How would a per patron setting work? Our currency rates can't be kept updated automatically, would this be reliable enough? (In reply to Katrin Fischer from comment #1) > How would a per patron setting work? > > Our currency rates can't be kept updated automatically, would this be > reliable enough? It's just an idea, and should be more disscussed. It should be probably done only in OPAC. But there is always question if there is a use case for this - maybe international libraries? Or if there are any countries with more currencies used? Automatic rates update could be possible with Finance::Quote->currency http://search.cpan.org/~ecocode/Finance-Quote-1.47/lib/Finance/Quote.pm (In reply to Katrin Fischer from comment #3) > Linking bug 3758 :) Thanks, I didn't know it exists ;) I feel like this would be a big change as it would require recalculating all amounts displayed to the user according to their selected currency. This is a big amount of work and would only make sense if the library accepts different currencies. Also different exchange rates might apply. Should this be WONTFIX? |
