Enabling or Disabling Multiple Currency Support

To enable multiple currency support, set the Archibus application parameter AbCommonResources-EnableVatAndMultiCurrency to Yes.

To set the Budget Currency for the organization, set the Archibus Application Parameter AbCommonResources-BudgetCurrency to the desired ISO 4217 currency code. The currency must exist in the afm_currencies table. The default value in the databases shipped with Archibus is USD.

You will need to restart the application server after changing these application parameter values.

After enabling these features, you can add:

  • Currencies
    • Use the System / Archibus Administrator / Archibus Configuration Administrator/ Define Currencies task.
  • Conversion rate for currencies.
    • Use the System / Archibus Administrator / Archibus Configuration Administrator/ Define Exchange Rates task.
