Issue/Introduction

 

The currency symbol "$" is the standard symbol and is used in Tanzu CloudHealth Reports for the following currencies:

  • USD - United States Dollars
  • CAD - Canadian Dollars
  • NZD - New Zealand Dollars
  • AUD - Australian Dollars
  • HKD - Hong Kong Dollars

We do not currently use common alternative conventions or codes such as:

  • NZ$ - New Zealand Dollars
  • HK$ - Hong Kong Dollars
  • AU$ - Australian Dollars
  • CA$ - Canadian Dollars

This can result in confusion where a change has been made between currencies with the same symbol.  The symbol appears unchanged but the currency change has been made.
