Description Vinod 2018-02-01 05:34:24 UTC

System picks Active currency by default while adding suggestion to vendor though during purchase suggestion through staff client, currency is different than active. This creates problem while putting suggestions inside the vendor and staff needs to again select the correct currency.

Tested on Koha Version 16.11.11 on Debian


1. Make active currency say "USD"
2. Make a purchase suggestion from staff client on behalf of any user and select currency different than active currency say "GBP"
3. Now enter the above suggestion in a basket.
4. See the currency by default is "GBP" while it should be "USD"


Above may create problem for staff to find the correct currency again and it takes time too.

Hi Vinod, 

Can you please test on 17.11.

This bug is still valid on master.

Comment 3 Vinod 2019-02-09 16:43:20 UTC

I think in test plan point number 4 I have written wronglly. I mean whatever currency is enter in purchase suggestion same must be shown after adding in vendor/basket. But at present it shows default currency which creates confusion and chance of big mistake for librarian's.

Hi Vinod, I understood - it's what I see on master. It shows the default on the order when it should be using what was set on the suggestion.

Comment 5 Katrin Fischer 2022-07-20 09:44:38 UTC

Still valid on current master. The currency selected on the suggestion form is not used on ordering leading to wrong price calculations.
