How Stream sets your location's currency
Every location on Stream needs a currency so your prices, taxes, and payouts calculate correctly. Stream now handles this in a few ways:
1. Automatically, from your POS
Most POS systems report a currency for each location, and Stream uses it automatically. There's nothing you need to do here.
2. Inferred from your location's country
Some POS systems (for example, certain Oracle Simphony/Micros setups) don't report a usable currency. In these cases, Stream now infers a sensible default currency based on your location's country instead of failing to set one at all.
3. Set it yourself, if needed
If your POS can't provide a currency and you need to set or correct it, go to Locations > [your location] > Settings and look for the Currency field. Select the correct currency and save.
Good to know
If you set a currency manually and your POS later reports a different one, Stream will ask whether you want to switch to the POS-reported currency or keep your manual selection.
