Changing default currency and symbol
With Aloha Takeout v13.1, you can change the currency and related symbol to match your region. The currency symbol in Aloha Takeout currently defaults to the US dollar. Aloha Takeout contains the following built-in currency symbols:
- Brazil = Real (R$)
- China = Yuan (¥)
- England = Pound (£)
- European Union = Euro (€)
- Japan = Yen (¥)
To change the default currency and related symbol, it is necessary to:
- Change the regional settings in your configuration management tool: Aloha Manager or Aloha Configuration Center.
- Change the culture settings in Aloha Takeout.
SCENARIO: Your restaurant operates in the United Kingdom. You want the FOH to display the currency symbol of the pound sterling symbol rather than the US dollar sign.*
