Change your account region

Changing your account region adjusts the time, date, currencies, and numbers in your Shopify admin to match the standard formatting of the region that you choose.

If the currency of your chosen account region doesn't match yourstore currency, then the currency code of your store currency displays next to any monetary values in your admin. For example, when the store currency and account region both use USD, a monetary value of 100 would display in your admin as "$100". If the store currency is USD and the account region uses EUR, then a monetary value of 100 would display as "USD 100".
