IsActive	Type boolean Properties Defaulted on create, Filter Description Indicates whether this currency type is active (`true`) or not (`false`). Inactive currency types do not appear in picklists in the user interface. Label is Active. This field defaults to `false` if no value is provided when updating or inserting a record.

All other currency conversion rates are applied against this corporate currency. If a currency is already defined as the corporate currency in the user interface, it can't be unset.

Usage

This object is for multicurrency organizations only. Use this object to define the currencies your organization uses.

When updating an existing record, make sure to provide values for all fields to avoid undesired changes to the CurrencyType. For example, if a value for IsActive is not provided, the default (false) is used, which could result in a currently active CurrencyType becoming inactive.
