Select the symbol used to separate groups of digits in the currency display, for example, 300,000 or 300-000.

Tip

If you want to view costs in the old base currency, you will need to add it back to the list of available currencies.

The Base checkbox indicates which currency is used to store cost data. You cannot mark or clear this checkbox.
