Understanding How to Print Currency Descriptions

You can set up the X00500S2 - Spanish (male) translation routine to print the description, or name, of the currency after the amount. For example, you can set up this translation routine to print the word Pesos after the amount.

To set up this translation routine to print currency descriptions, you set up the processing options on the Convert Numeric values to words - Spanish program (P00500S2). To print currency descriptions, you must specify both the singular and plural versions of the currency description in the processing options. If you leave the processing options blank, the name of the currency does not print after the amount.

In addition, if you leave these processing options blank, the conjunction "con" prints between the whole number amount (peso) and the centavos. If you complete the processing options, the word "con" is omitted.

Specify X00500S2 as the translation routine in the processing options of the payment format program that you are using, for example, R04572.
