Currency Settings

These are global settings for invoice currencies.

These settings are independent of both an organization and a profile. It is possible to add multiple entries for these settings. As a result, the settings are displayed in a table. Also, when Kofax AP Agility is installed, this table is pre-populated with entries covering many world currencies. Add additional currencies as needed.

Any changes made to these settings are applied to new documents only. Documents that are already in-progress use the settings that were in-place when their processing began.

The following column settings are available:

Setting

Description

Index

The currency index. This is read-only and defined by Kofax AP Agility.

ISO Code

The currency ISO code for the currency settings group.

Alias

A comma-separated list of aliases for the currency. These aliases are listed in ISO Code setting above. For example, Pounds Sterling for GBP, U.S. Dollars or U.S. funds for USD, and Swiss Francs for CHF.

If any items on this list are found on the document then the extracted invoice currency is set to the ISO Code value above for the currency listed.

Amount Prefix

The comma-separated list of values that may precede or follow an amount on the invoice that represents the currency. For example, US$ would be the prefix for US$1000.00.

Symbol

The symbol associated with the corresponding currency.

This value must be a special character and not a single letter.

Country

The country associated with the currency symbol above.

If the symbol for the currency settings group is found on the document, and that symbol is unique across all currency settings groups, and the vendor country matches the country held in this setting, then the value held in ISO Code above is extracted as the invoice currency.

Tolerance Group

The tolerance group for the currency.

The values for this setting are defined in Settings > Invoice Processing > Global Settings > Tolerance Settings.
