== How do I select a currency for my deals? ==

ActiveCampaign offers users the ability to manage deals in multiple currencies, which is particularly vital for businesses operating internationally. This feature allows organizations to tailor their sales processes according to the currency preferences of their clients, thereby enhancing customer experience and operational efficiency. This article will guide you through selecting, updating, and configuring currencies for your deals within ActiveCampaign.

== What is this feature, and why does it matter? ==
The '''Select a currency''' feature within the Deals section of ActiveCampaign enables users to specify currencies for individual deals or set a default currency for entire pipelines. This capability is crucial for businesses managing international transactions or operating in multiple markets. By accurately reflecting the currency in use, businesses can prevent confusion and ensure transparency for all stakeholders involved.

== How to access this feature ==
To access the currency selection feature in ActiveCampaign, navigate to the '''Deals''' page within your account. This is where you can create new deals or edit existing ones while managing their respective currencies.

== Step-by-step instructions ==
=== Selecting a currency when creating a deal ===
Follow these steps to select a currency for a new deal:

# Click '''Deals''' to navigate to the Deals page in your ActiveCampaign account.
# Click the '''pipeline dropdown''' then select the pipeline where you wish to create a new deal.
# Click '''Add a deal'''. You can choose to click the '''Add a deal''' button on the top right of the page, or select the option below any stage in your pipeline.
# Fill in the required information in the '''Add a New Deal''' modal. To select a currency, click the '''currency dropdown''' and choose your desired currency.
# Once all information is filled out, click the '''Add Deal''' button.

When multiple deals with different currencies exist in a single stage, they will be represented as "1 deal" with the corresponding currency at the top of that stage, with detailed listings of each deal below.

=== Updating the currency for a deal ===
To update the currency for an open deal, follow these instructions:

# Click '''Deals''' to navigate to the Deals page.
# Use the '''pipeline dropdown''' to select the pipeline containing the deal you wish to edit. You can alternatively search for the deal by entering the deal title, email, phone, or account name into the search field.
# Locate your deal and click it to open.
# Click the '''pencil icon''' next to the deal value.
# Click the current currency to reveal the dropdown, then choose your new currency.
# After changes are made, click '''Save Changes'''.

Similar to newly created deals, if multiple deals with different currencies are present in the same stage, they will be displayed collectively.

=== Setting a default currency for a pipeline ===
Setting a default currency for a pipeline means that any new deals added will reflect this currency. Existing deals with different currencies remain unchanged. To set a default currency:

# Click '''Deals''' to navigate to the Deals page.
# Click the '''pipeline dropdown''' and select the pipeline you wish to edit.
# Click the '''gear icon''' next to the pipeline name.
# In the dropdown menu that appears, click '''Options'''.
# In the '''Pipeline Options''' modal that opens, click the '''Default Currency''' dropdown field.
# Select your desired currency for all future deals in this pipeline.
# Finally, click the '''Save''' button.

== Configuration options and settings ==
In ActiveCampaign's Deals CRM, supported currencies include a variety of international currencies which facilitate flexible transaction processing. Users can choose from a comprehensive list to best suit the needs of their business transactions.

== Best practices and tips ==
- Always ensure that you select the appropriate currency when creating or updating deals to avoid confusion among team members and clients.
- Regularly review and update your pipeline's default currency if your business operations expand into new markets or if you're working with clients in different regions.
- When communicating with clients about deal values, always mention the currency used to prevent misunderstandings.

== Common use cases with examples ==
- An international marketing firm may use the currency feature to manage deals in USD for American clients while handling transactions in EUR for European clients. 
- A real estate agency that operates in different countries may want to set different currencies for their respective deals to align with local markets and client expectations.

- Verify that the currency you are attempting to select is supported by ActiveCampaign’s Deals CRM.
- Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to create or edit deals within your ActiveCampaign account.
