Considerations for Multiple Currencies in Salesforce Forecasting
If your company uses forecasts and multiple currencies, your Salesforce admin chooses a
forecast currency and enables forecast types. The forecast currency is your corporate currency
or each forecast owner’s personal currency.

Dated exchange rates aren’t used in forecasting.
When you use forecasts, you select a display currency, which can be any currency that’s
enabled in Salesforce. To change the currency, select a
different currency from the gear (Lightning Experience) or the dropdown list (Salesforce
Classic) in the upper right of the forecasts page.
If you use revenue-based pipeline forecasts, when currency rates change, opportunities and
adjustments roll up with the changed value along with values in the forecast table.
Rate changes impact all forecast periods (historical, current, and future).
Deactivating a currency that’s set as a user’s personal currency resets the user’s
currency to the corporate currency.
To edit your personal currency settings, edit your personal information.
If you add a custom filter on a currency field as part of your forecast type definition,
the corporate currency at the time the filter was created is used.
