Problems with default currencie !


Recommended Posts

From 1st January our country is using new currencie - EURO.

Thats why in my store for six months must be two currencies Latvian Lats and EUROS.

 

Now when clients open my site,they see default currencie - Latvian Lat

But i need EURO in start page

 

In back office when i am trying to switch Euro as default currencies , all prices calculates wrong !

Thats why i must rewrite all 400 product prices manually :(

 

Is it possible to do something with that?

 

Thanks !

you can change prices with one sql query, but the question is for what kind of prices you want to change it.

i suppose that something like this:

 

for example, you've got product with actual price 30 latvian lats, now you changing default currency to EUR.

It's time to run query now.  

1 lat = 1.43 eur - you wan to change price to: 30*1,43= 42,94 

 

am I right?

Example-!N

ow I've got a default price 7.03 LVL   ! In Euros it is 10 € ! 

 

When change default currencie to euro- now it shows default curencie euro -  7.03 €  and 4.94 Lats. 

 

But i need  10 € and 7.03 Lats !

that's why you have to run some sql query to increase "prices" depending on simple math calculation

 

price_now = 7.03

price_after = 10.00

currency rate = 1.42

 

price_now * currency rate = price_after 

 

so we have to increase all prices (for each of product in your store)  in that way
