    Question

    Provide some tips for using the CCur Function (Currency Function) in Voyager Prepackaged Access Reports.

    Answer

    The CCur function converts a value to currency.  

    Format: CCur(AMOUNT)

    Example: CCur(5396/100)=$53.96

    You can easily test the CCur function call by putting the function directly into a query as shown below (PRO TIP: don't forget about using the Access Zoom feature by placing your cursor in the field and pressing SHIFT-F2 in order to make it easier to see):

    Base Currency Conversion (for dollars and other 100-based currencies): 

    Example:

    AMT: CCur([AMOUNT]/100)

    More generally, include the BASE_CURRENCY Table in your query (see following example) and use:

    AMT: CCur([AMOUNT]/10^[BASE_DECIMALS])

    Foreign Currencies

    Example:

    AMT: CCur(([LINE_PRICE]/([CONVERSION_RATE]/100000))/10^[BASE_DECIMALS])

    PRO TIP: CURRENCY_CODE shows the Currency used.
