While editing have an eye on the money value next to the currency chooser,  showing a live preview of your settings.  Another option worth mentioning is  the decimal precision selector. Besides the setting you make, all money values are stored with  six decimal places. When displayed they are rounded to the chosen precision.

We provide  a couple of currencies but not all have good defaults (inserted on select). If you provide us with options for your country/currency we will update them.

Within the date format field you can use a couple of placeholders to change the date formatting in any way you like. The formatting will then be used everywhere a date is shown, be it in an invoice list or on an invoice pdf template.

For the beginners in date formatting there are a couple of templates to provide an easy start. The pro’s should take a look into ruby’s strftime function.
