*Situation
Hello folks. Kindly assist me, I would like to know how to change currency from the default US dollar sign to say Kenyan Shillings (KES). Look at the screenshot at my pharmacy.
Thanks.

Thanks for your feedback @growlingflea I had tried that before, it changes nothing unless if there is something else I’m not doing right.
Hi @Quantice ,
That localization setting doesn’t cover the entire codebase yet. You can also use the language translation module to get all the other currency signs converted. Go to Administration->Language->Edit Definitions:
Search for the $ constant, then place what you want instead and click ‘Load Definitions’ for English. Then you should be good.

hi again @Quantice ,
Turns out the currency symbol in the prescription will not be translated either. So, I made a quick fix for it to use the Currency Designator setting that @growlingflea pointed out.
Here are the code changes (minimal, and you likely can make those edits by hand in your code), which I will bring into the development codebase very soon (so fix will be in OpenEMR version 5.0.2).
