    Double Dollar Signs

    Just noticed my Estimates, Sales Orders, Invoices show double dollar signs on all the money fields on screen. Anyone else seeing this?

    Hello Blake and Matt,

       I have to ask first, are there double '$$' in the Default Currency Symbol field? (You can find it under Customize -> Display

        Also, are you using QB Online or QB Desktop?  What is in your currency symbol field?  If you can, can you supply a screenshot of an invoice with the double dollar signs.  There may be something that we can spot some clues.

    Just a single '$' in the Default Currency Symbol field (Customize--> Display).

    Anything more on this? I still notice my Sales Order and Invoice screens have the double dollar signs on the Method calculated fields (e.g. Tax amount, totals, payments applied, balance due).

    My Estimate screen looks fine and does not have double dollar signs. Each of these screens are customized.

    Hello Blake,

       Does the default Sales Orders screen show two dollar signs?  You can find it under Customize -> Screens -> QuickBooks_SalesOrder.  Also, do you have anything set in the Formatting and Advanced Options for the two fields?

    No...default/stock Sales Order screen does not show double signs. However...the default/stock Invoices screen DOES show double signs.

    Nothing special other than Bold formatting and Read Only set on these fields on the screen

    Hello Blake,

        If it's showing on the default screens, then give us a call on Method Support.  It would be easier to diagnose if it is a bug in the system or a problem with settings. The number is 1-888-925-6238 x2.
