Some of our users have reported that, when generating reports in Method, the currency symbol that appears is inconsistent with the currency they want to express: for example, a pound sterling symbol (£) in place of a dollar symbol ($).
This issue can be traced back to the user's browser language settings and is easily corrected!
NOTE: If necessary, it is possible to hard-code your currency symbols into your reports through customization.
