OCR is confused between SGD and USD (dollar).

Sometimes the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software will translate dollar into United States Dollar (USD). This is the case if the invoice mentions the $ sign. $ is the official sign for USD. It is thus logical that our OCR translates $ into USD.

The official sign for Singapore Dollar is S$ or SGD. We thus advise you to contact your business partners and suggest them to use the S$ or the SGD sign.

You can in any case still manually adapt the currency from USD to SGD.
