Dollar vs Pound

[saschamichel]

We have just installed sugar express but for soem strange reason cant seem to find a system wide option to view the currency in pound.
Only in dollar.

Does anyone know how to sort this?

Regards,

During installation you are asked for a default currency.
The preset value is USDollar.

If you want to change the default currency to anything else you can do that under admin - Local settings.

The default currency has no entry in table currency. It's id is always -99.

All amounts e.g.in opportunities are converted to the default currency according to the exchange rates and stored in a field called amount_usdollar (YES amout_default_currency would be better, but...)
