Go into File>Financial Configuration>Currency Codes and enter the foreign currency. Note that your home currency need not be entered, as Ostendo will use your computers Regional Settings. Against each currency you can add the currency symbol and that will be used throughout Ostendo. There are a couple of ways to enter the Currency Symbol if the symbol is not on your keyboard
1. Go into Microsoft Word and select Insert on the top toolbar. In the dropdown list select ‘Symbol’. You can now select the symbol and ‘Insert’ into the word document. From there you can copy the symbol and paste it into this field
2. Set your keyboard with ‘Numerics Lock’. Using the enabled numbers due to the Numerics Lock being on (I.e. NOT the numbers 0 to 6 on the top row of the keyboard) you should place the cursor where the symbol is to appear and then - holding down the ‘Alt’ key - enter
