Powerstore4 for canadian customer

Store is for company basedin Canada but, Sells to Us and Canadian customers. Store is currently in US dollars and paypal is set to canadian. Paypal is not converting on all sales for some reason. Is it possible for the store to adjust the currency by country? if the answer is now, then how do we update your store to be all Canadian currency?

Thank you,

paypal wont convert the currency on a country by country basis.


You can change paypal to send the transaction using CAD instead of USD by editing the code in the webassist/plugins/shopping_cart/process_transaction.php file


. Look for the following line:

$PP_DirectPayment_required[0][$nextIndex] = "Currency";
$PP_DirectPayment_required[1][$nextIndex] = "USD";


and change it to:
$PP_DirectPayment_required[0][$nextIndex] = "Currency";
$PP_DirectPayment_required[1][$nextIndex] = "CAD";

Powerstore 4 canadian customer

Changing the "USD" to "CAD" will make the store always charge in canadian no matter if the customer is from the US or canada, is this correct?

Is their a way to make the store recognize both?

No, you will need to process the transactions using one or the other.

RE: Powerstore 4 for Canadian based companies

Will their be an update soon that will allow for a canadian based company to make sales in US and Canadian dollars?

No, power store will support changing the currency dynamically like this. You will need to configure poser store to use one currency for all transactions.

$PP_DirectPayment_required[1][$nextIndex] = "CAD";  



Will this also work for:

  $PP_DirectPayment_required[0][$nextIndex] = "Currency";
$PP_DirectPayment_required[1][$nextIndex] = "&pound";  


?

Thanks

for the pound, the three letter currency code is GBP:

$PP_DirectPayment_required[0][$nextIndex] = "Currency";
$PP_DirectPayment_required[1][$nextIndex] = "GBP";
