About This Feature
Overview
Currency in WPS on Android is a field type for entering and displaying monetary values in smart spreadsheet data tables. It is suitable for quotes, expenses, budgets, and other records that need amount-based data.
Core tasks include:
- Create a currency field: set a column field type to Currency from the header editing panel.
- Enter an amount: open a record and type the amount into the Currency field.
This feature works well for mobile expense tracking, budget follow-up, quote records, and lightweight financial logs. Compared with a general number field, a currency field is more suitable for amount-focused data display.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In Android data tables, WPS can create a dedicated Currency field and let you enter amounts directly in record details for mobile expense and budget tracking. | Excel for Android can format cells as Currency or Accounting and lets users choose a currency symbol and decimal display. | Google Sheets on Android can format spreadsheet cells as currency, with currency options affected by the sheet locale. | Notion database Number properties can be formatted as currency for price and amount tracking, but this is a database property model rather than a traditional cell-based spreadsheet. | Adobe Acrobat focuses on PDF editing, conversion, and signing rather than native spreadsheet currency-column editing. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS defines money data at the field level in a structured table. Distinct: this is convenient for ongoing mobile record entry instead of only changing cell display format. | Compared with WPS: Excel focuses on formatting spreadsheet cells rather than creating a dedicated structured currency field in a data table. | Compared with WPS: Google Sheets focuses on cell formatting in spreadsheets, with currency display tied to sheet formatting settings. | Compared with WPS: Notion supports currency formatting in database properties, but the workflow is database-oriented rather than spreadsheet-style field entry. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat is built for PDF workflows, so it is not a direct spreadsheet-style alternative for structured amount entry. |
