Currencies window

FinLease lets you choose from 182 different currencies which are divided into three groups:

	EMU currencies	The Euro and the currencies of the 12 member countries of the Economic and Monetary Union.
..	Online updates	35 commonly used currencies whose Euro exchange rates can be updated online. Here you'll find the US Dollar and the Japanese Yen.
..	Manual updates	Currencies whose Euro exchange rates need to be updated manually. Here you'll find currencies such as the Afghanistan Afghani and the Zimbabwean Dollar.

FinLease also provides two "special" currencies:

	None	The "None" currency has neither ISO code nor symbol. Use it when you don't want an ISO code or symbol to appear on screen or in the saved results. The "None" currency is located at the top of the EMU currencies list.
	Custom	Use the "Custom" currency if your currency is not available among the 182 provided currencies. The "Custom" currency is located at the bottom of the Manual updates list.
