Project Currency

Each project has a project currency used to display converted totals consistently across all statements.
  • Where to set it: Project SettingsGeneral
  • Options: USD, EUR, GBP, AUD
  • Default: USD
Project currency is used when showing aggregated or converted amounts in Insights, Assets revenue badges, and statement detail totals, so you can compare revenue across statements that were originally in different currencies.

Statement Currencies

Each statement has two currency fields that are normally detected during processing:
FieldDescription
Transaction CurrencyCurrency of the underlying sales transactions (e.g. the currency in which streams or downloads were reported).
Royalty CurrencyCurrency in which you are paid (statement payout currency).
If the system cannot detect one or both, the fields stay empty. You can set them manually in Edit Statement and then Retry so that conversion and reporting use the correct currencies.

FX Rate Conversion

Exchange rates are stored by date and currency pair and are used to convert statement amounts into the project currency (or other target currencies) for display.
  • Rates: Fetched from an exchange-rate API and stored daily for historical dates.
  • Base currencies: EUR, USD, AUD, CAD, GBP.
  • Conversion date: The sales period start date for each revenue row is used to look up the rate (not the statement upload date). That way, revenue is converted at the rate that applied when the sale occurred.
Where a converted amount is shown, it uses the rate for the statement’s royalty currency (and sales period) and the project currency. If no rate is found, a 1:1 rate is used so the original amount is shown without conversion.

Where Converted Totals Appear

Converted amounts (in project currency) are shown in:
  • Statement detail page — Totals at the top of the Contents tab when the project has a project currency set
  • Insights — Dashboards and statement-level insights (e.g. revenue by type, by source)
  • Assets — Revenue badges and totals on the Assets overview and on statement Assets tabs
In the UI, converted values are often indicated with a currency/conversion icon or tooltip (e.g. “Converted to [project currency] based on project currency”).

When Currency Is Not Detected

If the system does not detect a statement currency:
  • Processing still completes; only currency-dependent conversion is affected.
  • Amounts are shown in their original form; no FX conversion is applied (effectively treated as 1:1).
  • You can still set Transaction Currency and Royalty Currency in Edit Statement, then run Retry. After reprocessing, conversion will use the rates for the sales period and the currencies you set.

Reprocessing

Edit currencies and retry processing.
