Currencies

This entity describes a currency available for use with the Autotask multi-currency installed module. The currency entity is used in Autotask only when the multi-currency installed module is enabled. It allows selected currency related fields to be queried and updated through the API. Currencies cannot be created or deleted.

In Autotask, when the multi-currency installed module is enabled, currencies are managed from the Currencies page, available to Administrators in the Autotask menu under Admin > Finance, Companying & Invoicing. They allow you to use different currencies for customer invoicing while setting your own internal currency.

NOTE The Currencies entity should not be confused with the currency local term list of available currencies. The local term option is not available when the multi-currency module is enabled.

NOTE You can refer to the Online Help to find root and child access URLs of the entity you wish to query. Refer to Finding resource and child access URLs of REST API entities for more information.
