| 00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Set Currency. |
| 00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn how to set Currency in Koha. |
| 00:13 | To record this tutorial, I am using:
Ubuntu Linux Operating System 16.04 and Koha version 16.05. |
| 00:26 | To follow this tutorial, you should have knowledge of Library Science. |
| 00:32 | To practice this tutorial, you should have Koha installed on your system.
And, you should have Admin access in Koha. |
| 00:42 | Please refer to the Koha spoken tutorial series on this website for more details. |
| 00:49 | To start with, Login with Superlibrarian username Bella and her password. |
| 00:58 | Then click on Koha Administration. |
| 01:03 | A new page opens up. |
| 01:06 | Under the section Acquisition parameters, click on Currencies and exchange rates. |
| 01:15 | Note that this data is not updated automatically. |
| 01:20 | Therefore, it is important to update the data. This will also help to keep the correct accounting details. |
| 01:30 | Now, click on plus New currency. |
| 01:35 | In the new page that opens, fill in the mandatory details like-
Currency:, Rate: and Symbol:. |
| 01:47 | Since my library is in India, I will enter Rupee for Currency,
1 for Rate and the Rupee (₹) symbol. |
| 02:00 | Next, enter the ISO code: as INR. |
| 02:05 | To activate the currency, click the check-box. Last updated shows the date of currency setup. |
| 02:14 | Click on Submit button at the bottom of the page. |
| 02:19 | In the new page that opens, under the tab Currency, the details for Rupee appears. |
| 02:27 | If the need be, the same can be edited as well. |
| 02:32 | For Assignment:
Set any currency as per your requirement but do not make it 'Active'. |
| 02:41 | Let’s go back to the Koha interface. |
| 02:45 | On the same page, click on the tab- Column visibility. |
| 02:50 | From the options, click on the tab ISO code. |
| 02:55 | The ISO column for Rupee appears in the table. |
| 03:00 | Remember that the entered ISO code will be used when importing MARC files via the staging tools. |
| 03:09 | The tool will attempt to find and use the price of the currently active currency. |
| 03:16 | To edit the Currency, click on Edit option for that particular Currency. I will click on Edit for the currency USD. |
| 03:29 | Modify currency page opens up. |
| 03:32 | You may change the value of Rate and Symbol. I will leave it as they are. |
| 03:40 | Note that I will not click in the check-box for the field ‘Active’. |
| 03:46 | An active currency is the main currency to use in the library. |
| 03:51 | Since my library is in India, Rupee will be used as active currency. |
| 03:57 | Next, click on Submit at the bottom of the page. |
| 04:02 | The same page Currencies and exchange rates re-opens. |
