There are two places to look.
First, in the Security editor, the securities usually default to 10000 in
the fraction column, tho you may have selected 1 if you knew that you were
not going to trade fractional shares.
Second, when you set up the security account under your brokerage account
you would normally select "Use Commodity Value".
Then, if you only have one currency in your data this will be a mystery.
