Problem

Show or hide the currency switch at the offer sheet.

Solution

In order to show or hide the change currency switch at the offer sheet we have to add or remove 2 setup keys, respectively. These are:

  • AlternativeCurrencyCode
  • AlternativeCurrencySymbol

If the default currency setup keys are not present, they are created (when first accessed) with the "€" and "EUR" values, as for symbol and code respectively, at the following setup keys:

  • DefaultCurrencyCode
  • DefaultCurrencySymbol


If the AlternativeCurrencyCode setup key exists then the currency switch will show up and can be used to convert all the values at the offer sheet to the alternative currency.

This conversion only applies at the presentation level and is not carried to the backend when saving the offer.

Steps to add/remove the setup keys
  1. Go to the OD Setup Page (SetupEntities/List/Administration/Setup)
  2. Add or Remove the AlternativeCurrencyCode and AlternativeCurrencySymbol keys with their respective values (examples below):
    1. Entity Key: AlternativeCurrencyCode, Entity Value: EUR
    2. Entity Key: AlternativeCurrencySymbol, Entity Value: €

For example for the Ukrainian currency the keys must have the following values:

  • AlternativeCurrencyCode: UAH
  • AlternativeCurrencySymbol: ₴
