Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi @AManolaki,

It looks like this field (Turnover) was created as a single-line text field: [Understand property field types in HubSpot](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/properties/property-field-types-in-hubspot)

That means that HubSpot will not look at the values like numbers (numerically) but simply sort it alphabetically. Alphabetically, descending, 90,000 comes before 70 comes before 5,000,000.

You would have to create a field with the property type number to be able to sort this correctly: [Create and edit properties](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/properties/create-and-edit-properties)

Best regards

Hello @AManolaki just seen your question and I’ll try and answer it.  
1. Basically just navigate to the settings tab on the top right side of your HubSpot account  
2. Look for the “Account Management” section on the left tab;  
3. Click on the “Account Defaults” tab.  
4. Go to the “Currency” tab  
5. Check if your current Currency is in $

6. Then, set your Currency to £ by clicking on “Edit company currency”  
Hope it helps

@AManolaki you can change the currency in the settings: [Add and edit your account currencies](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/object-settings/add-and-edit-your-account-currencies)

It’s not possible to have one field reflect multiple currencies.

When you create the number property, you can choose whether it should be formatted as a currency or not:
