About This Feature
Overview
The Currency Field in WPS Office for iOS is a field type for storing and displaying amount data in multidimensional tables. After you create the field, you can enter amounts for each record and display them in a currency format for budgeting, quotations, expense tracking, and similar workflows.
Core tasks include:
- Create a currency field: set the field type to Currency from the header editing panel and name the field.
- Enter an amount: open the record details and type an amount into the currency field.
Compared with a standard number field, a currency field is better suited to price, cost, and budget data because it is displayed in a money-oriented format.
