Can I set my country's currency, the decimals and the units of measure on the platform?

Currency and decimals, yes; units of measure, no. In Farm details > «Currency and number format» you choose the currency, where the symbol goes, the thousands and decimal separators and how many decimals are shown; kilos, meters and hectares are fixed for every farm.

Step by step

  1. Open your avatar menu and choose Farm details.
  2. On the Currency and number format card, set the five fields described below.
  3. Check It will look like this:, the preview that changes as you choose.
  4. Tap Save.

The five fields:

  • Currency: a searchable list of 23 currencies, including the Colombian peso, Mexican peso, Peruvian sol, Brazilian real, US dollar, euro, Japanese yen and Chinese yuan. The system adds the symbol.
  • Symbol position: Left, Right, Left with space or Right with space.
  • Thousands separator: Period or Comma.
  • Decimal separator: Period or Comma. It can't be the same as the thousands separator.
  • Number of decimals: 0, 1 or 2 decimals.

A new farm starts with Colombia's format. Only someone with permission to edit the farm details can change it; everyone else sees the card but can't edit it.

Where you'll notice it

  • Across the whole app and for every user on the farm: tasks, payroll, advances, sales, purchases and the Home screen.
  • In Excel and PDF reports, which come out with your currency and separators, in whole numbers. We explain it in exporting reports.
  • Offline: the format stays saved on the device and keeps being applied. If you change it without signal, it applies right away on that device and uploads when the connection comes back. More in currency and default values offline.

Changing the currency doesn't convert the values you've already recorded: it only changes how they're written. That's why it's best to choose it when you start.

Units of measure

There's no per-farm units setting. Owari Agro works with fixed units:

  • Harvesting, in kilos: «Kg harvested» and «Price Kg».
  • Planting spacing in meters, and plot area in hectares.
  • Fertilization, with the dose in grams per tree and bags with their weight in kilos.
  • The «Unit of measure» of each product you sell is picked from a catalog managed by Owari, with options such as Kg or Sack. If you need another one, ask for it at soporte@owariagro.com.

Next to this card, on the same page, you'll find the daily wage, the price per kilo and meals: see how to set up those default values.
