange rate is 1.02 Canadian dollars to 1.00 U.S. dollar, the Default Exchange Rate for the U.S. dollar is 1.02/1.00, or 1.02.
This rate is the basis for rates in the Currency Exchange Rates table that are used in foreign currency transactions. If you use OneWorld, this rate also is the basis for rates in the Consolidated Exchange Rates table that are used in consolidated financials.For more information, see the help topic Setting Currency Exchange Rates. |

Automatic Update |
F |
If the Currency Exchange Rate Integration feature is enabled in your account, this box is checked to indicate that exchange rates should be updated automatically by the system every day.
Clear this box if you do not want automatic updates to this currency.
If this box is cleared for a base currency, the only automatic updates that occur with that currency are updates to other base currencies. For example, if the definition of GBP as a base currency does not have automatic update enabled, then no updates occur, except with other base currencies, which consider the GBP a foreign currency. |
