Comment 1 for bug 2066110

I have made this feature when historical country already switched to EUR, so they were major.
This is what the preset country have to be used for, just after the switch, for people to get back to FRF, DEM.

Meanwhile, internally this feature just apply an exchange rate to amount: amount * exchangerate, and format using what you have input.

So for example, in you live in Denmark:
1DKK = 0.13 EUR

So just input 0.13 in the exchange rate
and deploy format > customize to input € symbol and other stuff.

I should probably:
- document this more clearly
- make a FAQ
- rework the interface to be more accurate for this use case
