Maintaining Currencies
Currencies identify specific monetary units. The currency browser displays currencies currently defined in your system. Use the Currency Maintenance screen to maintain currency codes for your base currency as well as any other currencies your company uses.
Note: Some currency types are provided during installation. If your QAD CRM system is integrated with a QAD ERP application, the initial data load procedures synchronize currency and exchange rate information between QAD CRM and the QAD ERP application.
You also can maintain exchange rates if you use multiple currencies in your system. For details see Maintaining Exchange Rates.
