How to configure the Functional currency field?

[diana felipe]

Client Need: Financial reports must be submitted in MXN, even if the projects are in USD or other currencies.
I noticed that I need to change the Functional Currency field to MXN. My user is located in Mexico. However, I can't get the currency to change in the Functional Currency field.

Hi @diana felipe 

May you try check the Company record

• Navigate to the Company table (core_company)
• Ensure the Default Functional Currency is set to MXN for the company your project belongs to.

Hi @diana felipe ,

The Functional Currency is tied to the system reference (or base) currency, driven by the instance locale and is essentially informational (read only) on the Cost Plan form, meaning you can’t change it per project to MXN just because a user is in Mexico; instead, you use the Entered Currency field (or the multi currency feature) to input amounts in a different currency, and the system converts them internally to the functional currency...
