Feature Overview:
This update introduces a specialized Currency configuration for Integer and Decimal properties. Users can now define monetary fields that automatically display with professional formatting, including dollar signs and thousands separators (e.g., $34,900.22). This ensures financial data is presented clearly and consistently across the entire platform, from initial data entry to final printed tickets and reports.
