Currency Site Column

A currency column is useful for columns that are designated to hold only monetary values. Currency columns can be used in calculations.

To configure a currency site column, enter a name in the Column name textbox and complete the common properties. Then complete the additional column settings unique to this type of column and, optionally, the column validation settings.

Additional Column Settings for a currency site column:

  1. Limits allow you to specify the minimum and maximum value allowed. If the user enters a value outside of the bounds a message will be displayed along with the limits.
  2. Decimals allow you to designate the number of decimal places. By default this is set to Automatic which can render different displays for each value.
  3. Default Value allows you to enter an initial numeric value.
  4. Currency Format allows you to select a country from the menu to determine the currency type and how the values are displayed with the corresponding symbol.
