Using Special Currency Formats

Some currencies use specialized formats for their currency symbols. This topic provides the information necessary to insert these special characters in reports.

Note:

To add a special currency symbol, for example the Turkish lira symbol, to reports, the font used for that symbol must be installed on your local machine and the server to which you connect. See "Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide" for font installation instructions.

  To add a special currency symbol to reports:

  1. Create a grid in a report in the Report Designer, or open an existing report containing a grid.

  2. Select a cell.

  3. Select Format, and then Cells.

  4. Select the Font tab, and then select the font for the currency symbol:

    • AbakuTLSymSans for the Turkish lira symbol

    • Rupee for the Indian rupee symbol

  5. Click Apply to apply the font selection.

  6. Select the Number tab.

    You can view the results of your number format option selections in the Sample section at the bottom of the Number tab.

  7. In Prefix or Suffix, enter the character or keystroke sequence for the desired currency symbol:

    • Ctrl+Alt+T to add the Turkish lira symbol as the prefix or suffix for numeric values

    • The accent grave character (`) to add the Indian rupee symbol as the prefix or suffix for numeric values

  8. Click Apply, and then click OK to apply the currency symbol as the prefix or suffix for the selected cells, save the font and symbol formatting and close the dialog.
