Currency Configuration Wizard

Once you configure a currency in your EMS database, you can assign the currency to buildings, categories, and/or calculations. You can assign the currency to a single building, category, or calculation during configuration. You can also use the Currency Configuration Wizard to assign the currency to multiple buildings, categories, and/or calculations in a single step.
