Currencies
By default, the system includes three currencies: USD, EUR, and GBP. You can add more currencies at any time. In this document, you can find information on how to add, edit, and delete currencies.
Add Currency
- Go to your Control Panel > Admin > Settings menu.
- Click the Currencies icon.
- On the page that follows, click the Create New button.
- Fill in the form that appears:
- Name - give the label to your currency
- Unit - insert a currency symbol
- Code - fill in a three-character currency code that is generally used to represent the currency you wish to add (for example, USD, EUR)
- Separator - specify a character used to format decimal numbers. For example, 100.99.
Delimiter - set a grouping character used to separate thousands. For example, 100,000,000.
Be aware that it is prohibited to set the delimiter and separator which are identical.
- Precision - specify the number of digits after the separator. The Precision parameter is used to display the costs total for a certain period, for example, Outstanding amount, Total Cost, and Payments.
Precision per unit - the number of digits after the separator. The Precision per unit parameter is used to display the prices for the resources, such as CPU, Disk size, RAM, IP, Data stores, Edge servers, Disks, Backups, Templates, etc.
The precision cannot exceed 8 symbols.
- Format - set how the currency will be displayed in the Control Panel. Use the following parameters:
- %n - for the digits
- %u - for the currency symbol
- Click Save.
Now you have the currency configured in the system. To use it further, you have to associate it with a bucket: create a new bucket or edit the existing one.
For example, the currency form for US Dollars might look as follows…
