  • Key Concepts: 
    System currency is a feature of SAP Business One (SBO) that allows users to set a default currency for their system. This currency is used to record all financial transactions and is the basis for all calculations. It is important to note that the system currency cannot be changed once it has been set. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To set the system currency, go to the Administration menu and select System Initialization. Under the General tab, select the Currency field and choose the desired currency from the drop-down list. Once selected, click OK to save the changes. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    It is important to note that all transactions must be recorded in the system currency. If a transaction is made in a different currency, it must be converted into the system currency before it can be recorded.
