Programs need a Currency selection

Description - Programs need to show the currency of the projects within that program

Why is this feature important to you - We have multiple programs where all the projects within that program are in GBP, but when viewing aggregated data rolled up at the program level, it defaults to USD. This is time consuming and frustrating for users looking at a Dashboard in the left nav, they have to go to the View dropdown and the Change Currency dropdown within there to select their specific currency, the 'Project's Original Currency' shows all aggregated values in USD. If currency custom fields are used on a program, they also default to showing a US dollar symbol in front of the value

How would you like the feature to work - Programs allow for a selection of currency and show all currency fields in the selected currency.

Current Behaviour - When viewing custom currency fields on a program or when viewing Dashboards with aggregated values on a report that have been added to the left nav of a Program, they all default to USD.

Yep: agreed and upvoted, @heather_kulbacki,

 

And while you are waiting, I invite you to also consider our AFA Burn List solution, which takes care of this requirement (among others).

 

Regards,

Doug

Definitely need this capability! Can't believe it's not an existing option.
