Multiple Currencies
If you wish to use more than one currency install a currency updater module.

Modules → Update Currency - Click Install Module shown top right of screen - the number shown next to it indicates the number of modules available.
- Click a module to use from the list.
- Click Install Module

- Enter a Sort Order value. Do not leave 0 as the Sort Order on modules as it can cause problems. You can give it any number, in this case enter 10 so if you decide to install another module it leaves the option of entering a lesser value for the next if required.
- Click Save
Come back to this page and click Update Exchange Rate
The default currency value remains at 1.00000000 with all other currencies adjusted according to the exchange rate.

If you wish to use only one currency, remove unwanted currencies in the main list on the left by clicking on the currency and click Delete
Optionally, disable or remove the Currencies module in Navbar - Modules → Navbar as it serves little or no purpose if you use only one currency.
